3
00:01:34.761 --> 00:01:37.806
- You may be seated.
4
00:01:39.140 --> 00:01:40.600
You know,
5
00:01:40.600 --> 00:01:43.395
when some comedians
start off their set,
6
00:01:43.395 --> 00:01:45.271
they will say something like,
7
00:01:45.271 --> 00:01:49.067
"Let me tell you
a little bit about me."
8
00:01:49.067 --> 00:01:51.194
Well, this...
9
00:01:51.194 --> 00:01:53.029
is my version...
10
00:01:53.029 --> 00:01:54.280
of that.
11
00:02:08.253 --> 00:02:11.798
My mother had me
when she was 42.
12
00:02:13.883 --> 00:02:16.845
Because before that age,
she was...
13
00:02:18.930 --> 00:02:21.433
- busy.
14
00:02:22.934 --> 00:02:25.770
See, my mother
made the money in our house.
15
00:02:25.770 --> 00:02:29.774
She was 12 years older
than my father
16
00:02:29.774 --> 00:02:31.651
and refused...
17
00:02:32.485 --> 00:02:34.487
to legally marry him.
18
00:02:36.906 --> 00:02:39.993
What does being a woman
mean to me?
19
00:02:42.787 --> 00:02:45.457
It means being a man.
20
00:02:48.418 --> 00:02:50.337
In our house,
when Mother kissed us goodnight,
21
00:02:50.337 --> 00:02:53.089
- she kissed us twice.
22
00:02:53.089 --> 00:02:55.300
Once for the evening and...
23
00:02:56.718 --> 00:02:59.304
once to make up for not
being there the next day.
24
00:03:01.097 --> 00:03:03.975
But don’t fret on me,
Los Angeles, no.
25
00:03:03.975 --> 00:03:06.644
See, I was raised
by my real mom.
26
00:03:06.644 --> 00:03:08.355
Mi madre real.
27
00:03:09.939 --> 00:03:12.275
Gloria Lopez Cabrera.
28
00:03:12.275 --> 00:03:16.279
- That's right, she taught me
everything that I know.
29
00:03:16.279 --> 00:03:20.158
She is the reason why
when I burn my hand,
30
00:03:20.158 --> 00:03:22.327
instead of saying, "Ow!"
31
00:03:22.327 --> 00:03:25.288
I say, (hisses) "Ay!"
32
00:03:28.667 --> 00:03:30.335
But let's go back even further.
33
00:03:30.335 --> 00:03:33.213
The year was 1995,
34
00:03:33.213 --> 00:03:36.049
and Mommy and Daddy
wanted a boy.
35
00:03:36.049 --> 00:03:40.053
So genetic engineers
sorted through my father's...
36
00:03:41.346 --> 00:03:43.181
- genetic material...
37
00:03:43.807 --> 00:03:46.059
and eliminated
all of the sperm
38
00:03:46.059 --> 00:03:48.144
with the XX
39
00:03:48.144 --> 00:03:51.523
"female" chromosomes.
40
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:55.485
All but one.
41
00:03:58.196 --> 00:04:01.991
Nine months later,
Mama's little boy arrived a girl
42
00:04:01.991 --> 00:04:03.493
as a reminder to my parents
43
00:04:03.493 --> 00:04:05.203
that if they
wanted to play god,
44
00:04:05.203 --> 00:04:08.206
they'd have to deal
with the devil herself.
45
00:04:15.672 --> 00:04:17.549
So that's why
when people ask me
46
00:04:17.549 --> 00:04:20.427
if it's tough being
a female comedian
47
00:04:20.427 --> 00:04:22.679
so outnumbered by men,
I just tell them,
48
00:04:22.679 --> 00:04:25.348
"Baby, this ain't
my first fuckin' rodeo."
49
00:04:30.061 --> 00:04:32.063
- Let's begin.
50
00:04:33.606 --> 00:04:35.900
Anybody ever done DMT?
51
00:04:39.029 --> 00:04:41.740
Alright...
52
00:04:41.740 --> 00:04:43.908
For those of you who don't know,
53
00:04:43.908 --> 00:04:47.912
DMT is a psychedelic chemical
54
00:04:47.912 --> 00:04:51.249
released in all of our brains...
55
00:04:51.249 --> 00:04:53.752
- when we die.
56
00:04:54.919 --> 00:04:57.088
Say what you will about the guy,
57
00:04:57.088 --> 00:05:01.134
nice of God to sprinkle
that in there, huh?
58
00:05:01.760 --> 00:05:04.220
He was like, "Yeah,
you know, unfortunately,
59
00:05:04.220 --> 00:05:07.098
human beings,
you guys do, eventually..."
60
00:05:11.269 --> 00:05:14.939
"...have to die. But, uh..."
61
00:05:18.860 --> 00:05:22.280
"...right before you do...
62
00:05:23.907 --> 00:05:26.326
"you're gonna fucking
63
00:05:26.326 --> 00:05:30.121
- live."
64
00:05:31.122 --> 00:05:34.668
Me, I don't do
drugs much anymore
65
00:05:34.668 --> 00:05:38.672
because I smoked
Los Angeles chronic marijuana
66
00:05:38.672 --> 00:05:41.007
four-plus times a day
67
00:05:41.007 --> 00:05:45.011
- during vital stages
of my brain’s development.
68
00:05:45.970 --> 00:05:49.015
So I am what scientists
69
00:05:49.015 --> 00:05:51.518
and doctors have referred to
70
00:05:51.518 --> 00:05:55.522
in several articles
and medical journals as...
71
00:05:55.522 --> 00:05:58.692
"ruined." And my friends,
72
00:05:58.692 --> 00:06:01.319
they try to get me
to do mushrooms
73
00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:03.321
and acid with them.
74
00:06:03.321 --> 00:06:05.782
They say...
75
00:06:05.782 --> 00:06:09.327
that it will expand my mind.
76
00:06:19.838 --> 00:06:23.049
Okay, one time
I saw a spider’s web
77
00:06:23.049 --> 00:06:25.635
with drops of rainwater
caught in it,
78
00:06:25.635 --> 00:06:27.637
and I stared at it so long,
79
00:06:27.637 --> 00:06:31.641
I was one hour
and 45 minutes late to work.
80
00:06:31.641 --> 00:06:35.311
- My boss said, "Hannah,
this is unacceptable.
81
00:06:35.311 --> 00:06:37.856
I expect more from you."
82
00:06:37.856 --> 00:06:40.859
I said, "Miss Valdez...
83
00:06:41.860 --> 00:06:44.529
"who told you to do that?
84
00:06:44.529 --> 00:06:48.033
"We work at a coffee shop
in the epicenter
85
00:06:48.033 --> 00:06:50.910
"of West Hollywood
elitist douchebaggery.
86
00:06:50.910 --> 00:06:54.831
"I serve one purpose
in this establishment.
87
00:06:54.831 --> 00:06:56.875
"I boost the morale
88
00:06:56.875 --> 00:06:59.377
-"of the other baristas.
89
00:06:59.377 --> 00:07:01.588
"I’m comic relief, baby.
90
00:07:01.588 --> 00:07:03.882
"Nothin' more, nothin' less.
91
00:07:03.882 --> 00:07:06.843
"So do you want me
to be on time,
92
00:07:06.843 --> 00:07:10.722
"Or do you want me
to prevent Victoria
93
00:07:10.722 --> 00:07:14.726
from murdering the third lead
on a CW show?"
94
00:07:19.397 --> 00:07:21.399
And second of all...
95
00:07:22.650 --> 00:07:24.652
and most importantly...
96
00:07:28.323 --> 00:07:30.742
the spider’s web is more
97
00:07:30.742 --> 00:07:33.745
than just a habitat
for the spider.
98
00:07:33.745 --> 00:07:37.707
It is designed by nature
as a mechanism for death,
99
00:07:37.707 --> 00:07:41.628
designed to kill,
but what finds itself trapped
100
00:07:41.628 --> 00:07:44.464
in the spider's web but water,
101
00:07:44.464 --> 00:07:46.925
the essence of life?
102
00:07:48.927 --> 00:07:50.887
I looked up from
the spider's web
103
00:07:50.887 --> 00:07:54.432
and saw the sun shining through
a leaf on a tree,
104
00:07:54.432 --> 00:07:56.935
causing it to wither
and fall to the earth dead,
105
00:07:56.935 --> 00:07:59.229
where, ironically,
the tree couldn't have grown
106
00:07:59.229 --> 00:08:02.065
in the first place were it not
for the very same sun
107
00:08:02.065 --> 00:08:03.775
responsible for
the leaf's death.
108
00:08:03.775 --> 00:08:07.278
If I do acid,
I will never come back.
109
00:08:16.621 --> 00:08:19.666
When I die, and I plan to,
110
00:08:19.666 --> 00:08:23.253
I am going to donate
my body to science,
111
00:08:23.253 --> 00:08:27.298
so they can study the effects
drug use has had on my brain.
112
00:08:28.633 --> 00:08:32.345
But mostly, if I'm being honest,
113
00:08:32.345 --> 00:08:34.806
‘cause I think those nerds
deserve to see a 10
114
00:08:34.806 --> 00:08:38.143
- naked in the flesh
for once, am I right?
115
00:08:47.861 --> 00:08:51.114
I smoked all that weed
to take the edge off of
116
00:08:51.114 --> 00:08:55.118
the 40 milligrams
of Adderall I took
117
00:08:55.118 --> 00:08:58.496
every day for six years.
118
00:08:58.496 --> 00:09:01.207
And I'm pretty excited.
119
00:09:01.207 --> 00:09:05.211
The neurodivergentissance
is upon us, folks!
120
00:09:05.211 --> 00:09:09.215
- ADHD is hot right now, y'all.
121
00:09:09.215 --> 00:09:13.136
Woo, ADHD Army, baby!
122
00:09:13.136 --> 00:09:15.555
- Worst army ever.
123
00:09:15.555 --> 00:09:18.350
Everybody's setting their alarm
for p.m. instead of a.m.,
124
00:09:18.350 --> 00:09:21.686
- they missed the damn battle!
125
00:09:22.604 --> 00:09:24.606
The sergeant's like, "Maggots!
126
00:09:26.691 --> 00:09:30.195
- What was I just talkin' about?"
127
00:09:30.195 --> 00:09:32.155
Here's what I think.
128
00:09:32.155 --> 00:09:34.991
I think
the gross overprescription
129
00:09:34.991 --> 00:09:36.868
of amphetamine-based stimulants
130
00:09:36.868 --> 00:09:39.829
to increase productivity
under capitalism
131
00:09:39.829 --> 00:09:43.249
has tricked people into thinking
that everyone has ADHD,
132
00:09:43.249 --> 00:09:45.835
when really,
most people just hate their jobs
133
00:09:45.835 --> 00:09:48.672
- and need to be
high on drugs to do them.
134
00:09:48.672 --> 00:09:51.716
- And--
135
00:09:54.469 --> 00:09:58.264
And when you have ADD and ADHD,
136
00:09:58.264 --> 00:10:00.558
everyone in your life
137
00:10:00.558 --> 00:10:04.104
will tell you that
you should...
138
00:10:05.605 --> 00:10:09.109
- meditate.
139
00:10:10.068 --> 00:10:11.736
In an attempt to gain
140
00:10:11.736 --> 00:10:14.406
some sense of mental control.
141
00:10:14.406 --> 00:10:17.909
But, because I have ADHD,
142
00:10:19.411 --> 00:10:22.622
every time I try to meditate,
143
00:10:23.456 --> 00:10:26.209
the inside of my brain
144
00:10:26.209 --> 00:10:29.254
sounds like this.
145
00:10:59.951 --> 00:11:00.952
♪ Here we go ♪
146
00:11:36.446 --> 00:11:40.033
♪ Let the bodies hit the floor,
let the bodies hit the... ♪
147
00:11:40.742 --> 00:11:44.037
♪ Floor! ♪
148
00:11:44.037 --> 00:11:46.664
- So I don’t do it.
149
00:11:52.003 --> 00:11:55.965
Last week, after 15 years
of seeing my therapist,
150
00:11:55.965 --> 00:11:59.678
she suggested
that I try hypnosis.
151
00:12:06.935 --> 00:12:10.397
Okay, not really landing
with the crowd. No problem.
152
00:12:10.397 --> 00:12:13.900
It’s all good.
I’m gonna go ahead.
153
00:12:15.443 --> 00:12:17.737
- I’m gonna rephrase it for ya.
154
00:12:17.737 --> 00:12:19.614
I have the power to do that.
155
00:12:20.782 --> 00:12:22.534
I’ll go right ahead.
Here we go.
156
00:12:24.369 --> 00:12:26.204
Okay, so last week...
157
00:12:28.707 --> 00:12:31.751
...after 15...
158
00:12:33.545 --> 00:12:35.547
- years...
159
00:12:35.547 --> 00:12:37.382
of seeing...
160
00:12:37.382 --> 00:12:39.884
a medical professional...
161
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:44.097
she suggested...
162
00:12:44.097 --> 00:12:48.018
that I see...
a magician!
163
00:12:56.234 --> 00:12:59.571
So that she could cast
a spell on me!
164
00:13:01.531 --> 00:13:04.367
Let’s be clear.
It should not cost
165
00:13:04.367 --> 00:13:08.079
US dollars to be hypnotized.
166
00:13:08.079 --> 00:13:10.623
It should cost
an eccentric favor.
167
00:13:12.375 --> 00:13:14.085
Like I should go to pay for it
168
00:13:14.085 --> 00:13:15.795
and the hypnotist
should be like,
169
00:13:15.795 --> 00:13:18.256
"Oh no, my child.
170
00:13:18.256 --> 00:13:21.509
"For it is not money
that I seek.
171
00:13:22.427 --> 00:13:26.222
"You must carry a pig
to the top of a mountainside
172
00:13:26.222 --> 00:13:29.726
"and let it drink from
the stream there every day
173
00:13:29.726 --> 00:13:33.480
"at sunset until the full moon!
174
00:13:40.612 --> 00:13:43.490
- Or CashApp.
It was a long year."
175
00:13:43.490 --> 00:13:45.575
I’m like, "Great, what's
your CashApp?" She's like,
176
00:13:45.575 --> 00:13:47.786
"Oh, it’s just my name."
I'm like, "Okay, well,
what’s your name?"
177
00:13:47.786 --> 00:13:49.913
She's like,
"Oh, it's actually..."
178
00:13:57.545 --> 00:13:59.964
But enough about me.
179
00:13:59.964 --> 00:14:02.008
Let's talk about you!
180
00:14:04.219 --> 00:14:06.137
By round of applause,
181
00:14:06.137 --> 00:14:08.640
how many of you here tonight
182
00:14:08.640 --> 00:14:11.935
genuinely believe
that you are...
183
00:14:11.935 --> 00:14:13.645
a good person.
184
00:14:26.408 --> 00:14:28.952
Okay, seems a bit high, um--
185
00:14:30.495 --> 00:14:32.664
Listen, I'm with the folks
who didn't clap.
186
00:14:32.664 --> 00:14:35.834
I, uh, I know
for a fact that I'm not...
187
00:14:35.834 --> 00:14:37.627
a good person.
188
00:14:37.627 --> 00:14:40.380
I'm really only
a good person on paper.
189
00:14:40.380 --> 00:14:43.049
You know, like, um,
like I’m a vegan,
190
00:14:43.049 --> 00:14:46.845
I drive a Prius,
voted for Bernie Sanders.
191
00:14:46.845 --> 00:14:47.971
Thrice.
192
00:14:47.971 --> 00:14:51.307
But I didn’t do
any of those things
193
00:14:51.307 --> 00:14:53.685
out of the goodness of my heart,
you know?
194
00:14:53.685 --> 00:14:55.562
I mean, what,
you think I’m a vegan
195
00:14:55.562 --> 00:14:58.815
because I care about
the lives of innocent,
196
00:14:58.815 --> 00:15:02.027
voiceless animals
slaughtered every day? No!
197
00:15:03.194 --> 00:15:05.363
No, I’m a vegan
198
00:15:05.363 --> 00:15:08.575
because I wanted
to reduce my risk
199
00:15:08.575 --> 00:15:12.037
of getting cancer,
but didn't wanna give up
200
00:15:12.037 --> 00:15:13.830
huffing paint.
201
00:15:16.833 --> 00:15:18.668
You think I drive a Prius
202
00:15:18.668 --> 00:15:21.171
because I care
about the environment?
203
00:15:21.171 --> 00:15:25.717
45 bucks for the whole tank,
my guy!
204
00:15:25.717 --> 00:15:29.429
- Money!
205
00:15:29.429 --> 00:15:31.014
You think I voted for Bernie
206
00:15:31.014 --> 00:15:33.183
because he'd been
on the right side of history
207
00:15:33.183 --> 00:15:35.101
since the beginning
of his political career
208
00:15:35.101 --> 00:15:38.271
and that a Sanders presidency
would uplift the most neglected
209
00:15:38.271 --> 00:15:41.107
and deserving Americans
on the dollar of the 1%
210
00:15:41.107 --> 00:15:45.236
- and evil corporations? No!
211
00:15:45.236 --> 00:15:49.240
I voted for him
because he had the best body.
212
00:15:54.746 --> 00:15:58.583
- Bernie Sanders,
I love that crazy guy.
213
00:15:58.583 --> 00:16:01.544
He emails me!
Signed up for the blast.
214
00:16:01.544 --> 00:16:05.382
And, uh, those subject lines
are out of fucking pocket.
215
00:16:06.925 --> 00:16:10.136
Bernie emailed me last week, and
the subject line was literally,
216
00:16:10.136 --> 00:16:13.723
"Hannah, it's not good!"
I was like,
217
00:16:13.723 --> 00:16:15.767
yeah, we know.
218
00:16:21.272 --> 00:16:24.067
In 1949, a man
named Alfred Steferud
219
00:16:24.067 --> 00:16:26.986
wrote an article in
the USDA Journal of Agriculture,
220
00:16:26.986 --> 00:16:30.740
and in it, he recommended
that city and urban planners
221
00:16:30.740 --> 00:16:34.744
only plant trees
of the male variety
222
00:16:34.744 --> 00:16:36.788
because he said,
"Trees of the female variety
223
00:16:36.788 --> 00:16:39.082
"littered cumbersome
seeds and fruit
224
00:16:39.082 --> 00:16:41.626
that made
the streets unbecoming."
225
00:16:42.961 --> 00:16:46.965
So, of course, in America
in 1949, they were like,
226
00:16:46.965 --> 00:16:50.427
"Ew! We don't want
these bitch trees..."
227
00:16:51.845 --> 00:16:55.849
"...to get their periods
on the sidewalk!"
228
00:16:57.934 --> 00:16:59.477
"Gross!"
229
00:17:03.064 --> 00:17:05.984
And so, it was done.
If you can believe it,
230
00:17:05.984 --> 00:17:08.653
in 1949, in cities
across this country,
231
00:17:08.653 --> 00:17:11.823
almost exclusively
male trees were planted,
232
00:17:11.823 --> 00:17:14.159
where the number of people
with seasonal allergies
233
00:17:14.159 --> 00:17:16.661
at the time was 15 million.
234
00:17:16.661 --> 00:17:20.665
That number today
is upwards of 230 million,
235
00:17:20.665 --> 00:17:22.167
and no one...
236
00:17:23.001 --> 00:17:24.836
has them worse...
237
00:17:26.087 --> 00:17:28.673
than me. I am allergic
238
00:17:28.673 --> 00:17:30.842
to pollen, dust, gluten, dairy,
239
00:17:30.842 --> 00:17:33.678
all animals with fur, feathers,
grass, stone fruit,
240
00:17:33.678 --> 00:17:37.223
medical contrast, amoxicillin,
red dye number 40,
241
00:17:37.223 --> 00:17:39.184
and, according to my ex,
242
00:17:39.184 --> 00:17:42.228
- the touch of a man. Now...
243
00:17:51.363 --> 00:17:55.033
We all know that trees filter
toxic chemicals in the air
244
00:17:55.033 --> 00:17:57.077
through pores in their leaves
245
00:17:57.077 --> 00:18:00.163
and rerelease cleaner air.
246
00:18:00.163 --> 00:18:03.375
But what I've gathered
everyone tonight to discuss...
247
00:18:05.543 --> 00:18:07.879
...is where the chemicals
248
00:18:07.879 --> 00:18:11.549
that the trees absorb end up.
249
00:18:12.467 --> 00:18:15.345
- Well...
250
00:18:15.345 --> 00:18:19.307
if we had planted girl trees,
251
00:18:20.058 --> 00:18:22.060
who don't...
252
00:18:22.060 --> 00:18:24.938
produce pollen...
253
00:18:24.938 --> 00:18:27.899
at all...
254
00:18:27.899 --> 00:18:30.527
And a hush fell over the crowd.
Yeah!
255
00:18:30.527 --> 00:18:33.071
The chemicals would've been
transferred to the seeds
256
00:18:33.071 --> 00:18:36.074
that fall off the trees
and roll down into the gutter,
257
00:18:36.074 --> 00:18:39.411
but since we had to plant
258
00:18:39.411 --> 00:18:42.997
- these fuck-ass boy trees!
259
00:18:43.957 --> 00:18:47.085
Guess where the chemicals
260
00:18:47.085 --> 00:18:51.089
that the trees absorb end up?
261
00:18:53.717 --> 00:18:55.427
In the pollen.
262
00:19:02.267 --> 00:19:04.602
You wanna talk to me
263
00:19:04.602 --> 00:19:07.605
about toxic masculinity?
264
00:19:10.608 --> 00:19:13.570
You guys are breathing
in a tide pod
265
00:19:13.570 --> 00:19:16.781
every time you walk out
the front door!
266
00:19:16.781 --> 00:19:19.409
And I’m not the type of person
267
00:19:19.409 --> 00:19:23.288
to bring up a problem
without proposing a solution.
268
00:19:24.456 --> 00:19:27.125
And I think it’s pretty clear
in this case.
269
00:19:31.296 --> 00:19:34.632
- Goodnight!
No, can you imagine?
270
00:19:39.471 --> 00:19:42.474
We gotta kill all those trees.
Listen!
271
00:19:42.474 --> 00:19:44.601
I’m not talkin' about
272
00:19:44.601 --> 00:19:47.270
the trees in
the wild, baby! No!
273
00:19:47.270 --> 00:19:49.647
I'm not talking about them.
They operate under a system
274
00:19:49.647 --> 00:19:52.108
so intricate, I do not have
the time to get into it.
275
00:19:52.108 --> 00:19:54.819
"No, Hannah,
please get into it!" Okay!
276
00:19:56.821 --> 00:20:00.825
Trees in the wild operate under
essentially botanical communism.
277
00:20:00.825 --> 00:20:03.161
They distribute nutrients
through their roots
278
00:20:03.161 --> 00:20:05.205
based on which tree needs what.
279
00:20:05.205 --> 00:20:08.875
Trees here will warn trees miles
and miles away of predators,
280
00:20:08.875 --> 00:20:10.794
so that those trees
can emit a substance
281
00:20:10.794 --> 00:20:12.379
that makes
their bark taste weird.
282
00:20:12.379 --> 00:20:14.297
That's right.
They're sending messages.
283
00:20:14.297 --> 00:20:17.676
Messages underground.
Trees have access to language.
284
00:20:17.676 --> 00:20:21.513
And you guys are just
sleeping at night? I'm up!
285
00:20:25.392 --> 00:20:28.019
Trees in the wild
are intricate societies,
286
00:20:28.019 --> 00:20:31.022
all helmed upon the power
of the feminine mother trees,
287
00:20:31.022 --> 00:20:32.857
and we must protect them.
288
00:20:32.857 --> 00:20:36.653
- But these city fuck boys?
289
00:20:36.653 --> 00:20:41.366
What could they possibly
be talking about down there?
290
00:20:41.366 --> 00:20:44.077
- They're all men.
291
00:20:44.077 --> 00:20:45.537
It probably sounds
like an episode
292
00:20:45.537 --> 00:20:48.164
of "The Joe Rogan Experience."
293
00:20:48.164 --> 00:20:51.209
- Kill them!
294
00:20:58.091 --> 00:21:01.052
And the bees
are working overtime!
295
00:21:01.052 --> 00:21:05.515
I saw a bee pollinating
a flower 11:45 at night.
296
00:21:05.515 --> 00:21:09.060
- I said, "Clock out, king,
you're working too hard!"
297
00:21:09.060 --> 00:21:11.730
Oh, my God!
Bees are pathetic!
298
00:21:11.730 --> 00:21:13.606
"Gotta work, gotta work,
gotta work for the queen,
gotta work for the queen."
299
00:21:13.606 --> 00:21:17.402
- She doesn't think
about you at all!
300
00:21:17.402 --> 00:21:20.405
Save the bees? Yeah,
301
00:21:20.405 --> 00:21:24.409
from a polyamorous
monarchical tyrant!
302
00:21:44.596 --> 00:21:45.805
Fifteen more minutes of this?
303
00:21:50.685 --> 00:21:52.771
No, but we do. We do have
to save the bees, you guys.
304
00:21:52.771 --> 00:21:55.273
In all seriousness.
No bees?
305
00:21:57.400 --> 00:21:59.444
No crops.
306
00:22:00.612 --> 00:22:02.364
No crops?
307
00:22:04.115 --> 00:22:06.451
No food.
308
00:22:07.827 --> 00:22:08.912
No food?
309
00:22:08.912 --> 00:22:10.455
Skinny!
310
00:22:10.455 --> 00:22:12.791
- No! No!
311
00:22:12.791 --> 00:22:14.542
- No!
312
00:22:16.211 --> 00:22:17.545
No.
313
00:22:19.005 --> 00:22:21.841
No, we gotta save them.
We gotta save them.
314
00:22:21.841 --> 00:22:25.595
Um, and they are being--
They are being killed,
315
00:22:25.595 --> 00:22:28.473
and really, mostly, it's climate
change killing the bees, folks.
316
00:22:28.473 --> 00:22:31.476
I hate to-- I hate to say it,
but it's the truth.
317
00:22:32.852 --> 00:22:35.480
Climate change is here.
318
00:22:35.480 --> 00:22:38.024
It's not happening soon.
It's happening now.
319
00:22:40.276 --> 00:22:43.321
- Tonight, tonight, tonight.
320
00:22:43.321 --> 00:22:45.073
Everything must go.
321
00:22:46.658 --> 00:22:49.953
And humanity is,
322
00:22:49.953 --> 00:22:51.663
aside from everyone
in this room...
323
00:22:59.838 --> 00:23:02.340
Humanity is a toxic...
324
00:23:03.550 --> 00:23:06.344
abusive...
325
00:23:06.344 --> 00:23:08.680
- husband.
326
00:23:08.680 --> 00:23:11.850
And climate change
327
00:23:11.850 --> 00:23:15.395
is just Planet Earth...
328
00:23:18.064 --> 00:23:20.400
recognizing...
329
00:23:21.359 --> 00:23:23.862
her worth
330
00:23:25.697 --> 00:23:28.366
and filing for a divorce.
331
00:23:28.366 --> 00:23:31.161
And you wanna know what I think?
As a friend.
332
00:23:31.161 --> 00:23:34.831
- Good for her! Good for her.
333
00:23:34.831 --> 00:23:38.376
- I imagine Planet Earth
334
00:23:38.376 --> 00:23:42.255
on the 11th story
of a New York City
apartment building,
335
00:23:42.255 --> 00:23:46.551
throwing humanity's
shit out of the window
336
00:23:46.551 --> 00:23:49.429
onto the sidewalk
like Marisa Tomei
337
00:23:49.429 --> 00:23:52.098
- in "My Cousin Vinny."
338
00:23:52.098 --> 00:23:53.725
Just goin'...
339
00:23:53.725 --> 00:23:57.312
"4.5 billion years
I put into this!
340
00:23:58.229 --> 00:24:00.732
"And what? You think
you could just pollute me
341
00:24:00.732 --> 00:24:04.402
without protection, and then
move on to another planet?"
342
00:24:06.446 --> 00:24:09.240
"G'head! G'head!
343
00:24:09.240 --> 00:24:12.410
"You wanna go to Mars?
Go to Mars!
344
00:24:12.410 --> 00:24:16.414
"Frack that bitch for all
she's fuckin' worth!
345
00:24:16.414 --> 00:24:19.584
"Which, by the way,
is fuckin' nothing!
346
00:24:19.584 --> 00:24:22.253
"She can't give you
half of what I gave you!
347
00:24:22.253 --> 00:24:25.632
"She doesn't even have water.
Me? I'm 71%
348
00:24:25.632 --> 00:24:28.468
"and fuckin' rising,
thanks to you,
349
00:24:28.468 --> 00:24:31.763
you fuckin' bastard!"
350
00:24:54.786 --> 00:24:57.497
-"I cook for you.
351
00:24:57.497 --> 00:24:59.624
"I clean for you.
352
00:24:59.624 --> 00:25:03.503
"I put a roof over your head,
and what have you given me, huh?
353
00:25:04.838 --> 00:25:07.465
"Couple of ex-cons doin'
a beach day clean-up
354
00:25:07.465 --> 00:25:10.885
"from 11 to 3 on Saturdays?
Fuck you!"
355
00:25:11.636 --> 00:25:13.638
Don't worry, guys, it's just me.
356
00:25:16.057 --> 00:25:17.308
That...
357
00:25:25.233 --> 00:25:26.860
That was the Earth.
358
00:25:28.653 --> 00:25:31.656
Now, this...
359
00:25:33.366 --> 00:25:35.660
...is the sun.
360
00:25:35.660 --> 00:25:37.704
That was the Earth.
361
00:25:37.704 --> 00:25:39.831
This...
362
00:25:39.831 --> 00:25:42.375
- is the sun. Here we go.
363
00:25:47.756 --> 00:25:49.507
Don't look at me!
364
00:25:49.507 --> 00:25:52.427
- Okay, so that was the sun.
365
00:25:53.261 --> 00:25:54.804
Now...
366
00:25:56.890 --> 00:25:58.433
this...
367
00:26:01.186 --> 00:26:02.979
is the moon.
368
00:26:25.877 --> 00:26:28.129
Hello...
369
00:26:30.423 --> 00:26:31.716
Oh!
370
00:26:32.717 --> 00:26:34.719
Did you just notice me?
371
00:26:36.763 --> 00:26:39.224
I’ve been watching you.
372
00:26:41.059 --> 00:26:44.062
I’ve been here since 3 p.m.
373
00:26:47.649 --> 00:26:49.901
Tell me.
374
00:26:51.736 --> 00:26:54.197
How does it feel
375
00:26:54.197 --> 00:26:57.283
to be warmed by
the glow of the sun?
376
00:27:02.997 --> 00:27:05.041
I’m so cold.
377
00:27:11.423 --> 00:27:13.925
Now, bleed! Bleed!
378
00:27:14.843 --> 00:27:17.554
I don’t know, I just get
that vibe from her.
379
00:27:24.269 --> 00:27:25.729
Would you believe it,
that reminded me
380
00:27:25.729 --> 00:27:27.439
of something
totally unrelated?
381
00:27:30.567 --> 00:27:32.068
I’d like to share with you now
382
00:27:32.068 --> 00:27:35.113
a recently resurfaced
repressed memory of mine.
383
00:27:37.615 --> 00:27:39.159
The year was 2009.
384
00:27:39.159 --> 00:27:41.453
My day started the way
it always did.
385
00:27:41.453 --> 00:27:42.954
I was 15 years old.
386
00:27:42.954 --> 00:27:44.789
I woke up with
a slamming migraine.
387
00:27:44.789 --> 00:27:47.917
I took my Adderall with coffee
to make it subside.
388
00:27:47.917 --> 00:27:49.502
I drove to school,
389
00:27:49.502 --> 00:27:52.255
where I smoked weed
in the parking lot with a kid
390
00:27:52.255 --> 00:27:54.174
whose legal government name
391
00:27:54.174 --> 00:27:56.634
was Legend Waters.
392
00:27:59.971 --> 00:28:02.140
And I came to
393
00:28:02.849 --> 00:28:06.353
while sitting in
my 7th period English class.
394
00:28:09.522 --> 00:28:11.149
When, suddenly...
395
00:28:13.151 --> 00:28:16.446
I felt the concave seat
396
00:28:16.446 --> 00:28:19.491
of my desk chair
397
00:28:19.491 --> 00:28:21.993
fill to the brim
398
00:28:23.411 --> 00:28:26.373
- with a mystery liquid.
399
00:28:26.373 --> 00:28:29.834
I ran through the list of what
it could be. Number one...
400
00:28:30.835 --> 00:28:33.505
- number one.
401
00:28:33.505 --> 00:28:35.131
But no, it couldn't be that.
402
00:28:35.131 --> 00:28:37.175
I would've understood
that that needed to happen.
403
00:28:37.175 --> 00:28:39.386
Well, the only other liquid
404
00:28:39.386 --> 00:28:41.012
that had been
produced by my body
405
00:28:41.012 --> 00:28:43.890
up until this point
in time was...
406
00:28:43.890 --> 00:28:47.394
tears, but I was on such
407
00:28:47.394 --> 00:28:50.480
a high dose of Adderall,
that sort of emotional range
408
00:28:50.480 --> 00:28:52.899
would not have been
possible at the time.
409
00:28:54.818 --> 00:28:55.985
Finally,
410
00:28:55.985 --> 00:28:58.071
I looked down,
411
00:28:58.071 --> 00:29:00.073
and I saw...
412
00:29:01.032 --> 00:29:03.034
- blood.
413
00:29:07.038 --> 00:29:10.208
- I thought, dear God.
414
00:29:10.208 --> 00:29:12.711
This could only be one thing.
415
00:29:16.089 --> 00:29:18.508
- My liver is failing!
416
00:29:18.508 --> 00:29:20.844
Yeah, I thought
my liver was failing
417
00:29:20.844 --> 00:29:23.680
because I was really into
the hospital drama "House"
418
00:29:23.680 --> 00:29:25.223
- at the time.
419
00:29:25.223 --> 00:29:27.767
That's always what that means
420
00:29:27.767 --> 00:29:29.686
on that show.
421
00:29:31.771 --> 00:29:34.691
But, no. This was it.
422
00:29:34.691 --> 00:29:37.235
In a room full of people,
423
00:29:37.235 --> 00:29:38.570
I was alone.
424
00:29:38.570 --> 00:29:41.906
I couldn't use my cell phone
425
00:29:41.906 --> 00:29:43.783
to text a friend
426
00:29:43.783 --> 00:29:46.578
because I didn't have
a cell phone,
427
00:29:46.578 --> 00:29:49.414
- and I didn't have friends.
428
00:29:49.414 --> 00:29:51.875
So I sat there,
429
00:29:51.875 --> 00:29:56.212
in a pool of my own blood,
430
00:29:56.212 --> 00:29:58.757
not moving a muscle,
431
00:29:58.757 --> 00:30:01.217
not making a sound
432
00:30:01.217 --> 00:30:05.555
for an hour and 45 minutes,
433
00:30:05.555 --> 00:30:07.432
until it was safe.
434
00:30:07.432 --> 00:30:09.642
The bell rang.
Mrs. Deaver said,
435
00:30:09.642 --> 00:30:13.271
"Ah, ah, ah! Class is not over
when the bell rings.
436
00:30:13.271 --> 00:30:16.775
Class is over
when I dismiss you."
437
00:30:16.775 --> 00:30:18.777
What a cunt.
438
00:30:20.820 --> 00:30:23.114
- What?
439
00:30:23.114 --> 00:30:24.949
The bell rang.
440
00:30:32.332 --> 00:30:34.292
Finally, she let the class go.
441
00:30:34.292 --> 00:30:35.835
All the students rushed out,
442
00:30:35.835 --> 00:30:39.464
aside from one who stayed behind
to ask Mrs. Deaver a question,
443
00:30:39.464 --> 00:30:41.424
and she approached
her desk to do it,
444
00:30:41.424 --> 00:30:44.344
blocking me from sight.
This was my out.
445
00:30:44.344 --> 00:30:47.806
I slid outta there
like butter on hot toast.
446
00:30:47.806 --> 00:30:49.974
- I slid outta there
447
00:30:49.974 --> 00:30:52.143
like a 110-pound teenage girl
448
00:30:52.143 --> 00:30:54.688
covered in blood.
449
00:30:57.315 --> 00:30:59.984
But I was now faced
with a new problem.
450
00:30:59.984 --> 00:31:02.445
I was out in the world,
naked and afraid,
451
00:31:02.445 --> 00:31:04.948
like a newly hatched iguana
on a beach
452
00:31:04.948 --> 00:31:08.118
filled with predatory snakes
blocking my voyage to the ocean,
453
00:31:08.118 --> 00:31:11.329
and thus my freedom.
Vulnerable. And, once again,
454
00:31:11.329 --> 00:31:14.332
- alone. Until...
455
00:31:14.332 --> 00:31:16.960
Rod Shayan approached me.
456
00:31:16.960 --> 00:31:18.503
"Hey, dude," he said.
"What's up?"
457
00:31:18.503 --> 00:31:20.338
I said, "Nothing.
What's up with you?"
458
00:31:20.338 --> 00:31:23.049
He said, "What are you hiding?"
I said, "What are you hiding?"
459
00:31:31.433 --> 00:31:33.351
He turned me around,
460
00:31:33.351 --> 00:31:37.022
and he saw... everything.
461
00:31:37.022 --> 00:31:39.899
He began to laugh.
I began to laugh...
462
00:31:39.899 --> 00:31:42.235
- slash cry.
463
00:31:42.235 --> 00:31:44.779
I said, "Rod,
you have to help me!"
464
00:31:45.613 --> 00:31:47.574
So he stopped laughing,
465
00:31:47.574 --> 00:31:49.200
he took off his hoodie,
466
00:31:49.200 --> 00:31:51.369
he tied it around my waist,
467
00:31:51.369 --> 00:31:53.413
and he walked me
to the principal's office,
468
00:31:53.413 --> 00:31:55.749
helped me call my mom,
469
00:31:55.749 --> 00:31:58.918
and when her car pulled up,
he put me inside.
470
00:31:58.918 --> 00:32:00.587
And just before we drove away,
471
00:32:00.587 --> 00:32:03.006
he bent down next to
the passenger's side window,
472
00:32:03.006 --> 00:32:04.716
and he went like this...
473
00:32:13.975 --> 00:32:16.478
- I rolled it down.
474
00:32:18.563 --> 00:32:19.773
Nah, I'm just kidding.
475
00:32:26.237 --> 00:32:29.032
He said, "Don't worry about it,
dude, I got four sisters.
476
00:32:29.032 --> 00:32:31.242
Definitely stock up
on some chocolate.
I'll see ya tomorrow!"
477
00:32:31.242 --> 00:32:35.080
- And then he tapped
the back of the car?!
478
00:32:35.080 --> 00:32:38.291
Like we were a shipping
container full of goods?
479
00:32:45.632 --> 00:32:47.175
Once a month,
480
00:32:48.968 --> 00:32:51.262
at a time that is random...
481
00:32:53.556 --> 00:32:55.767
and never the same,
482
00:32:57.519 --> 00:33:00.772
I get a pang in my uterus,
483
00:33:00.772 --> 00:33:03.608
I lock eyes with the moon,
484
00:33:03.608 --> 00:33:07.112
and I shed my human skin
485
00:33:07.112 --> 00:33:09.572
and become a beast.
486
00:33:09.572 --> 00:33:12.659
Am I right, ladies?
487
00:33:16.788 --> 00:33:18.623
And there's this thing
in the zeitgeist,
488
00:33:18.623 --> 00:33:20.125
in film and television,
489
00:33:20.125 --> 00:33:22.585
where a woman's being insane,
and a man says,
490
00:33:22.585 --> 00:33:23.962
"Are you on your period?"
491
00:33:23.962 --> 00:33:26.506
And she kicks him
through a glass window.
492
00:33:27.132 --> 00:33:30.260
- And that's her right.
493
00:33:30.260 --> 00:33:32.303
But speaking for myself,
494
00:33:33.138 --> 00:33:34.639
always,
495
00:33:36.349 --> 00:33:37.851
once a month,
496
00:33:39.477 --> 00:33:42.647
I am on the verge
of assassinating
497
00:33:42.647 --> 00:33:45.483
an elected official,
498
00:33:45.483 --> 00:33:48.820
- murder-suicide style.
499
00:33:48.820 --> 00:33:53.033
And then, someone in my life
500
00:33:53.033 --> 00:33:55.660
comes to me, out of the goodness
of their heart,
501
00:33:55.660 --> 00:33:57.370
and they say, "Hey, Hannah!
502
00:34:01.082 --> 00:34:03.710
-"How you doing?
503
00:34:03.710 --> 00:34:05.795
"Totally. So, we just--
504
00:34:05.795 --> 00:34:07.213
"A couple--
We've just been worried.
505
00:34:07.213 --> 00:34:09.382
"We're talking.
We're worried about you.
506
00:34:09.382 --> 00:34:12.010
"Um, we just wanna know
what's up, what's going on
507
00:34:12.010 --> 00:34:14.346
"because we just--
Yeah, we've been
listening to some of the,
508
00:34:14.346 --> 00:34:16.681
"um, just the--
It's not a problem.
509
00:34:16.681 --> 00:34:18.850
"Just some of the stuff
you're doing and saying
510
00:34:18.850 --> 00:34:20.518
"is, is, is frightening.
511
00:34:20.518 --> 00:34:24.189
"So, we just-- And by the way,
this is a dialogue, right?
512
00:34:24.189 --> 00:34:25.648
"We wanna hear from you!
513
00:34:25.648 --> 00:34:27.734
-"But, uh...
514
00:34:27.734 --> 00:34:30.862
"is there any, uh, chance
that you are, um--
515
00:34:30.862 --> 00:34:34.407
"Just 'cause I know
there's, like, um, like a cycle,
516
00:34:34.407 --> 00:34:37.535
there's, like, several,
like, several, um, phases--
517
00:34:37.535 --> 00:34:40.163
"And by the way, by the way,
it's like, I wanna be wrong.
518
00:34:40.163 --> 00:34:42.707
"You know what I'm sayin'?
I want to.
519
00:34:42.707 --> 00:34:44.918
Um, I'm hoping I--
Whoa! Hey now.
520
00:34:44.918 --> 00:34:47.087
"I just wanted to clarify,
521
00:34:47.087 --> 00:34:49.255
"are you, um,
522
00:34:49.255 --> 00:34:52.050
"are you, uh, (exhales)...
523
00:34:52.050 --> 00:34:54.052
a-are you on your period?"
524
00:34:54.052 --> 00:34:56.012
Now, you gotta understand
the entire time
525
00:34:56.012 --> 00:34:58.765
this person is talking to me,
I am feral. I'm fucking--
526
00:35:02.894 --> 00:35:04.396
I'm like Benedict Cumberbatch
527
00:35:04.396 --> 00:35:06.231
doing motion capture
for "The Hobbit."
528
00:35:18.576 --> 00:35:20.578
They're like, "Are you on
your period?" I'm like...
529
00:35:36.636 --> 00:35:38.596
"You know what? Probably.
Wow. Thank you.
530
00:35:38.596 --> 00:35:41.099
"That was-- Wow. You really
helped me with that.
531
00:35:41.099 --> 00:35:43.059
-"That...
532
00:35:43.059 --> 00:35:45.311
-"You, uh...
533
00:35:45.311 --> 00:35:47.230
"You threw a rope down to
the bottom of the well there,
534
00:35:47.230 --> 00:35:49.733
-"didn't you? (laughs) Woo!
535
00:35:49.733 --> 00:35:51.234
"Almost did somethin' bad,
536
00:35:51.234 --> 00:35:54.446
"so thank you, um, for that.
537
00:35:54.446 --> 00:35:56.614
"And by the way, it's like,
now we're asking questions,
538
00:35:56.614 --> 00:35:59.743
"it is a dialogue for sure,
um, do you know
539
00:35:59.743 --> 00:36:03.747
"if a package that is in transit
540
00:36:03.747 --> 00:36:07.292
- can be stopped?
541
00:36:09.169 --> 00:36:10.879
"What's that? Washington.
542
00:36:12.047 --> 00:36:13.590
Let me know. (laughs)"
543
00:36:19.471 --> 00:36:23.475
People come up to me
after the shows, not to brag...
544
00:36:24.517 --> 00:36:26.394
and they always say
the same thing.
545
00:36:29.981 --> 00:36:31.191
They say to me, "Hannah...
546
00:36:34.944 --> 00:36:36.613
How come you hustle so hard?"
547
00:36:37.989 --> 00:36:40.367
They say,
"It seems like with you,
548
00:36:40.367 --> 00:36:43.411
the grind never stops."
549
00:36:47.665 --> 00:36:49.167
I say, it's simple.
550
00:36:50.335 --> 00:36:52.337
There's a reason for that.
551
00:36:52.337 --> 00:36:54.381
It is as follows.
552
00:36:56.508 --> 00:36:58.802
From the ages of 9 to 14,
553
00:36:58.802 --> 00:37:01.805
I was an all-star
competitive cheerleader. Clap!
554
00:37:09.187 --> 00:37:12.232
Now, I hope this goes
without saying,
555
00:37:12.232 --> 00:37:15.902
I have respect for every member
of this audience.
556
00:37:15.902 --> 00:37:19.239
I have respect for the patrons
of the El Rey.
557
00:37:19.239 --> 00:37:21.408
I have respect for the citizens
558
00:37:21.408 --> 00:37:23.243
of the greatest city
on this planet,
559
00:37:23.243 --> 00:37:27.247
- Los Angeles, California.
560
00:37:32.293 --> 00:37:34.796
But hear me when I say...
561
00:37:37.632 --> 00:37:41.553
not one of you motherfuckers
562
00:37:41.553 --> 00:37:45.390
would last half a day
at cheer practice,
563
00:37:45.390 --> 00:37:47.392
- you understand me?!
564
00:37:47.392 --> 00:37:50.729
If the conditioning
didn't break you,
565
00:37:50.729 --> 00:37:54.399
the psychological warfare
surely would.
566
00:37:54.399 --> 00:37:56.234
I don't think you understand.
567
00:37:56.234 --> 00:37:58.028
I had a teammate, Suzanne.
568
00:37:58.028 --> 00:38:00.739
She fell out of the pyramid
during a competition,
569
00:38:00.739 --> 00:38:03.575
and when she got off stage,
she was so angry
570
00:38:03.575 --> 00:38:06.745
that she walked over
to a concrete wall,
571
00:38:06.745 --> 00:38:09.581
kicked it,
and shattered her foot.
572
00:38:09.581 --> 00:38:11.458
Yeah, you know
where she works now?
573
00:38:11.458 --> 00:38:13.043
The Pentagon.
574
00:38:15.128 --> 00:38:17.547
Guess who’s paying
for that six-point deduction
575
00:38:17.547 --> 00:38:18.923
at Nationals?
576
00:38:18.923 --> 00:38:20.925
Libya, probably.
577
00:38:24.429 --> 00:38:27.974
That same competition, another
girl was flying in a stunt.
578
00:38:27.974 --> 00:38:30.477
She wobbled, that's a deduction.
579
00:38:30.477 --> 00:38:33.772
She locked eyes with my coach
in the front row,
580
00:38:33.772 --> 00:38:36.608
and she began to piss...
581
00:38:36.608 --> 00:38:39.319
- in the air...
582
00:38:39.319 --> 00:38:41.363
out of fear.
583
00:38:43.281 --> 00:38:46.951
You wanna talk about
cheerleading's not a sport?
584
00:38:48.286 --> 00:38:51.414
You're right.
It's not a sport.
585
00:38:51.414 --> 00:38:54.459
It's a subsect
of the United States military.
586
00:38:56.169 --> 00:38:58.505
You think I wanna be
doing this, folks?
587
00:38:58.505 --> 00:39:01.633
You think I wanna be
doing stand-up comedy?
588
00:39:01.633 --> 00:39:03.426
This is pathetic!
589
00:39:03.426 --> 00:39:07.389
- I used to be a champion, man!
590
00:39:07.722 --> 00:39:10.141
I tasted glory!
591
00:39:12.394 --> 00:39:14.646
Cheerleading ruined...
592
00:39:14.646 --> 00:39:16.606
my body, okay?
593
00:39:16.606 --> 00:39:20.151
When I bend down,
my knees sound like
594
00:39:20.151 --> 00:39:23.154
a gambling addict
juggling dice.
595
00:39:30.286 --> 00:39:32.706
Oh, does that hurt to hear?
I'm 28!
596
00:39:51.266 --> 00:39:52.684
I'm bisexual.
597
00:39:59.858 --> 00:40:02.861
- That hasn't really been
my experience, um... Hm.
598
00:40:04.279 --> 00:40:05.739
You know,
599
00:40:05.739 --> 00:40:09.200
I would argue
that upwards of 90%
600
00:40:09.200 --> 00:40:11.745
of all comedians get on stage,
601
00:40:11.745 --> 00:40:14.706
and talk almost exclusively
602
00:40:14.706 --> 00:40:16.416
about the difference
603
00:40:16.416 --> 00:40:19.085
between men and women.
604
00:40:21.546 --> 00:40:24.174
But how many of them
605
00:40:24.174 --> 00:40:25.842
actually know?
606
00:40:25.842 --> 00:40:29.721
- I am in the trenches.
I am collecting research.
607
00:40:29.721 --> 00:40:33.058
- I am gathering data.
I'm risking my life!
608
00:40:33.058 --> 00:40:35.393
And I'm here
to tell you, folks,
609
00:40:35.393 --> 00:40:38.063
the results are in!
610
00:40:38.063 --> 00:40:42.025
Men are idiots
and women are annoying!
611
00:40:43.902 --> 00:40:46.863
The battle of the sexes
is a draw!
612
00:40:46.863 --> 00:40:49.908
Fuck you, and fuck you!
613
00:40:53.578 --> 00:40:57.082
All y'all pissing me off.
614
00:41:05.131 --> 00:41:08.885
Bisexuals.
Everybody wants us,
615
00:41:08.885 --> 00:41:12.472
- but no one "wants" us.
616
00:41:12.472 --> 00:41:14.766
The straights
don't claim us.
617
00:41:14.766 --> 00:41:17.268
The queers certainly
don't claim us.
618
00:41:17.268 --> 00:41:20.271
Hey, lesbians!
What did we ever do to you
619
00:41:20.271 --> 00:41:23.233
besides lead you on
and break your heart?
620
00:41:25.110 --> 00:41:27.654
Why are you mad, I wonder?
621
00:41:34.160 --> 00:41:35.662
How else can I say this.
622
00:41:35.662 --> 00:41:41.584
Bisexuals are the Jews
of the LGBTQIA+ community.
623
00:41:41.584 --> 00:41:43.962
- Is that tracking?
624
00:41:43.962 --> 00:41:46.089
Everyone's like,
"Ugh, bisexuals!
625
00:41:46.089 --> 00:41:48.675
"They're just shape-shifting
maniacal villains.
626
00:41:48.675 --> 00:41:52.137
They're not one of us!"
Ring a bell, Jews?
627
00:42:06.818 --> 00:42:09.279
Privacy is hard
to come by these days,
628
00:42:09.279 --> 00:42:12.115
- wouldn't you say, folks?
629
00:42:12.115 --> 00:42:13.992
Wouldn't you say?
I mean,
630
00:42:13.992 --> 00:42:16.870
it's like you can’t even
sit in front of a fountain,
631
00:42:16.870 --> 00:42:18.329
with your head in your hands,
632
00:42:18.329 --> 00:42:21.541
rocking back and forth sobbing
633
00:42:21.541 --> 00:42:23.835
without somebody coming up,
634
00:42:23.835 --> 00:42:25.462
taking a picture,
635
00:42:25.462 --> 00:42:27.630
and captioning it,
"current mood."
636
00:42:27.630 --> 00:42:31.509
- You just can’t get
a moment alone.
637
00:42:33.511 --> 00:42:36.389
And I think social media
has everything to do with this.
638
00:42:36.389 --> 00:42:38.224
I heard a young woman
on the phone the other day.
639
00:42:38.224 --> 00:42:40.769
I think her conversation
proves my point.
640
00:42:43.355 --> 00:42:45.315
"So did I tell you
Mila uninvited me
641
00:42:45.315 --> 00:42:46.900
"to her birthday brunch?
642
00:42:46.900 --> 00:42:48.526
"Yeah, no, I know.
Like, fully criminal.
643
00:42:48.526 --> 00:42:50.153
"It was all set up,
and then the night before,
644
00:42:50.153 --> 00:42:51.529
"she calls me and goes,
sorry, Sav.
645
00:42:51.529 --> 00:42:53.365
"I think I’m just
gonna go with my parents.
646
00:42:54.783 --> 00:42:58.036
-"I mean, I was pissed,
but I didn’t say anything.
647
00:42:58.036 --> 00:42:59.913
"Anyway, the next day, guess
who's in the background

00:42:59.913 --> 00:43:02.374

00:43:05.502 --> 00:43:07.087
"This bitch.

"There’s more.

00:43:09.214 --> 00:43:11.216

a picture of the two of them
with the caption,
653
00:43:11.216 --> 00:43:14.052
"‘Happy birthday to my BFF,
heart star champagne emoji.'
654
00:43:14.052 --> 00:43:16.513
Did she think I wasn't
gonna see it?"
655
00:43:20.725 --> 00:43:24.437
I like to think that
if the same situation
656
00:43:24.437 --> 00:43:27.399
had occurred in,
say, the year...
657
00:43:29.067 --> 00:43:32.237
- 1931...
658
00:43:32.237 --> 00:43:36.241
it would've gone down
a little more like this.
659
00:43:39.619 --> 00:43:41.454
"Hello, Maude?"
"Oh hiya, Blanche!
660
00:43:41.454 --> 00:43:43.039
Say, what’s the news
fit to print?"
661
00:43:43.039 --> 00:43:44.749
"Listen, Maude, you remember
that little soiree
662
00:43:44.749 --> 00:43:46.251
we had planned, dontcha?"
"Oh sure!
663
00:43:46.251 --> 00:43:48.378
You still wearing that
little red number? Hot dog!"
664
00:43:48.378 --> 00:43:49.921
"Well, honey, Mommy and Daddy
say no can do.
665
00:43:49.921 --> 00:43:51.256
Say it'd be better
just the three of us."
666
00:43:51.256 --> 00:43:53.258
"Oh, that’s just fine, Blanche!
Just fine indeed."
667
00:43:53.258 --> 00:43:54.759
"Well, so long!"
"So long!"
668
00:43:54.759 --> 00:43:56.052
And that's it.
669
00:44:02.809 --> 00:44:05.311
Those women go
their separate ways
670
00:44:05.311 --> 00:44:08.231
and figure out what to do
671
00:44:08.231 --> 00:44:10.275
with their very recent
672
00:44:10.275 --> 00:44:13.820
right to vote.
They are busy.
673
00:44:13.820 --> 00:44:16.781
Look, I don't know what it was
like being a woman in the '30s,
674
00:44:16.781 --> 00:44:20.326
and I don't claim to,
but I have cried
675
00:44:20.326 --> 00:44:21.911
while washing the dishes before,
676
00:44:21.911 --> 00:44:23.955
and I think that's close!
677
00:44:37.177 --> 00:44:41.806
I'd like to say something to you
now that we say in my culture.
678
00:44:41.806 --> 00:44:44.309
It is a word that means hello.
679
00:44:45.310 --> 00:44:47.812
It is a word that means peace.
680
00:44:51.024 --> 00:44:54.569
It is a word that means goodbye.
681
00:44:56.571 --> 00:44:58.073
The word, of course,
682
00:44:59.240 --> 00:45:00.742
is shalom.
683
00:45:02.327 --> 00:45:03.995
Shalom in the front.
684
00:45:03.995 --> 00:45:05.497
audience:
Shalom.
685
00:45:06.247 --> 00:45:09.542
- Shalom on the sides.
- audience: Shalom.
686
00:45:09.542 --> 00:45:11.503
Shalom up top.
687
00:45:11.503 --> 00:45:14.631
- audience: Shalom.
688
00:45:14.631 --> 00:45:17.175
Everyone, please,
say it with me.
689
00:45:18.218 --> 00:45:19.219
all:
Shalom.
690
00:45:19.219 --> 00:45:21.805
That is all the Hebrew
that I know.
691
00:45:24.683 --> 00:45:26.810
I’m a bad Jew,
692
00:45:26.810 --> 00:45:30.355
and that fact dawned on me
at a very difficult moment.
693
00:45:32.190 --> 00:45:34.859
I was at my grandmother's
funeral, a Jewish service,
694
00:45:34.859 --> 00:45:38.029
and as it came to a close,
the rabbi signaled to us
695
00:45:38.029 --> 00:45:40.907
to join her in a final prayer.
696
00:45:40.907 --> 00:45:44.452
She and everyone around me
began to sing.
697
00:45:45.203 --> 00:45:46.705
I panicked.
698
00:45:48.206 --> 00:45:50.709
- For I did not know the prayer.
699
00:45:53.086 --> 00:45:55.088
But then...
700
00:45:57.048 --> 00:45:58.550
just then...
701
00:46:00.260 --> 00:46:03.054
the clouds parted,
702
00:46:04.264 --> 00:46:07.017
and as if God himself
703
00:46:07.017 --> 00:46:10.979
shined his light of
knowledge upon me,
704
00:46:12.564 --> 00:46:14.733
I began...
705
00:46:17.402 --> 00:46:19.612
to sing.
706
00:47:53.998 --> 00:47:56.042
But how could I possibly know
the prayer?
707
00:48:07.721 --> 00:48:11.224
The melody.
Every single lyric.
708
00:48:14.185 --> 00:48:16.855
I looked back to the sky.
709
00:48:16.855 --> 00:48:20.191
A single tear
fell from my eye.
710
00:48:20.191 --> 00:48:22.527
And then, I realized.
711
00:48:22.527 --> 00:48:25.989
"Oh, this is just the last song
in 'Schindler's List.'"
712
00:48:43.882 --> 00:48:47.886
And if you can believe it, that
wasn't the strangest thing
713
00:48:47.886 --> 00:48:50.889
that happened that morning
at the cemetery.
714
00:48:50.889 --> 00:48:52.766
Before the service started,
715
00:48:52.766 --> 00:48:55.352
the hearse driver
in charge of the casket
716
00:48:55.352 --> 00:48:59.356
gave my older sibling and I
a tremendous amount of trouble
717
00:48:59.356 --> 00:49:02.734
when we volunteered
not only to be pallbearers,
718
00:49:02.734 --> 00:49:07.906
but to carry the heaviest part
of the casket. The front.
719
00:49:07.906 --> 00:49:11.117
He explained that it was a job
traditionally done by men,
720
00:49:11.117 --> 00:49:13.578
and that we wouldn't be
strong enough.
721
00:49:13.578 --> 00:49:15.080
Now,
722
00:49:15.080 --> 00:49:16.915
I don't wanna body shame,
723
00:49:16.915 --> 00:49:20.210
but this man was a pale,
724
00:49:20.210 --> 00:49:23.254
frail, grim-looking man
725
00:49:23.254 --> 00:49:25.382
with no hair
726
00:49:25.382 --> 00:49:27.967
aside from mutton chops
727
00:49:27.967 --> 00:49:31.429
and shaky, weathered hands.
728
00:49:31.429 --> 00:49:34.766
He looked like if Wolverine
couldn't heal himself.
729
00:49:36.059 --> 00:49:37.769
And something you should know
about my family
730
00:49:37.769 --> 00:49:40.563
that provides context
to the story.
731
00:49:40.563 --> 00:49:42.774
I come from a very queer family.
732
00:49:42.774 --> 00:49:44.275
I am bisexual,
733
00:49:44.275 --> 00:49:46.778
I have two transgender siblings,
734
00:49:46.778 --> 00:49:50.323
my grandmother, who we were
laying to rest that morning,
735
00:49:50.323 --> 00:49:52.117
was an out-and-proud lesbian,
736
00:49:52.117 --> 00:49:55.412
and while my father is straight,
737
00:49:55.412 --> 00:49:57.789
he does cry when Julie Andrews
738
00:49:57.789 --> 00:50:00.333
hits the high note
in "The Sound of Music,"
739
00:50:00.333 --> 00:50:03.461
so what do you call that?
740
00:50:05.755 --> 00:50:08.675
I call it a man you can trust.
741
00:50:17.475 --> 00:50:20.311
My grandmother came out
of the closet in 1962.
742
00:50:20.311 --> 00:50:23.314
She moved from Philadelphia
to California
743
00:50:23.314 --> 00:50:26.151
with two boys,
5 and 6 months old.
744
00:50:26.151 --> 00:50:29.154
She did it all on her own,
and the reason she survived
745
00:50:29.154 --> 00:50:31.614
and the reason she thrived
is because she advocated
746
00:50:31.614 --> 00:50:33.783
for herself
every step of the way.
747
00:50:33.783 --> 00:50:36.995
Her blood runs through my veins.
748
00:50:36.995 --> 00:50:39.372
So I'm actually not gonna let
749
00:50:39.372 --> 00:50:43.168
some Sweeney Todd cosplayer...
750
00:50:46.629 --> 00:50:50.342
...tell me that
I'm not strong enough.
751
00:50:50.342 --> 00:50:51.843
I go back to the guy, I said,
"Hey,
752
00:50:51.843 --> 00:50:54.679
"it won't be a problem.
We're perfectly capable.
753
00:50:54.679 --> 00:50:57.349
We can handle it,
we can handle the weight.
754
00:50:57.349 --> 00:51:00.727
No issue here."
And he did that thing men do
755
00:51:00.727 --> 00:51:03.229
when they want you to know
they don't respect you.
756
00:51:03.229 --> 00:51:06.858
He avoided eye contact
and spoke to the nearest man.
757
00:51:07.609 --> 00:51:09.152
He said to my dad,
758
00:51:09.903 --> 00:51:12.072
"It's a job traditionally
done by men,
759
00:51:12.072 --> 00:51:13.531
and they won't be
strong enough."
760
00:51:13.531 --> 00:51:15.867
Hey, it was an early morning.
I'm not proud of this,
761
00:51:15.867 --> 00:51:18.703
but I said,
"Hey, Ghost of Christmas Past!"
762
00:51:20.872 --> 00:51:22.540
"I was captain
of the cheerleading team
763
00:51:22.540 --> 00:51:24.584
"in high school.
This is hardly the first time
764
00:51:24.584 --> 00:51:27.087
I've carried a lesbian
who's gone limp."
765
00:51:39.224 --> 00:51:41.726
Finally, he allowed it.
766
00:51:44.396 --> 00:51:45.897
And we walked,
767
00:51:47.107 --> 00:51:50.110
carrying my grandmother
to her final resting place.
768
00:51:52.153 --> 00:51:55.448
And as we did, I thought
about the legacy of her life,
769
00:51:56.991 --> 00:51:58.368
and I wondered
770
00:51:59.411 --> 00:52:01.413
if she would have been proud.
771
00:52:04.624 --> 00:52:07.335
I prayed for a sign.
772
00:52:09.087 --> 00:52:12.132
And we walked to her graveside,
773
00:52:12.132 --> 00:52:14.175
following the hearse driver.
774
00:52:15.510 --> 00:52:18.013
And as we approached
her grave...
775
00:52:22.267 --> 00:52:24.060
he fell in.
776
00:53:07.604 --> 00:53:10.190
Thank you, Los Angeles.
My name is Hannah Einbinder.
777
00:53:10.190 --> 00:53:11.649
- Goodnight.
