"Now what I read was because there's no new information under here. This is all explaining regulation and encrypted banking. You know who blew the whistle on this, I think. Who's that? Brooks? No. Catherine Coley. Yeah. Not surprised. Where she had no. I know where she is. I do know where she is. But she is alive and well. But she's disappeared ever since. That happened. I think if you look, let's see, binance, Catherine Cohen, news. Okay, let's see. Catherine Coley, the then CEO, this would have been, oh, here we go. Here we go. This reportedly began in late 2020 and continued for the first three months of 2021. Now, if we were to go here and we were to look, Catherine Coley resign resignation, finance, dot U.S., I believe this was in March or April of 2021. Let's see. It was may. Okay, so May of 2021, where she left. May of 2021, so this is saying all these occurred by March of 2021 and she left two months later. So very interesting, but it says she didn't understand the transfers and reached out to Susan Lee, a binance finance executive for help. Lee didn't explain the transfers to Coley, except to say merit peak, which is another subsidiary or a company involved with silvergate, provided trading services, capital injections, and loans to binance U.S.. Some portion of the funds transferred to mayor Pete were apparently transferred again to key vision development, limited, which also has a CZ as a director. Wow. Okay, well, here we go. Put a $1 million in a binance U.S.. Whoo. Man, this is going to be an interesting story to see how all this develops. I mean, I think it's just going to be the same thing I've been telling you guys forever. None of these exchanges are without blame,

"Television and comedy. As such, she is tasked with making our annual best specials of the year list. So, as we do every year, we're going to walk through her list. If you enjoyed this conversation and I hope you do, Katherine and I co host a Patreon podcast called the specials. Each month we take a very deep dive into one stand up special, included where multiple specials from comedians on this list, like rod Carmichael, Catherine Cohen, and Taylor thomasin. We also talk about specials from legendary comedians like Richard Pryor and Robin Williams. So here is Catherine and Aaron dong and the best specials of the year. I am here with Katherine Ben Aaron dunk. Thank you for joining us. It's always always a pleasure, Jesse. So we're talking about the best specials of the year 2022. The first question I want to ask is I always want to have a sense of how you feel when you're making this list. But I think this is one of the first years at least I can remember that he did it where a lot of people a lot of good comedians put out specials. That are not on this list, but usually it's like, well, the good community puts out the good specials and then that's sort of shakes it up. But now there's a lot of good people that put out specials. That are not going to be on this list. So how did that feel? What did you think about it? How did your approach evolve when you're doing this list? Yeah. I think that's, I think that's right. I think it is probably two different things happening at the same time here. I think one of them is just naturally as I have now been doing this list more. Experience of seeing multiple specials from the same person makes it easier to then say, well, this special was great, and this special was not as good as the last one. And I think there is also some. I don't want to say bias, but there is always novelty is a powerful experience. And so the excitement of seeing a thing that you haven't seen before lifts up some things that if I had just started this year, I can't promise that the list would be exactly the same, but so there's that. I think. It is also something that I have been trying to make sure that the list is moving in the direction of something that I have felt more confident about doing with the TV list, which is something I've been doing for many more years. Which is that I think lists do multiple things. One of them is to reward the things you think are best and the other one is to celebrate work of titles and people that are maybe not the most immediately well known famous names. When it is possible to do that, I'm always happy to. That's a sub point, though. I don't think that really had as much of an impact of what the list was actually more of an impact is this thing that I write about in the introduction to the list this year. Which was my sense that there were a number of specials that came out this year that I completely understand why they exist. I am perfectly happy that they do exist. I was very happy to watch them, and also as I was watching them in several instances, there was this sense of like, I think probably if this special had been given another year before somebody filmed it, it might be in a different and stronger place. Yeah. It just feels in a lot of cases like it was kind of a recovery year for people who are trying to figure out not just what comedy feels like in the world right now, but did they change dramatically as people in the last couple of years and if so, who are those people now and what kind of comedy do they do? And in several instances, it felt like watching specials that were in the process of becoming that, but maybe weren't there all the way yet. Yeah. And I think that's fair. I think it's fair, a lot of comedians, the first time you see it, what is special about the special is that it's that comedian. But once you've done that once, then that is not what special about the special, but ultimately that's kind of what a lot of the fans are coming for, which is just like an update on their lives. And I think I imagine a lot of bigger comedians. They really needed to do that. They really needed you. Update, I can't wait another two years because you won't know all these things I've done over the last 5 years. And I do think it's reflected in the list. I think there's a few people that this is not their first special, but like, I mean, a lot of people, it's another special. But there's another art. I don't know what point of making. So both it does does this and it doesn't do it. But now I think it's I think as there's more, it's a easier to sort of do the thing of like, this is quality, like idea of what is best is sort of arbitrary. It's not entirely and I do think, especially towards the top, it becomes clear to be able to refine what a value system is. Because the top are such huge swings that are saying things about what specials are in art. But right. Ultimately, you're just sort of like, what is the story we're telling with this year? And I think that is what you try to capture. And I think that. Yeah. I mean, again, I should repeat this a million times, so people don't get mad at me. This is Catherine's list. I don't make a list so you can't be like, well, what's yours? I don't have one. Because that's the coward's way out. And you embraced it. I took a coward's way out. I'll say what my top one two and three are when we get there. Because they're radically different than yours. But let's get into it. We'll start with what did you call them honorable mentions? I did call them honorable men. So who did you mention honorably? So I was really, it is a year where honorable mentions. Or is it like a category that feels different to me now than it did a couple years ago and it was the kind of honorable mention where I was more of the like these are the people who I really enjoyed seeing so one of them was a fortune feimster is good fortune. That is very much in that mode of like here is an update on my life kind of a special and I think that she's just remarkably good at doing that kind of a thing. It is a very nice fit for the kind of comedy that she was doing before. It was already extremely anecdotal. It was already really pumping on charisma into these little moments. So an update, particularly one where I think she had managed to figure out how to really develop those anecdotes rather than just kind of a very simple timeline of what's been going on was very welcome.

"When we think of Christmas and money, where are we headed? What's our North Pole? North star. I think you mean actually. Mariah. She is Christmas. She is the authority on this holiday. So we need her to come out, crown me the prince of Christmas, easy, done the whole special makes sense. But like I said, the justification helped it. Yeah. And I now look back and I clearly see that with the stage show does not need. The special needed. And you know, when I first met with Jerome, he said to me, and this got him the job right on the spot. He said, have you ever seen Sandra Bernhard's album? I'm still here damn it. And I literally almost fell out of my chair. I was like, oh my God. I'm still here damn, it was a formative. Album for me. Like, if I had to say, it's like Margaret Cho, I'm the one that I want notorious revolution. Where did you find it? Rhapsody. 'cause it's not like Sandra bernhardt was a big deal, but no, there's no way that me a little faggot Long Island was ever gonna find it. But I had rhapsody, which was like the Spotify of China. It was like a you could stream music on it. And they had live comedy albums and I would shut the door, plug in my earphones. And I would seep myself in these women's comedy and I didn't even get everything. But I was dying. I mean, when I worked with Margaret on fire island, which is something that I have to really zoom out sometimes and think about. Because I could get emotional. Like it was so surreal to be able to do that with her, and she's just the best. And we just had such a moment at the end of the shoot. And I just, she said something kind to me about my performance, and I literally almost broke down on a bench in the pines. I was like, you mean so much to me. It'll be so lame for me to get into it right now, and I've already embarrassed myself in front of her many times 'cause she was on the podcast like years prior before bone and I wear anybody and we were such nerds. Anyway, I found her album and also this album, I'm still here damn it by Sandra bernhardt on this streaming thing. Rhapsody. And I always kept that. And it's just so funny that what ended up happening with me comedically and performance wise was like pretty much exactly what she was doing. And so when he said, I really think this is an inspiration for your special. I was like, yes, now I'm really excited. Like, I want to do that. I want me coming in from the back of the theater, that whisky soaked lighting, Joe's pub. It's a New York crowd. It's New York cabaret. It feels like a throwback, but the comedy is very modern. I was like, that's what I want. And so that made me even more hesitant to write the sketches. 'cause I had it in my head this idea that I was gonna do this like, you know, cabaret piece like Sandra Bernhard. And she didn't rely on sketch just so why the fuck should I? Like, and I thought it might be not good. And now that I've seen the sketches in the show, I love them. Yeah, I mean, the thing that you're describing, I can exactly imagine what you thought you were hoping to achieve without them. And it might have worked. It's just really important. It's really hard to nail like a classic that this feels old, but now that visual old. Nonetheless, what you're describing. Lots of people periodically, it's like, oh, we could do like nightclub style shooting, but just never really, it doesn't envelop you. It's really hard to do. I think the closest is we're Daniel because they had 9 shot a zillion shows. They had a million cameras, like a lot of things were done to get an energy, but it's so hard. And then I think what the sketch is really do is have it be a piece. It's not just like my show has a premise. Rosanna Gerard is essentially telling a story about himself on stage. And so it can be that. You know, Hannah gadsby in the net. She's telling her story on stage. And so, mine is not that. You know, like Catherine Cohen, that has turned my club back. Joe Kim booster, that's his stand up. My show has a premise and a concept that requires something. Yes. And so yeah, it made it more substantial, right? I think like Catherine Cohen was doing this show is about doing a cabaret act of like she did that and then she did interact. And they shot it beautifully and made sense, but and we shot it in the same space too. Yeah. But yours needed half to the premise, right? Right. She wasn't being like, what if I did a cabaret act? Oh, oops. You were doing Catherine. And it's partly because even as you're describing the show, you're like, he, you're describing he, this person. It isn't me, yeah. Yeah, so I want to talk about who is this person? Because watching it, it's so interesting to see how the persona modulates, right? Because I think especially at the beginning, you come out, your fears, you wink at people, and then by the time you leave your smiling at people, you like the person. So how do you think about that? How did you modulate? Well, I think that I honestly think that my stage persona is a lot stronger and more sexually confident and more. Bold than I am in my real life. I'm a goofier. I think that I'm sillier, but on stage for some reason, especially in this show, like I really have the instinct to dominate. Yeah. And I think that might come from the music and the musical element of it, but there is this weird alter ego that comes out when I'm performing, that feels like impenetrable, that's not who I really am. And so I followed that idea of the character in the show because I also think that is a funny character that takes himself that seriously. That thinks, of course, I'm going to be a recording artist. You know what I mean? Like, probably the hardest thing to do in this world to be a commercially successful pop star and assume that people are going to want to buy your Christmas album and hear your take on all these

Inflation weighs on shoppers despite Black Friday deals
"Shoppers have been weighed down by inflation lately, but that doesn't mean they didn't turn out for Black Friday. I'm Ben Thomas. Let's go to the mall.

"We got a lot of great people in the house. We got the hood, mama, miss Beverly and the house. She didn't help all kind of niggas get out of jail around the neighborhood. She won them black women, if the police got you on the car, she had come down there with the fuck did he do? Get the fuck out of his face. You better not hurt him, motherfucker. Whipping down there to get you, baby. Nigga in the backseat. Go tell my mom I love him, miss Beverly. We talk a lot about what makes a special special. And we as we have already in this episode and in any other number of times that we talk about this, it tends to be stuff about form about the way that a show is conceived as a whole piece about the way something like visuals, camera work and sets and performance can all add to that sense that it's not just a show that you went to. This is a show that you went to. Like this is, you went to a show, but the production of this particular special and the way that he interacts with the audience and the sort of idea that he is perpetually pinging against over and over again in the title, obviously, but just sort of throughout the hour. He's like, hey, I'm here, we're home. And the audience, I do not like audience reaction shots almost always. And I wanted more of them here, right? Like he just is this absolute party happening in this theater and the audience is a willing participant in it. that an audience is being manipulated to be in rough Daniel somehow like they are just all there to put on this show together and he is thrilled and is sort of embraces that. Like that is the idea of what this hour is meant to be. And it's not like Catherine Cohen is standing there and saying like we're in Brooklyn right now. But you can kind of feel it and that's kind of the, this is where we are. And I am such a huge sucker for suddenly having this sense of place and being transported to a place that is not mine and I get to feel like I was there and I don't get some of the inside jokes and yet I can see that they work and they play and they're fun and I just wish I wish there was like, I wish hyper locality even because I think there's this idea that it's alienating, right? I don't know where this place is. These jokes don't and it's absolutely the opposite for me in almost every instance where that hyper locality is instead a form of like I feel the way people respond to it and it works on me. Yeah, I think that's a great point. I think it's a great title for the special because truly like more than I expected he would be like, one more thing about Indiana, one more thing about Indianapolis. This is the thing about, oh, the mayor's here. The pacing of the special is bizarre to me. It's very bizarre. It starts a new thing, but that's how people talk. There is a way of it. Though his stuff is fairly rehearsed clearly and he's doing specific act out because he just sort of like talking and then he keeps on bringing it back. It shows a thing that I think so many more special should do and they don't for a variety of reasons, especially in the age of the Internet. I think physical spaces were so dislocated from physical spaces and especially if you're streaming their show, there's a weightlessness to content. And so like being in a place gives you that, the problem is there's been such a history of people opening their specials like you open a set, which is like one joke about where you are. We're in Denver. Yeah, and then you're like, you guys are high here, and then you just sort of move on or whatever. And that's good for a set and those jokes can be funny, but the problem, and so that's nothing against doing that. And I understand doing that, but it's more a matter of, I understand why comedians are like, well, that's not that we don't need to do more than that, because even that's maybe more than we need to do. It's like, actually, if you do do more of that, and if the place matters to you, or if you work really hard, the Jacksonville and cat Williams is the sort of most extreme example. But especially when the place matters to you, you're shooting in Chicago, you're from Chicago. That matters to you. That's actually kind of what the show's about because if your show's gonna be not by anything else, that's what it could be about. Same thing like, if we're doing a special management Square Garden, kind of the special to be about, I'm doing a show in Madison Square Garden. It shouldn't be like, here's the show I'm doing. It's a Manson Square Garden coincidentally. That's why I like when sets are like live from blah blah blah. Like if that makes sense. So you should lean into it and I do think it does the thing of because the hard part about specials is

"Less funny or trying to make it less. Like just the idea is exciting. And I think if she did just the idea and did songs and the songs had a funny premise, but they mostly were songs. It would work and be compelling and we'd get the idea, but also there's like 9 million jokes in every song and they all are every song is a funny song. That's not easy. Songs like full funny songs. Like, what I am saying to realize this was last special was like, oh, if you just sort of just do the funny part of the song, the song we need to be like 90 seconds. 90 seconds. Sometimes not even that, yeah. Yeah. Full songs, bridges, and the bridges are funny and do a different think comedically. This is like, and so it's like, oh yeah, this is exciting. This is so exciting that this exists. And it's hard to know how big of a deal these things are, like Netflix is this thing, if it's like this giant platform, but also it hardens bubbles, so you're like, this is the biggest special ever. It's like, oh no, it just sort of all your friends are exactly the same, but it's that same thing of just sort of like, she did it. She had a concept and I think they're able to translate a concept that is so specific to New York City over the last 5, 6 years. And be one of the examples of like, this is what the comedy of this time looks like, right? That's the thing of like yeah. This is what the comedy of the time looks like. This will be the example, people, us, I mean like these fictional historians like literally us in this moment right now. We'll point to because it's like this is the rare specials that have gone out and the last thing I'll say is that she built this as a show. She's always been doing this as a show. She did Edinburgh. It's as the show. This is her thing. She did set, but this was the show. And that also helped of like, oh, there's a sort of vision to it. And sure. It's not her fault that people are like, oh, I should also do this sort of like ironic. Feminism also being feminist thing. Yeah, that's a credit to her. That tier, I mean, it is just, it's so great. And. It's hard to imagine somebody doing miss piggy better than miss piggy. But if anyone could do it, it's Catherine Cohen. It's so funny. It's like, yeah, that's exactly it. We're right back more Catherine Van Aert, and the best specials of the year so far. This is the advertiser from knob creek. My name is Fred no. My family's been making whisky since 1795. Well, when I enjoy a glass of knob creek, the first thing I do, you know, I put my nose into it and look at it. And to me, the vanilla notes kind of jump out of the glass. And why don't barrels were used to aids whisking? You're gonna get vanillin, which is in wide out and that makes the vanilla flavor and smell that you pick up, come out of the wood. It's in the wood. Very distinctive and upgrade. I think it's the marrying of all of these flavors, the sweetness, and the oak Ness, that makes knob creek one of my favorites to sip and savor.

"This is one that I watched thought like and then as I thought about it longer it just became a pretty undeniable. Piece of this is a comedy special that feels to me like I know what this act looks like and yet it's existence as a Netflix comedy special now for an entire country to watch is it is like watching something that has sort of bumped along in particular circles suddenly become a mainstream part of like comedy language and that feels like an absolutely like you have to point out when that just it is there now. It exists, right? And it also feels like. It's odd because it's not like there's a bazillion Catherine Cohen specials out there in the world and yet because the act is so well rehearsed because this is something that she has been working on for so long because it is sort of not just her, but coming out of this kind of comedy that has been building for a long time. It still feels like some kind of cumulative Pinnacle special, right? And so I think that's really hard not to say like, yeah, it is incredibly notable and important that this exists now. That it's a Netflix special in my head because of also a lot of TV baggage that I have. Like a Netflix special is like the broadest audience that there is, right? It is like showing up on CBS in 1983. And so that is his own kind of fascinating accomplishment. And I think the direction of it is also just incredibly effective in helping create the vibe Cohen is going for the mood, the sort of cabaret but twisted, close, intimate, too intimate, oh God, it's too intimate and then it goes out again feeling and I think it's I'm very excited to see what material she's working on now. But I'm just also so glad that this now exists so that you can say like, obviously there's this thing. It's this thing. We all have it now, you know? Yeah, I think and specifically I'll call it the director, it's deep brill, who is most famous for the Adam Sandler universe, but he also directed on Sandler's last special and he's been working with Katherine on it for a while. So some of you get very rarely, which is like a special that the director was part of the film language was part of developing the show. I think the thing that even maybe even more so like I heard of every single almost every single joke in this special I've heard before because I've been familiar with Katherine for 6, 7 years now or whatever it is. But then time goes by and we're not and you just think about it. And you're like, you kind of get the ability to try to imagine what it's like to not see any of this, to live, not in New York City, in the last 5 years. To be like a 17 year old or whatever who lives still in suburban wherever. And you can see this. And it's truly like, I assume it's like being teleported. This sort of style of cabaret is existed for a long time, and then there's sort of been these comedians who sort of exist in cabaret spaces, but did not really also exist in comedy spaces for increasingly like this sort of only previous overlap in mainstream circles was like Sandra bernhardt. And so the cabaret had developed and then comedy had developed and then over the last 7 years through a variety of deliberate attempts to sort of integrate these worlds and transformative figures and also drag, right? Like you can't yeah and drag and the popularity of drag and a lot of queer people being comedians like all these things sort of happening at once and sort of sensibility had developed 5 years at 7 years ago and many different types of sensibility. It's not like one sense of building they're all doing it. But like Catherine articulated a type of comedic persona that so many people have. So her first special is coming out and she's already influenced like two generations of people. So it's like this weird thing of usually the influence is this special but because of how quick social media works is that there's people with platforms now that are directly influenced before the person who's like more successful has their sort of big thing. But then you sort of forget all those blah blah blah and you're like this is a voice and it's a perspective and it's truly an impossible defeat and I do think they achieve this is and I have to imagine this is the goal of Steve as the director is like where you have to make you believe both. She is a star and we are making fun of the idea that stars exist. And somehow do both. Somehow give you star quality. We're going to make it she's going to glow. We're going to do certain things. There's the part that you point out in your review. She cries a little bit and it's like. A disco ball like that type of lighting. It's all miraculous. And also allows her to undercut it, but not fully undercut it and she's also going to be like the parts where she's not saying they're so honest. And it all works. And it's so many funny things happen in it. Like, you can

"I am a 30 something white woman. I have heard countless Mario jokes in my life. And yet, the way that she is able to tell that joke to perform the song to position herself sort of to position it as a memory, to explain, to do just enough of the mom character, but not a ton, the way that she does jokes where she switches between white voices and her voice, all of it is comforting in a way that I think it is difficult to make jokes about poverty and cultural alienation comforting. And I think that is also a really impressive feat. Yeah. I mean, she has a vision of what she wants her comedy to do and what, and this is also post show, like what she wants, her position as a person who is expected to represent turn things to do. And what her voice means, like all of that, it's all a matter of being an artist who has control over their instrument or their brush or their whatever. And that's the feeling you get of like, this is on purpose. This is exactly what she wants to articulate. And that's a thing that is easier said than done. It really is the when you talk about things with flaws.

I just, I know, working out is good for mental health. I do suffer from depression or as I like to call it crying because outside smells like a pass. I love nostalgia. It hurts and feels bad.

"Whenever I tell people I want to lose weight, they're like, you should go to the gym. I'm like, I know. For sure. But whenever I go to the gym and I see people with abs, it's like, why are you still here? You did it. Like, get a hobby. For once. I don't know. I just, I know, working out is good for mental health. I do suffer from depression or as I like to call it crying because outside smells like the past. I love nostalgia. It hurts and feels bad. But when I go to the gym, I just can not connect with those people. If you're someone who uses and cleans a blender every day, it's like, what's really going on? What's going on? If you're someone who signs up for like mud fuck, run, or it's like, we run for a month. And you never come home. It's like, what is that? I just worry about you. And so I'm going to sing this song for you. I see you on the west side highway in your lululemons. It's harrowing that you were born in 1997. It seems to me like you really have it all going on so why'd you post on Facebook that you're running a marathon? Why do you think we all are now. What are you running from? What are you running from? What are you running from? Running a marathon is clinically insane. What are you running from? What are you running from? Have you tried just telling your friend that you're sad instead? I like a gentle dog too yet up to shake things loose. When I jog I feel like I could almost shit like I'm a normal girl but when you tell me that you're running 26.2 it makes me think that you're very in years of inherited trauma. Why do you think I. What are you running from? What are you running from? What are you running from? Running a marathon is clinically insane what are you running from seriously? What are you running from? Have you tried just breaking up with that finance guy instead? I like a finance dude too, yeah, I slept with one or two two one time my fucked one you had a Jersey with his own name on it on his wall. And when I turned around, he took the condom off and when I turned back around, I was like, wait, what? And he was like, what? And I was like, I saw what you did, and then he called me a bitch, and I was like, I'm gonna need money for the morning after pill. And he threw $40 cash at me, and that was actually the first weekend I ever lived in New York City. Putting America on his head, what could you be running from? What could you possibly be running from? Have you tried, just gone for a little walk? He didn't want a little boozy milkshakes? Double the fun. Why don't you go to one of those places where they scrape the Parmesan cheese out of the big wheel? Put that online, baby. Oh yeah, fill the boy..

"If you're thin, this is my ideal body type. If you're thin, you can be famous for smoking a cigarette and looking sad. If you're a fat and there's a photo of you smoking a cigarette and looking sad like it's a campaign for something. It's like some dare shit, you know what I mean? But mostly I want to be thin so I can wear whatever clothes I want to wear whenever I want to wear them because as we all know women's clothing sizes are totally fucked. And that's the song's about. Don't understand why you won't make bigger clothes I want the styles that you make and a size zero don't understand why you won't just listen to me. You dumb ass bitch I am just trying to give you my money take my money take take my money to get easy on me take my money take take my money just make a fast 14 okay take my money take my money a lot of that people have money so take my money please can't figure out how many hours I have logged sobbing and dressing rooms and fighting with my mom. I don't have time to grab 13 pairs of jeans, jeans are a myth. They are a fraud. They are not relaxing. Tell me have you ever felt that even a pair of jeans they are so stiff they're in and bench and all the patriarchy. I know in the 50s it was empowering to be like we're wearing men's pants, but now they make women's jeans so tie dye can sit off right. Don't get me started on boy friend jeans I've never been thinner than any man that I have dated. I like a skeleton man. It must be a subconscious thing like it's my fuck this skinny guy I won't have a chubby daughter that I'll have to fight with in the dressing room now after I've been out bitter some of the kind Urban Outfitters the way I make a close so tiny. I love their stuff. I love their stuff. I remember when they loved it. And I would say we'll make it and make it seem so I could burn things and take my money my money to get in the on me take my money take my money just make a tattoo game take my money saving my money good money rich tell me how have you ever seen an old painting? The silly girls milking a cow with that girl is just laying. Because before they're richer the person, the bigger they are, but even today don't you know that people still have gratitude and the only take my money my money to make a size for team mosh pit me. Take my money. Last week. Take my money, please my pet me because when I was younger, I was traumatized. Trying to find jeans that were the right size. If they fit around my waist, they were way too long. I'd have to call my mom have her bring me along to the tailor, I'd say cut them off, make them short enough for me. She'd go, no, no, no, just roll them up. What if you grow I'd say I don't want to know what happens if I froze if I wear my jeans like that, all the girls at school will go, why are your jeans rolled up like that? You fat fucking stupid bitch? They won't say that, but they're like no mean. You know what I mean? And now whenever I see a little girl on the street, I wanna cry, I'm like, oh my God, you have no idea how bad it gets. So I put that shit out of my head, but sometimes I'll be walking on the street in New York City. I'll see a personal say, oh my God. Is that person okay? Is that person okay? That person's so small, that person's so small, my friend will turn to me and say, that's a kid that's all. That's a kid. A lot of people have them. And I thought about something other than yourself for 5 fucking seconds, maybe. You know that you could have and hold entire life if you just stopped constantly thinking about your size, but I said society maybe this way and I'll never change because I'm tired. Society made me this way and I don't want to change because it's hard to change. That's what I learned. So I'll blame my problems on someone else which.

"Not to be this bitch, but a pandemic, not what I had in mind. So ran, literally so random. I was like, I did not know this was an option. I was way more concerned with things just like falling on my head. There's a lot of stuff that's up. I'm here I am. Beneath. But a pandemic is what we ultimately got, which was rock and roll normal and cool the last year was absolutely exquisite. I gained a lot of weight over the last year, which isn't good or bad. It isn't good or bad. It isn't good or bad. So it isn't good or bad to gain weight because it isn't good or bad and can you tell I have therapy two times this week, yes. Oh my God, it's standing ovation so early in the show. I did not see that coming. But it's cool. One perk of gaining weight is that obviously my tits got huge. If you didn't notice, it's because you hate women. My tits got big enough that I can now, like all the great poets who came before me, city, fuck my boyfriend. Thank you. Thank you. And I know, and that's not why I do it. I don't like being the girl who's like, my boyfriend my boyfriend, my boyfriend. I feel like girls who are like, my point friendly boyfriend, my boyfriend or the same kind of girls who are like, there's actually too much sugar and fruit. So for me, it's a dessert. And then their mouth goes all the way around their face. But I can officially titty fuck. Don't you sometimes wish there were different words for things. But now my tits are big enough that I can wrap them around my boyfriend's cock. Did you think, be honest? Did you think you'd hear cock this early in the show? Talk is such a corny word. I famously love porn if my boyfriend tells me the girl looks like me. Otherwise it is bad for women. And that's just where I stand on that issue. So I was, for the last time, it's titty bugging my boyfriend. Humble brag, and when he came, yeah. Could hear a freaking pin drop. When he came. He made a sound I've never heard before. And I was like, okay, I'm a sex goddess. I turned to him, I say. How was that for you? And he goes, it was actually almost painful. Feminist win much? Yes, I'm doing the work.

"He's a theater person and he also had a small recurring role on 30 rock like he's done a ton of stuff because a guy I've known doing UCB comedy since like 2002 and he's the nicest person in the world and the so freaking funny and it makes me so happy that he's finally kind of getting this bigger moment because he's so good. I mean the whole show is so good, but he's really good. I know, I know, he's wonderful. He was a genuinely nice person. Oh, that's so oh, I'm so happy to hear that. Can I throw in another thing that I just watched in really enjoyed in case people are looking for something? So last night, I had really bad heartburn at 1230 at night. I woke up and I had to Instacart myself some medication. So while I was up waiting for my Instacart, I decided to turn on comedian Catherine Cohen's stand up special on Netflix at just came out. And it's so good. Talk about something that you could watch right now. It's so funny. I was dying. It's so great. She comes from a cabaret background, so there's like singing and she's incredibly performative and so smart and I just want to recommend it. Plus, I interviewed her for a piece I wrote for InStyle about how to do a cat eye because she's like a loyal cat eye wearer and her eyeliner. Her name is Kat. And her name is Kat. And her eyeliner in the special. Like her sharp, very kind of like thick, extreme cat eye is so good. I watched it through the whole thing. It's so her makeup is so good that you could even just watch it to admire that. But truly, it's really excellent. You know, it's funny that you mentioned that she has a Cadbury background because so does Bridget Everett. We start with somebody somewhere. I feel like right. Cabaret people are like having a moment. You know what? I welcome it. It's an art that is really, I think, underappreciated. Yes. Yes. Not like I've ever done it. Can you imagine? Oh my God. Your cabaret show would be so good. Have you ever done stand up? Was that ever a thing that you were interested in? No, it gives me, it gives me such aja. Nothing about it is appealing. I can't think of anything I want to say, no. It's my brain never. I have a lot of friends who do do it. And my brain just never got there. I don't know. It didn't work for me. But cabaret, cabaret could be interesting. I'm also like this for you. Well, I also do feel like I am really embracing this idea of like, I should try whatever I want to try. Yes. You know? Yes. I'm 42. I have run out of fucks to give and normally I say that, but I don't mean it, but I will say having my book come out and having some people hate it and most people have been incredibly generous with their kindness toward it, but everybody's going to have an opinion that's their right and nobody's going to love everything. And it's just kind of I kind of feel almost at peace with the fact that like, well, I'm not, I can't please everyone, but I'm going to do the same. It's so funny you say that because Matt and I just had a very similar conversation on excellent adventure..

leasing to better account for climate change and to ensure a higher return to taxpayers Global news 24 hours a day on air and on Bloomberg quicktake powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries I'm Nancy lions This is Bloomberg You're listening to Bloomberg markets with Paul Sweeney and Matt Miller On Bloomberg radio All right let's go back to cam Harvey Camera's Professor of finance at duke university's fico school of business Can when you see a market like this you know I'm just going to talk since the pandemic where we had that dramatic sell off at the beginning of the pandemic then an extraordinary rally And then you get days like today is today an efficient market from your perspective or how do you think about it So no market is perfectly efficient So there's information that came to the market today And it's negative information and we go into risk off So it reminds me somewhat of March 2020 If you're recollect that that was the month where we realized how serious the COVID-19 actually was equity markets plunged 35% And other kind of risk on assets The same thing So gold dropped 15% Bitcoin dropped 55% And people piled into safe haven which is US Treasury bonds and cash And it's very similar in terms of what is happening today We're scared that we're going to replicate or could be even worse in terms of COVID 19 and it's a risk off day And again do you see that in the market It's interesting to me that the so called safe haven asset gold is essentially unchanged today Whereas stocks are substantially down and as you mentioned Bitcoin is down nearly 8% And the other speculative cryptos like Dogecoin down even more like 13% In your mind draw a line between growth stocks the meme stocks the retail stocks and crypto Has crypto become very correlated with equity markets Yes So and I mentioned this for a very long time So given the speculative interest in cryptocurrencies they actually have data So that means that when the market the equity market plunges they tend to do the same thing And again march of 2020 is a good example of that And then what happened afterwards the stock market realized that we're going to have a vaccine eventually it turned to a risk on situation People piled into equity markets drove them to all time highs gold went to its third highest level ever and Bitcoin went through the roof So this is very consistent with the narrative that the crypto complex is very influenced by speculative investors Theoretically So theoretically the corporate currencies are decoupled from the economy in general So Bitcoin has got an algorithmic money supply that caps out at 21 million It has nothing to do with fed policy or fed money supply or any other Central Bank Yet given the speculative interest in the cryptos they tend to move with the other risk assets And they tend to move more than the other risk assets especially in a period of drawdown like today All right Kim thank you so much We really appreciate your time here Kim Harvey Professor of finance at duke university a few school of business He has a new book out defy and the future of finance So as we all try to get a little bit smarter about decentralized finance I read that book It's a quick way to kind of get up to speed So I recommend that and we appreciate some moments we became Harvey Were you a good student I was a good student It was a very high bar to cover because there were some smart kids down there at duke Excellence I'm sure I didn't really know why I needed to answer the question Ask the question Yeah precisely completely self evident Let's carry on the conversation to figure out what is happening here One of the stories that we were very focused on coming into today was what was happening with inflation We've seen obviously the supply chain crunches We've seen the impact that they've been happening having there's been labor shortages we've been watching that carefully We've also seen a high price of fuel as well That started certainly a day today with a massive move down in the price of fuel The question is is this just a brief blip and we bounce back or are we gonna start to see actually a new normal sorry to assert itself as we realize that maybe actually we're going to be dealing with this with this COVID crisis for a lot longer Supply chains absolutely front and center particularly on a day like today Black Friday So let's get some insight into what is happening Paige van fossen joins us now vice president of ecommerce operations for DHL working on the supply chain side of the business page Welcome to the program Thank you very much indeed for your time We've been talking to a number of people already about how the shopping season is going today There does seem to be a sense that we have fully stacked shells that actually not only in bricks and mortar but also any commerce that actually inventories are reasonably good and as a result of which consumers are going to get what they want You've also been working very hard Just give us your sense a kind of where we are How well stacked are we with inventories Do you expect the consumers are going to see any shortages I would say right now our facilities are looking early stacked with inventory as you say I think it was a little bit later coming than we would usually have experienced in previous years So we have been kind of labor needs as we're both bringing in inventory that's been expedited as well as trying to get the orders out the door I was out on the floor this morning and some of our operations So it's been a good start to the Black.
