That Sarah Silverman podcast.

Congratulations.

You're the perfect person to be doing a podcast on.

I would just imagine you've got such a funny, creative quick brain.

You know, everybody, you've got a million stories.

This is the perfect thing for you to be doing right now.

Thanks.

Well, he said it all.

I want to thank Conan for being here and for promoting my podcast, the Sarah Silverman podcast.

What are you finding that?

Do you like most about doing it?

I like just I like how messy it is.

I like how loose it is.

I just gabbed and then, you know, we I illicit elicit.

Is that the voice?

You have to say the whole sentence until I can tell you if it's the right word or not.

I elicit voice mails from people Sure e would think would be Maybe solicit or I encourage people to send in their voicemails what's elicit well, elicit.

Like I elicit a response.

Uh, my, my out.

My my outrageous remarks elicited strong condom condemnation from the polit bureau.

What the hell was that?

Mansplaining.

I'm sorry.

No, I asked you.

I know I love it when a woman asked me a question.

And then I say what I think it is.

And then they say, Thanks for Mansplaining.

That's a good trap.

Yeah, I was trapping you.

Um, I solicit you.

Solicit?

I don't think that's good on its own, I solicit.

I ask for voicemails on my social media streams.

People call it and leave voicemails.

Then, um, the producer Diana listens toe all of them picks about 20 or so and then the night before we listen to it and we pick about five or six, and I don't necessarily know exactly what I'll say, but I go, Yeah, this will be good, you know?

And then, um usually I get in.

I talk about whatever little micro thing, and then we play the voicemails, and that really dictates the direction of the podcast.

And then before you know it, it's over.

It's over.

And what's nice is your free of all this strict professionalism of an interview like this.

It is funny, though.

This is so constraining.

Let me ask.

You want to see the real you?

Not this uptight.

You rehearse.

This is so rehearse when I I'm maybe you relate to this on anyway, I don't know.

When I started the podcast, I thought, You know, I've been I knew it would be a learning curve.

It's a new medium.

But also I've been a public speaker for many, you know, for decades.

You know, right, But it's it's funny to me.

I had toe learn, Ah, lot of the stuff I learned in Stand Up a long time ago, like over again, Like the first few episodes I said, The F word, every other word.

Whatever.

I'm listening back, and it's like such It's so Bush league, you know?

And I had to learn, like all right, I think I was so excited about the total freedom and, you know, it just comes off like a crunch, like you've got to make it a treat or have a purpose for it, or like, very decidedly no purpose for it.

Whatever.

But, you know, I had to learn that again.

And then also I was like, Why are people writing think pieces about this?

Not that I was saying that, but you know what I mean?

Like I wanted like and then I was in the tub and I took a puff and I thought about it.

And I go.

That's so embarrassing.

Like the one thing I tell young young comedians like Don't look for an agent to come see you right away or whatever.

Just keep your head down.

Do stand up.

And when you're good, people will be talking about you.

And I was like, it was like in a pit like this ridiculous epiphany that I know better tojust like work do this podcast and work on it and make it better each time I'm still figuring it out.

But here I am on Conan, Just get a few more subscribers.

What do you mean, a fume or you're gonna You're gonna triple your numbers being on this show a fume or this is gonna put you through the roof.

Kid Strap in.

This is a rocket to success This show.

I know.

As Teague says, I think maybe I'll get discovered.

Does she still see?

Just ignore terrace Still say that Maybe I'll get discovered because I think I get discovered tonight.

E don't think anyone said that about in show business in like 50 years.

Listen, you're the perfect person be doing a podcast.

I'm excited that you're doing this.

Do you like doing the ads?

I do like doing the I don't know why.

I don't know what it is.

And maybe it's like from listening to Howard or just listening to podcast.

Well, he does.

He's the master ball.

So he you know Howard Stern.

I've been listening to him for years, and it doesn't corrupt his comedy or his point of view at all.

He he'll talk about whatever he wants to talk about, and he'll say, Hey, and by the way, if you're looking for window shades and I'll think, Yes, I am looking for window shades, I know, but things from I got to squatty potties for my dad on Father's Day a few years ago.

He was, He was.

He was pushing squatty potties for a while.

Why, too?

I don't know.

I just thought, Does one go on top of the other?

Is that is that thing?

Does that move things along even faster?

If you, ADM or squatty part like if you had five squatty potties, would you just empty your bowels in a second?

You know what?

I think I bought him, too, because I do know that he Onley He's designated one bathroom between the two bathrooms.

They have, you know, um, for doing that, but I think it's because it was $9 and I felt cheap getting one.

But then it's just $18 right?

Well, I'm glad, you know, you just did.

Now you worked in an ad for squatty potty.

That's true.

I wish we could show the animation that explains exactly how it works.

I like coming up with theme songs I like.

You know what?

It's fun.

And also, I just think that, like when you're given limits, there is something about having no limits on your podcast.

So when you do have limits, it forces you to be creative, like like all the limits.

Look at this.

Look at your audience.

That's what happens when you have limits.

You come up with weird creative comedy, finds a way stuff exactly.

It's the limits that let us grow.

Yeah, I mean, just blue sky is like paralyzing.

Exactly.

I think we've learned a lot in this interview.

You don't have a push up contest.

I can only do one.

I think I would win.

How many can you dio a lot more than one.

Ah, lot more.

Well, I'm a man, aren't I?

I well.

And also three is 300% of one.

Yeah, so he's doing triple.

I didn't say that I would be a functioning human being after I did them.

I mean, we can't touch right, because another thing we could do is the three of us could make a pyramid.

Can't do it.

People would write in and say would get you know, Fauci writing in saying no pyramids.

I said also because scared I'm so scared of getting it.

I would I would in the pyramid thing, I would insist on being the top.

I would insist on you being the top.

I think you'd have to be the top about time I got known as a top.

Well, you know, see, this is the kind of strict professionalism you need to escape with the podcast, and he presents as a bottom, but he's a top.

Thank you.

Well, anyway, welcome to things my parents won't understand.

You can listen to the Sarah Silverman podcast on iTunes and wherever podcasts are available, and you're going to listen to it.

I'm thrilled so delighted that you came here in person that I was dancing in the parking lot before you arrived.

Here.

Thank you.

I'm so tired of Zoom and I love you.

And you being here in person is just Christmas come early.

I know that's a big holiday for you.

So, Sarah Silverman, thank you.

Very going to say merry Christmas again.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Look, I'm kicking a Mussolini's head.

I check your tears and I kick in time, Yeah.
