Now, Flula, before we get into the podcast, would you mind telling us a little bit about how you got into comedy? What was your comedy birthing like?

Yeah, I still don't understand why I've been invited into those ha-ha circles.

I started as a hype man, but that was also unintentional.

I entered a hype man contest thinking I would lose immediately and this would be a fun thing to do.

And then I accidentally won the hype man contest, which was a mistake.

And then I thought I should keep making more mistakes.

And so that seems to be what's occurred.

Flo, are toilets in Germany as bad as toilets in America? In

What, what happened? What's going on?

Well, I, my, I f- I have a, I had a sitcom called Flula Makes Five, and we filmed an entire season.

And, uh, to save some dollars, I hired my cousin Heinz to be the director of the photographies.

And the-

I like, I like that because I like to be part of the crowd, you know?

Yeah, of course.

Oh, I can tell you, it's called Flula Makes Five because a family of four buys a house, does not read the fine print that there's a German techno DJ who has signed a 99-year lease to the basement.

Number four, Flula Borg.

Flula was nice, but he is dead now.

Flula was nice, but he is dead.

Flula was nice.

Hello, it's me, Flula Borg.

But he is dead now.

I recently expired.

[gentle music]

Was this your first vocation? Did you bounce from something else to this?

Yeah.

Uh, thank you for saying I fled, which is, uh, true.

I did.

I, I was, prior to this, a, a techno DJ, and so, uh, I would DJ, uh, techno.

And what occurred was I, uh, I accidentally won a hype man contest sponsored by Scion.

Uh, there's clips online that if you want to, if this is ever a video, we can show those.

And then the final question: When did you know that you made it?

See T-Mobile.com for details.

Substance use disorder and addiction is so isolating.

And so as a Black woman in recovery, hope must be loud.

It grows louder when you ask for help and you're vulnerable.

It is the thread that lets you know that no matter what happens, you will be okay.

Let's close up the old plug bag.

Close your eyes and open up that bag.

Close your eyes and open up that bag.

Simon Pegg

... vampires." Yeah, yeah.

Uh, and then also the lady who was always kind of maybe they are, uh, having a cutesy time, probably not.

Is she dead? I don't know.

Not the doctor.

Do you know? And she's, uh, uh, one time-

Because everything you want is on the other side of a bunch of failures.

Oh, yeah, I've...

What, how did you become this improbable, uh, ridiculous man? Were you, what were your interests? What did you love to do? Did you run through the fields? Did you, um, did you have friends? Uh, tell me about yourself.

Yes and no.

Uh, so I did enjoy the fields of running.

I had very little friends and very little, uh, siblings.

By that, I mean zero.

I didn't kill or eat them, they simply didn't come out of my mother's hole.

All right.

Jesus.

(upbeat music) Ah, McValue at McDonald's.

In this case, "Ah" says it all.

After all, getting great deals on your favorite drinks from McDonald's means twice the ah, because there's the ah after you take that first sip and the ah when you realize just how much you're saving.

Now that's refreshing.

Take a tally of every question asked, and I want there to be an equal number betwixt the two of us.

Is this real or are you like being a Kentucky waitress who's like, "Hey, y'all have so much sweet tea," but really you're like, "Leave me alone.

I want to stay in the back and check my Sudoku puzzles"?
