Kyle RidleyHOST
Was it something that she invited you to join one of the lives? You messaged her and you just had a nice rapport?

Victor CarlesiGUEST
Yeah, like I mean, during that time, she was just kind of letting anyone who wanted to join the live like join.

Victor CarlesiGUEST
on a live in front of like 400 people then after that one she was like oh my god you're so funny like you definitely do comedy right and I was like no I don't like do it and then honestly like her like sort of stamp of approval I you always kind of like have a feeling that you're funny like I was always like I just there's something inside me that's telling me I'm I'm really silly but her being like you're really funny like you should do this I was like okay you're the funniest person in the world to me and then we just started talking I think we were both going through some like I know we were both going through some like crazy personal drama so it was like during the pandemic we just were like voice messaging back and forth for like weeks and weeks on end um i wanted to mention when you were saying like about 80 of the audience like wasn't getting it that's like another thing about meg that i absolutely love like that's part of the joke is like that the liminal space or like the weird moment where it's like you're laughing so hard it's like the juxtaposition of just people having no idea what's going on while you're like cackling and it's like You're laughing even harder because other people have no idea what's going on.

Victor CarlesiGUEST
You're like, this is insane to watch people like just deadpan the funniest person in the world.
