    Kathleen is such a pretty woman, those beautiful eyes, smarts,humor. Anybody that's a night owl, heavy tour schedule, who can still look good, makeup free, after no sleep,is fit.
    Makes sense that having to prep the same meals for eons equates to being forced to use the same material for every single show. Stifling. Most peeps would go cray, too.
    Thanks for this inside look at your lives as comics

    As someone who is Autistic (and lives in STL) I appreciate that Kathleen can joke about Autism without making fun or ridiculing it. I watched her special last night and it's great! Also if you want authentic Mexican food in STL, head down to Cherokee Street. Lots of Mexican owned businesses and restaurants with delicious food.

      @@hbeachley Kathleen has a UA-cam channel, during lock down she read books to us. She would end each night with ‘night night Termite’; it originated with her buddy comedian Ron White. So he’s papa termite, she’s mama termite, and the lock down fans are the termites. She even made a shirt with ‘night night termites’ on it, really cute.

    So glad that even when you retire your specials will always be streaming somewhere and I won’t get sick of them. Hopefully these Podcasts will stay forever on UA-cam. We are so lucky that you do this for us. We can’t all see you on the road anyway. Kathleen’s Pubcast’s have kept many of us going and she has kept up even after the pandemic. New every Wednesday and great stuff. We are spoiled, and yes, I go nuts with the comments like I am here. Just so much to respond to. If you can keep that up you don’t need the road. You’re legends forever. When people are quoting you regularly I think you’ve made it (not that you weren’t already, but think you can gain followers without touring, it just doesn’t pay well other than getting praise)

You two and Nate Bargatze are my Mount Rushmore of comedians. ❤️ I guess Gabe “Fluffy” and Gaffigan might be the other two heads…but I guess I haven’t seen everyone.

    Kathleen is right about women and credit cards. My father died at 41 in 1969. Shortly after that, Sears notifed my mom that they were revoking her credit card because there was no longer a man to sign for it.

    • @poohbeartube
      @poohbeartube Місяць тому

      She's not entirely correct. In 1974 (not 1976), women gained, for the first time, the right to apply for credit in their own name without a male co-signer. I believe you although it would have been a ridiculous practice or policy of Sears because credit had already been established and how did they discover his death? It wasn't all women. Most married women (especially with children) did not work outside of the home partly because they didn't need to. Consequently credit was extended to women on a case by case basis. My mother bought her first house in 1968 without a co-signer. She had been divorced and working for 3 years by then.

      @@rrrjjj5572 Yes that is true but I wrote about more than anecdotal experiences. I agree with what Kathleen said "There's a lot of women in the 70s that lost their minds because of the situation." The situation being the influence of the women's liberation movement (second-wave feminism) and economic conditions including the low cost of housing and education and an increased demand for clerical workers. I presume a good Catholic mother like Vicky Madigan would not have filed for divorce which in my opinion, would have been more influential to what "sent her over the edge" than having "like 10 things to pick from" to prepare for meals.
