Mike really does the best interviews. The tone of his podcasts is warm and funny. We need more of this in the world
Warm and funny is such a good way to describe this pod❤
Agree!
I love Mike! Ilove Fortune! Together is a gift!!
Fortune is so LOVEABLE! Such a handsome pretty little lady. ❤😊
Fortune is so genuine! She's so funny and someone I'd love to just hang out with
“Now I’m really happy!”
Such a genuine reflection. Love watching my favorite comics talk about life and process.
Fortune's beautiful pink suit in her special matched her radiant joyfulness. It enhanced my enjoyment of the whole experience.
Big fan of Fortune and the Handsome podcast.....keep it coming!
What a great conversation!
This was great and also needs to be longer, I could've easily listened to an hour or more of this convo between you two!
Two of my favorite people! I would die to see Mike, Fortune and Tig in a show!
I loved Fortune's new special. She had me cracking up. And seeing the live clip with her Mom, during the credits, was so much fun❤
Two comedians that show you can be kind and funny.
Thanks to this podcast I learned about the Handsome podcast, and I'm so looking forward to the episode with Fortune's mum. I already like Mike's show because I get to learn about my favorite queer comedians beyond their stage persona (Hannah Gatsby, Matteo Lane, Fortune Feimster). When Fortune shared about her grandma I felt for her; because what I know about her grandma is the jokes about being in the car with Grandma and dog, and now it felt like I saw the human behind the craft. This was so cool. Also I love the Slow Down, I'm down for taking your time with the last questions.
She’s a ray of sunshine, so funny!
Two of my favorites together. I sooooo want my own ice machine. Goals.
KEEP IT HANDSOME! I clicked so dang fast 🤩
💯
Girls Inc!!! ❤
I relate to Fortune’s way of living and dealing with that really specific loss. I was the same age, they waited for me to finish college, and then the nightly committee started meeting (anxiety and insomnia). It’s been over a decade now, and I am also having a hard to time relating to that person before the death. I’m not sad, not angry, just different and trying my best. I also don’t like delving into it, but fortune, I would read that book. Hell I’d write it with you!
I’m so glad you had Fortune on! I hadn’t had the chance to see any of her shows and now that I know what a truly lovable, funny person she is I’m going to search her out right now! Thanks for yet another great show Mike!! ❤️👏🏻❤️
I really enjoyed listening to two funny intelligent people. Made me laugh and think.
This podcast should have so many more subscribers. It's so great!
Growing up in the eighties, I always thought that people with electric can openers were extravagant.
OMG, me too!😂
Love Fortune. Love that you had her on your podcast
I'd love a T-shirt that says "good fortune"
Love this :)😀
Was at those shows in Charlotte, what a delight! And yes, the Comedy Zone is a FANTASTIC club!
Love Fortune. Her new show is hilarious. I can relate to her coming out story. 🏳️🌈🌈❤️
Great podcast. Fortune is really funny
Love you guys!!
❤ Fortune!
So someone bought a ticket, showed up, sat through the show and claims it was shoved down their throat? What the actual hell is wrong with people?
My daughter recently told me she thought she was in a rich house if they had Kleenex instead of just using toilet paper to blow your nose lmao...I told her I Did buy it occasionally if On sale as it was not necessary whereas toilet paper has many uses lol
I've been a fan of Fortune for many years, and I'm just finding out on this podcast that she's gay. I AM SHOCKED😂❤❤❤
❤
💕😘🤗🤗💕
the being right thing was literally the end of my girlfriend's boyfriend!
Yeah Ghost 👻
Mike, here's a suggestion: *ask* your daughter what she thinks/believes when questions about G_d and/or the afterlife come up. None of us are blank slates when we're born (and some of us are filled up whole pages and know it), but the point is not to give answer but to encourage a dialogue that continues throughout her life. I knew a lot of facts, like that Max Planck knew what he was talking about when he said consciousness is everywhere, when I was born because I remembered being pure consciousness before then. Sp even though I have the same info this world-reknown physicist had, there was no one for me to share my spiritual journey with in this society. And it's been quite a journey. *Everyone's* is. Make a point of leaving the conversational door open, and if you find you need support, try a Unitarian-Universalist church. The quest is what matters. ❤
Why does it always have to be theists vs atheists? Both of those belief systems think they have the answers. Agnostics embrace the notion that maybe we don't know, and that's fine.
The belief in god should be based on FAITH. Not in thinking you KNOW there’s a god.
If we knew for sure, that wouldn’t be a belief.
Like I don’t BELIEVE my phone number is what it is. I know that.
I BELIEVE in god. I might be wrong, ultimately. But I believe.
@@MsNatiBug Semantics. You didn't address the question. You just affirmed your own belief, which is typically arrogant. Thank goodness you used capital letters so I'd know you were serious.
But did the car really go into the ravine outside Hardee's?? Come on now Feimster.
coming from the early episodes... why is Mike dressed up like Elon,,,?
edit: y'all are in trouble
after skipping through the episode... gob-less you one and all, but you're done
