Politically Incorrect with Susie Essman

Jennifer and Pumps have had it with convertibles and are finally calling them out for being the bait-and-switch that they are. Pumps has (hypocritically) had it with inconsiderate walkers. The girls then get to meet one of their idols, Susie Essman, from the greatest show of all time, "Curb Your Enthusiasm."

I've had it with videos where people say "this is my go to meal when I dont want to cook... it only takes 30-45 minutes." Are you serious? When I dont want to cook, I take one bite from each leftover container in the fridge until I am full.

[@kentolmsted9269]

Great point, Martin.

[@pickles8551]

🤣🤣🤣Right!

[@lettucesalad3560]

The worst is stores with narrow aisles and people get shopping carts and make no effort to stay outta the way.

[@bevwest7428]

Like at Costco, some old lady stops dead in the middle of the aisle, and shouts, "Henry, come over here, they have bagel dogs!" Hate it!(btw...I'm an old lady)

[@jimijames63]

My wife does this thing I've had it with. Coming out of a store with a cart, when there is a flow of other shoppers, stops abruptly to reach in her purse to find her sunglasses. I've had it!

[@leona2222]

Right?! Pull over to the side!

[@eelnoops5200]

As my mom ages, I have found myself in the role of caretaker, and the person that runs her on her errands, and I've noticed that my mom has this irritating habit of IMMEDIATELY stopping upon walking into the grocery store, the Kohl's store, the Home Depot store, anywhere, to look for her list, put away her sunglasses, make sure that her wallet is in her purse, whatever, but it must happen during her dead stop stp exactly three feet inside the main entrance of the establishment despite the fact that there are a dozen other shoppers with their understandably 'Miss-Bossy-Shopping-Cart' outlook that are just behind her. I've HAD it.

[@jimijames63]

Thanks all, my wife tries to say I'm the one out of line for even mentioning it. I'VE HAD IT!

[@daviddye6558]

My mom on her scooter. Pulling up to talk to me, will clog whatever space, and then I am wrong for bringing it up hahaha

[@twofarfromhome]

The people who stop at the end of a full escalator to look at their device 🤬🤯...

[@JessDEdwards]

My mom is the typical religious oklahoma woman and over the years i have corrupted her to give less and less of a shit by simply not altering my language around her. Now i smile with pride when she tells me to SHUT THE FUCK UP! and i know she means it. Say it with your whole heart and chest, mama! I live!

[@dariocharris407]

One of the best interviews yet! Susie is an icon!! We will miss Curb so much.

[@KileL930]

Well behaved women rarely make history! Love the show and wish you would add Philadelphia to the tour!!!!

[@DKF_oli]

I think that Philadelphia was one of the very first cities they visited!! Sadly I missed it as well considering I wasn’t an Esteemed Listener yet.

[@tammieschaffer4818]

I’ve been fans of these two amazing, world changing women since they were TV stars. I was incredibly excited to find their podcast! I don’t care what any MAGA cult followers say, they are making great strides in political issues! You go, Girls❣️

[@michele1491]

I hear you Susie! These behaviors all come back to one thing…the breathless lack of self awareness. Read the room people 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@jordynfreeth6009]

10mins into the interview “am I on video?” LOL!! 😂😂😂

[@leona2222]

😂😂😂😂

[@kellybelk2874]

As a therapist who uses the feeling wheel, I now am inclined to add “fuck” and create a “fuck meter.” Thank you for contributing to the improvement of mental health for countless others 😂😂

[@DanetteLaMonica]

You forgot to mention the BUGS! The bugs would be disgusting. Convertibles are definitely overrated.

[@J.M.-nb4gw]

Exactly, can't stand convertibles and would never own one, although I will admit to having a sunroof in every car I've owned since 1981 and love it! 😎

[@justz3973]

[@DoctorJoanieTool]

What an amazing guest!!!!! I am so impressed with the terrific guests you’ve already had on your show!!! Really fascinating to know they don’t table read, rehearse or even have much set dialogue. Such a talented cast. Fun to hear about Tracy U. - have been watching her for decades. The entire cast is just top notch. Tight and brilliant comedy.

[@kaceykelly7222]

Back in the 60s, when we stepped on back of shoe, we called it "giving someone a flat tire". Remember?

[@amdman4you]

No but I'm going to try to bring it back 😅😅😅

[@user-yz9gn4xo5j]

amazing as usual. PLEASE get Kathy Griffin on as a guest. She has HAD IT more than anyone in America x

[@ashlayydee04]

The debrief after the guests is my favorite

[@seanryan3020]

What I've had it with is people stopping right at the top/bottom of an escalator! It's not like we can walk around them there! BTW, your cussing is my main selling point when I plug your show to my family/friends!

[@Icebergwallst]

My ex had a GTO convertible and I had a 1980 T-bird so one weekend I was on my way to reserve training and she wanted to switch for a day, I drove over the highway with the top down, worst ride ever. 😅

[@claudiaschaeffer7767]

There are so many walking offenses that I’ve had it with. My best friend who I love and adore is the worst offender, and I tell him this all the time, with his laissez faire walking habits where he does not walk in a straight traffic pattern and drifts into my lane. Literally will bump into me. Hello! A shocking lack of self awareness if you ask me.

[@katc2040]

i mean, you guys are best friends. itd be different if he bumps into strangers.

[@katc2040]

​@butchnoneed4883 often linked to adhd too to not be able to walkstraight. this isnt something most people who do it can easily control

[@user-fu5ok8oi2k]

People on their phones in middle of grocery aisles..standing there w a stunned look on their face…like WHAT🥴

[@kentolmsted9269]

I'm with you. That's a huge annoyance to me.

[@icymeow3417]

​@@HollyLiana IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AISLE. Reading comprehension, Holly.

[@davidbauer4355]

Awesome interview, thank you! Have loved Curb since the beginning and am at the beginning of loving this show, as you are a recent find. I hope Susie puts in a good word so Larry David can find his way to your show too!

[@ArtOfPK]

Out of all the guests on the Fear& podcast these two certifiably left me wanting me wanting more. Thanks for the consistent content!

[@JenniferGrobelny]

I LOVED THIS EPISODE. One of my favs by far. Love Jen, Pumps, Susie and Cub Your Enthusiasm!

[@SIERRATREES]

Because of the discomfort of having to listen to narcissists, I now over compensate when making conversation, by being very careful to see if there is genuine interest to what I'm talking talking about.

[@nfrdz]

Susie Essman is EVERYTHING! And you two ladies are also ❤❤❤

[@taaaylllorrr]

I need to top off my Botox from smiling through this whole thing 😍😂 Obsessed with Susie! The fact that Curb is improved shouldn’t be surprising, but proves how brilliant they are.

[@andrewkillham3946]

I’ve had it with people exiting or entering doorway and then stopping. Like no one else might use the door after you

[@dantescave1]

Couldn’t find the podcast so I’ll post here! LOVE LIVE LOVE your political commentary! We don’t hear from all the politically astute, analytical, educated, brilliant women like you gals, who are modern & aware.

[@jaymanuel3396]

Great and hilarious episode as usual. Loved the interview with Susie, y’all all vibed very well. Not sure how this show wound up in my recommendations, but I’m very happy it did, and I subscribed. Oh, and I’m a Latino dude. Love you ladies!

[@Icebergwallst]

Worst thing is someone chews your ear off for like 15 minutes then after still not getting to the point they say to make a long story short…😢😮

[@DaveCM]

You are not body shaming men. You are shaming them for being insecure about it and attempting to compensate.

[@J.M.-nb4gw]

Exactly, I'm a 64-year-old heterosexual male (and a nurse) who has always been the shortest guy of all my friends and family as a kid and as an adult. The tallest height I ever achieved was 5'7" at the age of 21. At my last physical I was 5'5 1/2" and my weight of 165 lbs is only 3 lbs more than when I was in college 40+ years ago. Anyway it's always been challenging to be the shortest guy around especially in a society that seems to worship large men! Fortunately I have never felt insecure or inadequate or inferior to any of the large people around me despite the way society looks at short people. I work at a large urban hospital in the US Midwest and most of my coworkers are typical fat out of shape Midwesterners (except for most of the doctors.) My wife is a small person also (under 5" tall and 100 lbs) so we are a good match and she loves me just the way I am, and that's all I need! Oh and we both drive very nice but small and efficient Honda CR-Vs, never had the desire for a convertible or sports car or to drive some giant SUV or truck like a lot of the idiots around here! It's a good feeling to be comfortable with one's own body and mind! 😊

[@shaolinwarrior2012]

One of my favorite protest signs said "Racism is small dick energy"

[@sarahshaw-sehgal1146]

​@@J.M.-nb4gw we LOVE a confident short king and short queen wife 😄

[@randibgood]

I was coming to the comments to say the same exact thing! No body shaming whatsoever. It's the insecurities that are being mocked.

[@randibgood]

​@@J.M.-nb4gw It truly warms my heart to hear a not too tall adult man be secure in himself. I have dealt with so many "Napoleonic" types that have felt the need to prove themselves to... I don't know, themselves? And they are, all too often, narcissistic jerks and tend to micromanage when in a position of "authority". I'm wishing you and your lovely wife all the best and a long, happy, SATISFYING life together! 👍🏼✌🏼

[@perfumedelight66]

3:34 yeah don’t ever teach at a high school. Most of those kids are COMPLETELY unaware of their surroundings.

[@bagelbenji]

omg as a curb fan so excited!

[@treesoul00]

Same lol I love her

[@traceyingham1087]

I just heard you ladies the for the first time the other day & I can’t believe I randomly picked an episode to watch …because I’m just watching Curb Your Enthusiasm myself for the first time…love love love it love you girls already ❤

[@ghostgirl7605]

BEST EPISODE EVER. I love Susie, I love Curb and am so sad it’s ending. Thanks ladies for this one 😢

[@kimheins4399]

This is so funnny...I saw Jennifer and Pumps in NYC last fall and I thought it was strange the two of you were not walking together. Pumps was about a 1/2 a block ahead of Jennifer. 😊

[@lindakautzman7388]

Big Curb fan here..this episode is a true gift..😂😂thank you

[@psrosemary]

I’m a fan from Mexico. Every one of your shows reinforces my joy that I don’t have to live in the USA! I subscribed to Max just to watch Curb Your Enthusiasm, which I had never seen. I can’t stop thinking about that poor actress who plays Larry’s wife being married to you-know-who. Ick. Good job, ladies! Thanks for enduring OK, USA, so I don’t have to.

[@denisegilkeson695]

I don’t want Curb to be over! 😢

[@dawsonrude7054]

Hi Mothers!

[@Graymage69420]

The teeny weenie thing is more about the insecurity associated with it. If they have a small piece and accept it then things are chill, but men rarely do and compensate in the worst ways.

[@diananunez7]

Loved this interview sooooo much! All three of you just made my day!! ❤❤❤

[@notreallyacat]

So excited to watch!! Wondering why the vids premiere in the middle of the night? Well at least for me they do lol:)

[@skybaby444]

Times are changing. "Bads words" are a construct of the past. Fuck that shit. Spooky! 👻

[@norrinorri]

Of course you girls are Curb fans! Great get getting Susie on the show. Honestly, maybe the funniest character in the history of TV. Her tragic taste in everything. Her self assurance and total lack of shame and willingness to express her whole self. All the while being a total sweetheart aside. I love her. And yous.

[@jenparianos]

See, “Terms of Endearment” movie for how one actually looks after a convertible ride. lol!!

[@susansalvucci4281]

Could not agree more about disdain for convertibles. Besides wind and noise, don’t forget the diesel fumes from the surrounding trucks and traffic. Just no.

[@molly4561]

One time me and my friends took one of their convertibles to another state for spring break and we passed a farm and had to smell cow poo for about 10 minutes….since then I’ve hated convertibles lol

I am a New Yorker also (obviously). I love Susie’s accent! It soothes me somehow.

[@elishaminor2900]

This is my second time joining end hope it was as good for you ladies as it was for me a real mixture of delightful word that simulated my ears and mind

[@treesoul00]

I think the most hilarious one was when she had to quilt the klan costume lol comedy gold. The way Larry was complimenting her skills and she said oh some people need that 💀

[@rudymarquez1939]

I’ve had it with the extreme polite customer service. I don’t need to hear “thank you” before and after every sentence from the customer service rep. And I’m sure they hate saying it too.

[@C123abc]

I do hate it when actors are given credit for what the writers are producing. They're just saying the lines, folks. What they wear is curated by wardrobe. They're just wearing the clothes. How about some credit where credit is due rather than giving it to people who are just good at pretending to be someone else. That's why we're stuck with that humiliation of a man, trump.

[@deecook7437]

I have always hated convertibles. Totally agree. Plus I'm albino, so I can't be in the sun like that. ❤you ladies

He will be retiring in 2 fking weeks, witch he worked midnight, witched I loved the peace and quiet because he ate, shit, showered, worked and sleeped. I seen him awake for about 2 hours a day.

26:40 - I’m from the south, but I am not nice when it comes to someone blocking the sidewalk, airport speed walk, etc. I don’t even say “Excuse me” anymore.

[@VetsrisAuguste]

The convertible roof is a holdover from a time when the average traveling speed was that of a trotting horse. The status associated with the convertible roof is derived from a lifestyle that predates the rise of the automobile or the middle class. By time said middle class could aspire to display such symbols of status, the automobile had changed the pace of travel, rendering the convertible roof idiotic.

[@micheleemmerich680]

I have had it with when you are in line to check out line and a person pushes their cart into your Achilles tendon. I do not order new cars with a sun roof, but I have owned a few. I never opened the sun roof to get air. I would however open the shade on sunny days in the winter to warm my car. Convertibles are just a safety disaster waiting to happen.

I loved my VW Rabbit convertible! I'd leave work at the end of the day, take the top down, and it was like being on vacation, instantly. I especially loved it at night, on back roads, climbing the Berkeley hills to the top and then looking straight down at the lights below. I put a clip in my hair and then just shook it out when I got to where I was going. I was young, beautiful, and my daughter and I loved my car (she was 8-10). Then the roof started to leak a bit from all that California sun (cracks), so I traded it in but got a BMW with a sunroof. I loved that car, too. In those long ago days I loved to drive, especially at night. Now I'm old, and cars are just to get from point a to b. This is sad.
