The Bubble, Episode 2: Mansplaining

[@THE-X-Force]

WTF?! The acting is SOOOO GOOOD. So many subtle things that set it apart! The way she holds her head at 1:04, and then pauses, moves her mouth silently _first_ ( 1:06 ), as if she's actually thinking of the words to say, _then_ says them. Perfect reaction at being cut off at 1:09. And Jason is great as well, perfect timing, both of them. So many great moments and just awesome delivery. Ramped up energy really felt authentic at 2:21 (and on..) The "shut your mouth" hand gesture at 2:35. *This is genuinely good acting* . And all in one take! The fact that the material written is _also_ so brilliant .. how has this been languishing here for three f*ng years?! Exceptional, outstanding sizzle reel. I wish I were a casting director.

"Sarah, let ME explain to YOU what mansplaining is!" 😆😆😆

[@tomitstube]

getting this 3 years too late, but at least i'm getting it, very funny.

[@kontiuka]

That bit at the end looked like maam-splaining to me.

[@MrChrislatl]

"Femsplaining...It's like mansplaining, except 20% less effective". Love it!

[@mikecooper8462]

.... and that's when the fight started.

[@carmen_says_hi]

It's like he wants to die...

[@robbabcock_]

And he's never gonna get any ever again!😂

[@Gregorypeckory]

Fabulous episode; wow! Sarah, if you read these, I just discovered you, and what a breath of fresh air! This was a brutal truth bomb, hilarious!

[@Jervisdude]

These two are great together. Give them an SNL gig.

[@racerx1189]

Agreed.

[@Lydirius]

Too good for SNL.

[@hothatchpa]

Or a Netflix show?? ;-)

[@galacticwarlock2271]

This is so amazing. $80 bucks for not food and then mansplaining. OMG

[@RA-go5qk]

Oh my gosh, this got me so worked up. This WAS me and my ex-husband. It’s been 15 years since we were married, but this brought me right back to my previous life. Yowser!

[@Hunter-mw7xt]

This literally made me laugh out loud, waking my wife. Now I have "mansplain" to her what was so funny.

[@doktormcnasty]

The thing that really grinds my gears is how unappreciative they are after I've taken all the time and energy to explain things at them FOR FREE! They just take it for granted like it's no big sacrifice on our parts. Unbelievable. Not even a thank you, sir most of the time.

He's really crushing it.

[@deirdreryan6147]

This is a wonderful skit. Sarah and Jason are so fun to watch. I love it when Jason goes lower and lower into the covers, as Sarah gives him an "esplanade" about mansplaining and he comes back with femsplaining. Thank you so much for your talent.

[@andyweightman-pilv5704]

I've never seen this woman's work before, but my god she is awesomely funny!

[@fairwitness7473]

OMG, hilarious! Ouch 20% less effective! Sarah is a genius! Bonus to hubby for being a great supportive partner. You guys make a great team! Would be fun to hear a wife/husband monologue that has independent complimentary timing but both are talking independently about marital complaints that everyone has...

[@Harbinger57]

That is not her actual husband, it's fellow comedian Jason Kyle. In real life Sarah is married to Jeff, also known as The Luckiest Man On the Planet.

[@raymondchandler697]

Now I really understand mansplaining. Why did it take me so long? :-)

[@racerx1189]

Why Lorne Michaels hasn't called yet is beyond me. If he hasn't called that is. Love you Sara, you're awesomely funny and very beautiful. 😘❤️✌️

[@mzc6365]

That last line just sent me rolling! You’re epic! Keep it up, Sarah

[@randylowther8539]

Thanks to you and your team for the many laughs -- please continue!

[@sandramorey2529]

Wonderful. It actually made me a bit angry because I have experienced it my entire life. Even those who are liberal in their thinking-when it comes letting a woman talk-they follow that pattern. Thanks Sarah and Jason

[@celtglen]

UH? How did this guy get into this lovely woman's bed? DUMP HIM NOW

Um, this is a fictional skit, and Jason Kyle is another comedian, not her real boyfriend. You do know that, right?

Couldn't watch past 1:17. Too effective at enraging me! Maybe I'm just too stoned.

Or not stoned enough :) It was hard me too to watch but I was curious to see how it ended.

[@BobStein]

I found it hard for the opposite reason: too embarrassed. (But the finish is awesome.)

My PTSD was triggered watching this.

[@terrencebunce1964]

Mansplaining is like having all this pent up frustration after a...difficult day or week and lets say on Friday afternoon evening showing where you really stand in amongst folks at a traffic intersection and showing to all your status when the light turns green ...If it's complete, you feel relieved satisfied (boo yaa moment) you have achieved that point of self actualization assuming there is NO traffic cop hidden at the corner or behind you to give you a speeding ticket or a ticket for reckless driving, you make it home on that Friday evening in that delusional mind set you've completed something...this week.

What some posters here are missing is the irony that they are both doing the same thing...only 20% less effective. Brilliantly written and acted. These people should get married and make copies of themselves, so that future generations can enjoy them too!

I'm guessing Jason enjoys being buried alive - because he tried to get the last word in while it's clear that Sarah has a shovel.

[@tulelazule7231]

LOFL I had a picture of a caduceus in my house. Two guys , rather than thinking, "gee she has it in her house, she must know what it is" they talked on and on about what they "knew": The first guy goes, "OH! a CARTOUCHE". I said, no, a cartouche is like a signature seal on an Egyptian king's name, surrounded by kind of like an oval. Nope! Both guys went on that they knew what a cartouche was and it was a medical insignia. Oh yes, they one-upped each other and one-upped and spoke over me for 10 to 15 minutes. But never asked why I had it on my wall or even what it meant to me (I mean, since it was the topic of great interest). And never listened AT ALL regarding caduceus and cartouche not being the same thing. So, they never got beyond square in learning one thing about the origins or meanings of the caduceus as they were too busy boasting and man-splaining. LOL

[@daysjours]

The guy is so funny -- really good stuff. And so silly this premise. Very good.
