And that winning rush? Incredible, because you beat everyone to it. Meanwhile, on eBay Live, you don't just watch the action. You're in it. Download the eBay app to stream and shop live. eBay Live, things people love. Hi, everyone. Welcome to Good Hang. I'm Amy Poehler, and we have a great guest today. It is Martin Short, the hilarious and kind and generous and just deeply talented person who I grew up loving and love even more now as a grown adult. We're going to talk to Marty, as his friends call him, about Canada and the SNL 50th, and only murders in the building, and how it felt to have COVID and not be able to accept an award that he won. But what's really exciting is we're also going to talk to some other comedy legends who love Marty and who want to talk nicely behind his back and tell me questions that they think I should ask him. So joining me before we get to our interview are Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph, and Colin Jost. This episode is brought to you by Zoom. Many of us have been there. The calls where you zone out for one second and miss six key points. The quick check-ins that are anything but quick, because here's the thing. Every conversation creates work. With Zoom, though, the conversation itself can actually move work forward. Zoom is now a full system of action that can actually complete work from the context of your existing meetings, calls, and chats. No more post-call panic. No more inbox avalanche. You talked about it. Zoom got it done. Visit zoomahead.com to learn more. Maya and Colin, I'm being asked, would you mind flipping your phones to the side? Yeah, and I know this seems weird, but can you hold your credit cards up to the screen too? Oh, yeah. We just need to see. Yeah, we need the CV, the CV. We need the DVC. Joost, I don't know if you know, but I already did a podcast with Tina, who nicely came in to be interviewed. I look forward to doing one with you. Maya, I look forward to doing one with you. And Joost, you were name-dropped in the interview that Tina and I did. We were talking about how much we love going to the lampoon. So we're doing this thing where we're asking people to kind of talk behind people's back in a good way. So I've got the great Martin Short on today. Never heard of that. And you've all worked with, yeah. Never, but I bet he's good if you like him. Yeah, I like him. I think you should check him out. I think he's funny. I found him on TikTok. Oh, so I guess my question is what, yeah, you know, how much do you love Martin Short? What do you love about him? What do you think I should ask him? When I think about him, I think he's evergreen. He's always funny, and he's always up for being funny, and he will always make you laugh. There is just an unbridled joy in him in the pursuit of being funny. I mean, don't get me wrong. He works hard at it, but you can see that he loves it. And you can also see that he loves to be among funny people. There are some funny people who love to be solo acts. And he's not one of them. I think he's one of those people that thrives among the funnies. And he's just like a great guy. So inherently, that comes through somehow through the comedy, which makes you love him more. When I found out that he had a stamp in Canada, I was like, Oh, that, that, that checks out. That makes sense. You're perfect. That's awesome. Yeah, I got to look at the image of that. Is it just him or one of his characters? I wonder. My memory is it might have been one of his characters from halfway. It's a regular stamp, but he owns it. Yeah, Canada is a much cooler place because I think Catherine O'Hara has a stamp too. I'm just saying, I don't think any of us are getting stamps in the next. Four to four years. So I'm going to ask him about a stamp. Tina, Joest, anything you feel like I should ask him or anything you want to say about Marty? I love Marty. I want to, I want to claim my love for Marty early. Like, I know, I love him. I've also had a crush on Marty from like decades before everyone else. I remember I came to New York
