This episode is brought to you by eBay Live. Here's how it goes. First, you're watching the eBay Live stream telling yourself, "I'm just looking." And then, boom, you see a vintage Rolex go for an absolute steal. Suddenly, a rare beanie baby pops up. Adrenaline hits, and you're bidding. You might lose that first one, but you bid again and win. 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. Hey, everyone. This is Amy Poehler. This is the first episode of my podcast. Thank you for being here. I'd like to be five or six years late to any trend. It only gets better from here, but or it only goes down from here. I don't know. We'll see. I just want to make it clear. I am not an expert. I'm not a therapist. I'm not here to change your life. I don't care if you get any better. I don't have advice for you. I just want us to have fun and lighten up a little. And I don't know. I want us to feel like there's a way to have laughs amid all of the craziness that is life. So if you're listening to this while you're working out or folding laundry or maybe you're sitting in your car, avoiding your kids, maybe you're listening to this, I don't know, in your in-laws basement, next to the Bowflex machine, and it's Christmas and you're questioning the choices you've made in life. Whatever it is, this is a show here to have fun and make you laugh. And I'm not here to judge. Okay, so my guest today is Tina Fey. Tina is my wife, really, in life. She is my comedy partner in many ways and she has, you know, I talk about it in the podcast a little bit, but she has been along this journey with me. We've really experienced a lot of things together at the same time in life. Sometimes I feel like Tina and I are kind of a group with two members. And we've had a lot of parallel things happen at the same time, kids and TV shows and career. And we're lucky enough to still like each other and want to tour together. So we're going to talk and hang out. And like any good hang, you want to make sure that anyone's invited. So without further ado, here are some of my fave people, Seth Meyers, Fred Armisen, Rachel Dratch, and Zarna Garg, a great stand-up and friend who's been joining Tina and I on the road. And see if they have any questions for Tina, anything they think I should ask her. And honestly, I just want to check in and see if they think this is a good idea. 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. [Music] Wait, Dratch's Zoom is in this door. Dratch is in a haunted New England attic. It's very dratch to join and then carry her laptop into every room in her home. We need to implant again now. Dratch is putting her headphones at it away. It's a 30% chance she strangles herself. I know, this is a very typical dratch entry. Dratch's headphones look like, you know when you were trying to untangle Christmas lights? Yeah, I didn't even know this kind of cord could tangle like that. I'm holding up everything. No, no, this is what Andy wanted. Just the sound of untangling headphones is great for like a first podcast and stuff. All right, ready to rock. Maybe I should reintroduce everybody since we're all on Mike here. Zarna Garg, Seth Meyers, Fred Armisen, Rachel Dratch, welcome to Good Hang. Thank you for being. It's great to be here. It's been a great hang so far. I mean, everything has happened before the future has been great. I mean, it feels like it's been real smooth.

That's on me. That's on me. You can hear this microphone okay? Does this sound all right? Check, check. Let me just go down the line and have everyone clap. We really need you guys to clap. Oh, I didn't hear Zarna. Okay, okay, okay. We really need to get this clap right guys.
