How are you Wanda?
I'm doing quite well.
How are you, Conan?
I'm okay.
I think I speak for all of us
when I say holed up with family during quarantine,
it can be great
and then there's a whole other side to that coin.
How are you doing?
You know what?
I'm afraid to complain.
That's how I am.
You know, it's like, "Oh no, I'm good, I'm good."
You see the rest of the stuff that's going on.
I'm like, "You know what?
"I'm pretty good."
But yeah, it's ...
I know exactly what you mean
about being held up with family and doing the online study,
you know, school, it's, yeah.
Well, who's like, for example,
who does the cooking in this situation?
In your house who does the cooking?
Well, I like to cook.
I like to cook.
So, I do most of the cooking,
but it's been, you know,
like I said, not going to complain,
but I haven't had an oven
since like two weeks before Thanksgiving.
Did your oven blow up or something?
What happened? Our oven just died.
I don't know what happened.
Usually when I go away
for a while and I come back, something's broken.
Something's not working anymore.
So, this time they killed the oven.
(Conan laughs) So, I've been ...
You know what, I was thinking about it.
It's hard to kill an oven.
It really is.
Hey, I don't know how she did it,
but Alex broke a Volvo.
(Conan laughs) You know how hard it is?
Do you know how hard it is?
(Conan laughs)
To break?
Alex is your wife.
She broke a Volvo? Yes.
Yeah, I shouldn't say she did it.
Well, all I know is my car was fine
and then she drove it.
I came back.
It was in the shop for like two weeks.
(Conan laughs)
Wait, so you don't have an oven.
How do you cook if you don't have an oven?
You said you haven't had an oven in months.
What do you do?
Right, everything is been going on the grill.
Anything that needs to go in the oven,
I cook it on the grill
which is real fun when it's standing in snow.
Yeah, that's right.
'Cause you're on the east coast now.
So, man.
Grilling out in the snow, it's not a joy.
No and I know my neighbors are probably like mad.
"I knew black people like barbecue,
"but she is taking it to the next level."
(Conan laughs)
This bitch is always on the barbecue.
(Conan laughs)
This is not helping with the stereotype.
That's the problem, yeah. Not at all.
Now wait a minute.
Are you doing shopping yourself or you do Instacart?
Like a lot of people like to get on the phone
and do that Instacart during a pandemic.
Or do you like to go yourself?
I like to go myself.
I don't go often.
I make a quick list.
I do a huge shop and I do the face mask
and the face shield and all,
but I was in a Whole Foods spending my kid's college fund.
(Conan laughs) And ...
You gotta do that joke.
I don't know why we all do it.
Trust me, you go to Whole Foods
and you look at like a bag of grapes
and you think, "I need to call my accountant first."
It's incredible, yeah.
So, yeah.
But anyway, so you're at Whole Foods ...
Right And I'm doing my shopping and at first,
I guess not really paying attention,
but I'm like, "Wow, there's a lot of young black people
"in here, shopping in Whole Foods.
"We coming up, this is nice."
And I realized like,
"Oh no, they're shopping for other people."
(Conan laughs)
No, like all.
They're the Instacart shoppers, right.
They're doing- Yes, again.
They're actually doing the shopping.
And then I was like, "Damn,
"all these young people putting themselves
"at risk, doing the shopping.
"And they got to go home to their parents
"or other family members who, like I said,
"it's like really putting us at risk."
But hey white people, enjoy your Chilean sea bass.
(Conan laughs)
Don't even think about it.
Yeah, that's not right.
That's not right, yeah.
Well, what about, are your kids (laughs)?
Are your kids (laughs), I'm thinking,
"Nope, I have not eaten Chilean sea bass for a while
"so I have no guilt there."
