Halloween is coming up.
Were you one of those kids you have
like a memorable Halloween?
I have memorable Halloweens.
I remember when I lived in Massachusetts,
in Amherst, Massachusetts,
in those years between like seven, eight, nine,
the really good Halloween years,
we used to run from house to house
and then steal each other's candy.
And I remember that, that was ideal.
Well, speaking of costumes,
Kill Bill turned 20 last year.
So did you get to keep that jacket?
I'll still see that girl at Halloween this year.
Yes, you will.
Did you get to keep anything?
I have my costumes, yeah.
I do.
That's amazing.
Yeah, I have my sword and I have my costume.
That's very cool.
So there's a story behind the outfit, right?
It was, was it once a onesie?
It was a Bruce Lee onesie.
Okay.
And he looked pretty awesome in it.
Yes.
I had just had a baby and I was like, literally.
That's rude.
No, it worked really, really, really hard.
No, I'm just saying,
I didn't look like that after having a baby.
That was six months of training five days a week
from nine to five.
Oh God.
Yeah.
Cause I tend to really like food
and not be able to stop eating it when I'm pregnant.
Or I don't even have to be pregnant.
I just love it.
In general, but in pregnancy,
it's especially like the thing, you know?
I should eat it all.
I remember my mother telling me like,
you know, only about 10 pounds of that is the baby.
The rest is still going to be with you.
Enjoy your Sunday.
Oh my God.
I was like, oh.
And then way too late at that point.
You take it on.
Oh my God.
I love your mom.
Oh yeah.
She tells it like it is.
That is my mother.
100%.
She doesn't kid around.
Enjoy your Sunday.
Don't worry.
You'll fit into that shirt one day.
And I was like, well, I wasn't worried about it until now.
Until you mentioned it.
They're hilarious.
You just saw Batman and Robin co-star.
I did.
We ran into each other by accident.
It was a total joy.
Yeah.
By accident.
That's amazing.
Yeah.
Because that was years ago.
Yeah.
Because my kids are obsessed with Batman and Robin.
They love Poison Ivy.
It's the one that was actually made for children.
Oh, well, my kids love it.
And they love the kissing and the fact that you're poison
and you kill people.
I don't know what that means.
I don't know what that foreshadowing is,
but they love it.
So what was that like?
What was that costume like?
That costume was really difficult actually
because it's all rubber.
Yeah.
And you have to like pull it on.
Like imagine like the worst pair of like
airplane tension hose you ever got into in your life.
Or like the worst Spanx.
The worst, yeah.
It was the original.
It was the meanest sort of Spanx imaginable.
But it was fun and creative.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
I got to put big weird horns on my head.
I've seen that movie.
I have no idea how many times because of my children.
She's probably going to be at Halloween too.
See, yeah.
Well, if you're rocking that body, congratulations.
