hi my name is Lisa kudro and I feel. good. no. what no really good boo y it's. terrible it's like you're in a hostage. situation that's one of your oldest. friends oldest and best friends who's. had Aug better than the first one I ever. did you said you were tired tired yeah I. was tired I know but what I don't. understand is that you've had I had to.
talking I owe so much to you you've had. a seismic impact on my life and then. you're. like it's funny right it's it's funny to. be mean yeah it is funny to be mean I. prefer it I prefer it wasn't funny it. was just no it was good I like it no no. don't do that never do that never judge. yourself and now to me it's a joke to. say I'm sorry after someone tells you. like this I'm not sorry okay um well. I'll take too no no no we're good I.
think we got it we got it and thank you. so much for being here oh thank you yeah. for having me back well I mean we like. hang out all the time outside of this. world so it's weird I always thought I. always felt a little was weird when you. would all those years you would come on. The Late Night show as you know the huge. TV star it was just always so like so. I'm so excited she's here and there. always felt like there was this thin. veneer of this is strange you don't no.
okay the first time I was on mhm you. said listen I don't like that thing when. people know each other you know on the. show and then you know they're just like. talking like they know each other it. leaves everybody let's not do that I was. like okay I have to pretend I don't know. you oh my God yeah so and then I put on. a mustache when you came out I know it's. it's my I'm going to use a term that I. think is trending right now it's my. hangup uh you know isn't that I don't.
know is but you you wanted her to. pretend she didn't know you no it wasn't. that is that true you didn't want to be. too inside I get I get so there's two. things if there are people I know in the. audience like family members let's say. it's Beacon Theater and there's 2 200. people if I have one family member in. the crowd it bothers me uhuh and then if. I have uh a. really like someone's important to me uh. personally.
but they come on in this and they just. finished this movie you know what I mean. called Jib Jab and the Honey Cuts here. she is Lisa kudro it feels weird do you. know what I mean I don't know why it. just feels weird to me I get it but but. the it was just the first time I was on. yeah that you said uh xay on the you. know yeah on the Friendship Fray yeah. and ship um and I went oh okay oh my God.
yeah and then I think I overdid it cuz. you came out and I said is it Lisa C. cudro and is it. f you couldn't pronounce friend and it. had been on the air it was it was the. biggest thing ever is it. FR yeah remember I tried super hard yeah. you went the other way I went the other. way now everyone's going to be looking. up yes okay wait what did you say he's. just an idiot I'm an idiot then you. warmed up to me.
I have a hard time it always I always. find it strange like okay for example. today I get up and they send me these. notes and it's like here's our research. on Lisa cudro and I'm like I've known. her. forever uh you're incredibly important. person in my life and it's just so weird. like here's your dossier and I'm like oh. her father is a doctor you know what I. mean it's just so strange start biology.
yeah stud biology and I I look at it and. I go don't what is. this no the researcher watch the first. episode it's like these two don't know. each. other okay I have one thing I have to. bring up to the whole room uh which is. which is weird um but I I'm very healthy. guy knockwood but I went to my doctor. recently and he said you know the last. couple times I've checked your blood. pressure it's high and so I said well.
I'll just test it at home which I did. but he said no that doesn't work you got. to wear a cuff for 24 hours oh a CU or a. there's a thing around my right now so. he they put it on me today a couple. hours ago and it's fine it's just going. to take my blood pressure for 24 hours. and God you know if it was a little high. they might give me something but I don't. think it will be anyway it goes on here. and this thing hangs off of me and it. looks like oh my God it's collecting my. urine is a giant there's a giant tube it.
clearly is yeah and it it it's there's. this giant tube and so it was so funny. because I'm all scrambled I I go racing. over there I get this thing and then I'm. driving back and I'm thinking right. right right who's on today and I'm like. oh it's Lisa who is going to who I know. because you're fascinated by all things. medicine you are and I just I just. thought you're either going to make fun. of this or I don't know what all I could. think to say was but then what is that.
yellow. liquid dripping out of it if it's I. thought I was supposed to urinate into. it and what does that. smell it's not bad no it's not bad at. all ammonia it. smells um oh thank you oh you're fixing. me up I'm like look at this my collar's. up you're fixing it I'm BL I'm showing. you the guys the giant walkie-talkie. that's hanging off of me his dro the. reason I'm bringing it up is that it's. some random point during this interview.
it's already happened like five times. since I drove away from Cedar Sinai at. some random Point you're going to. hear and one bicep is going to start to. inflate and then it's going to and then. you're going to and that's it but I felt. like well that's going to happen. probably while we're in here and when it. does I'll make sure I get the mic on it. you should do a betting pool on which. fraction of the podcast this is going to. happen you know okay a good way to.
monetize this never mind my possible but. anyway I just just wanted to get that. out of the way okay but let's do an. experiment then okay this is why I like. medical things okay the audience I'm. looking at you um so if you start. hearing that take a deep breath three. times if it when it starts to happen. take deep breath hold it you hold like a. like a minuscule little meditation thing. okay to bring your blood pressure down.
here's a thing and we'll know exactly. what time it is okay I that's true. that's true wait so to calm your your. blood pressure down but why would I. artificially give myself a different. blood pressure than the one I normally. have well to see if it can come down my. friend oh well at least you admitted we. are friends that's what came that's what. came out go in joke form you know what. in joke form yeah in a joke reality you. and I are friends listen to me my friend.
um but. uh uh yeah so that's I just wanted to. clear the decks that's what's going to. happen at some point and um it's not a. big deal I think I'm perfectly healthy. it's just one of those things that this. you know guy said and then they go into. this whole thing of we want that back. this is how much it costs and I said. yeah yeah I'll drop it off tomorrow and. they're like you need to sign a form and. I then I told them I was going to sell. it on Pico. Boulevard it's like $2,000 this mon. didn't that make your blood pressure go. off.
cuz mine just. $22,000 and now I'm really nervous about. this thing that I have to get back to. them at 11 so they're going to say I. need open heart surgery when I go to. them even though I'm I think healthy as. a as a horse with high blood pressure I. got enraged just what do you think of me. yeah I get that lecture oh my gosh no. not at all no I'm just if I were you if. yeah exactly and someone's telling me we. need that back well. what I really I always that always makes.
me go the other way I always go to try. and get it back and uh well I will I. mean I would yeah of course very. responsible but I would still get just a. little enraged hyper you're hyper. responsible don't you have to give it. back you in order to now I don't want to. give it back why would you not give it. back because I want this I want this. first of all it's called the Oscar 2 and. I want it I never got a real Oscar for. good reason never in a film but I uh I.
want this I want to keep it so and I. don't want to pick what do you mean I. can't I can do whatever I want well. that's why by the way I'm sure they went. H he's famous everybody knows who he is. he just like people give him stuff all. the time so we better let him know you. don't get to keep this you know it's. it's it's my version of I've always. heard that when uh big stars Divas go on. a photo shoot and they wear jewelry they. try and leave with the jewelry you don't.
you you've heard that right they try and. leave with things you would never do. that try or do or do yeah no what no you. don't do that stealing yeah it's called. stealing but I've heard about I mean. it's an old thing I have too my version. of that is I don't give the blood. pressure cuff back well you also given. Oscar 2 a big shout out and that that's. more than $2,000 publicity there you go. Oscar 2 yeah they owe you another they. owe me three of these I want the good. ones listen what's this bring this back.
on track I'm clearly suffering from high. blood pressure I'm a little off you. don't care mine went up too as you get. older it goes up because our what. happens our our capillaries get I don't. know.
