“We try to keep all our guests happy,” Chieng reacted. “So the task’s ‘First Time Female Director.’
“Film? You’re also — you’re also a first-time female director,” Chieng stated, stumbling a little bit. Which mild journey gave way for Peretti to include a joke at his expenditure.
“This is going good. Could I get the regular host?” Peretti joked. “We said we wouldn’t roast each other, and look at us!”
“Alright, alright,” Chieng reacted, taking a look at his cards. “I know, look at us going at each other now. Uh, ‘First Time Female Director’ — you had a very Larry David, ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ vibe, right?”
“Docu-style, yeah,” Peretti stated, supporting herself for a dig of Chieng’s very own.
“Very, very hand-made. Was that intentional, or was that lack of budget?” the host quipped.
Peretti giggled. “I’m trying to spur him to come after me because I’m a big fan of Ronny’s — I just want to say that, I really am.”
“No, I’m a huge fan of yours, too,” the host stated.
He proceeded: “We never met, but you were very nice to me over the pandemic. Over Instagram, and I was a huge fan of yours watching your comedy specials. I love your music album that you released during the pandemic. It was about coffee.”
