BETH HOYT: You guys, we're back.
It's time to get into your comments.
Also, we all just conversed about the,
the, the hair trail.
Brett, can you?
And we all decided that it's, it's, it's the man,
it's the man trail.
What did you say?
Happy trail.
But Brett's is kind of the Appalachian
Trail, is what we think.
Because it starts all-- you know.
So we figured, don't worry.
Well, anyway.
This is from you guys.
RETTA: It's a rather aggressive trail.
BETH HOYT: We have a tweet from you guys.
We want to address yours.
This is from TJzycho.
Yes!
Does Retta improve her lines much?
I swear she does.
Her delivery is so natural.
She's a hoot.
RETTA: I'm a hoot.
I got that twice yesterday.
BETH HOYT: That's true.
RETTA: Sometimes.
The, the, the line in the water balloon episode.
The water fight episode where I say, do I look
like I drink water?
That was improvised.
BETH HOYT: Amazing.
That's my favorite of your lines.
RETTA: But I don't.
Most the times it's just the scripted stuff that gets on.
BETH HOYT: Well, they need to pay you more, because that's
one of my favorite lines.
Next tweet is from KristenApp.
A-P-P. On #parksandrec, Donna gives tons of dating advice.
Any chance we're going to see her on a date?
That's a good question.
RETTA: I'm hoping.
I'm hoping.
And she just followed me.
I saw that.
She must have been one of your followers, because I just saw
that she just started following me.
BETH HOYT: Well, she's a follower, yeah.
RETTA: This is live.
BETH HOYT: See how--
what's your name?
Extreme--
RETTA: Extreme29.
BETH HOYT: Come on.
Another Twitter, another Twitter question from
Lilyomara is what went down between Lavondrius and Donna?
Also, Genuwine needs to make a cameo.
Make it happen, Retta.
RETTA: Um, I believe Genuwine wants to be on the show, so
there's a chance he'll get on if we can schedule it.
Uh, Lavondrius borrowed my car, you know, the Benzo, and
didn't bring it back in time.
And so you don't mess with my ride.
BETH HOYT: Right.
RETTA: And so we have issues.
BETH HOYT: That's, yeah, you're done.
Comment from YouTube is from trulyblonde237, Donna Meagle
is my spirit animal.
RETTA: I get that a lot.
BETH HOYT: You do?
RETTA: I get that a lot.
Yeah.
BETH HOYT: How do you feel about that?
RETTA: I thought it was weird at first.
I didn't, I didn't know that was a thing.
And I was like, what is that?
Don't call me an animal.
What does that mean?
BETH HOYT: And then you're like, oh, you're welcome.
RETTA: And then I heard that it was something cool.
BETH HOYT: You're like, oh, thank you.
RETTA: So I accept it.
BETH HOYT: That's great.
That's very cool.
Another comment from YouTube is from CallMeCarson.
For Retta, is Aziz Anzari-- did I spell that right?
Ha ha--
as funny in person as he is on the show?
RETTA: Nope.
BETH HOYT: Yeah, so, first part, no.
RETTA: You did not spell that right.
BETH HOYT: It's OK.
RETTA: The last name has an S. And he's way
hilarious in person.
BETH HOYT: It's true.
Yeah.
RETTA: You know Aziz?
BETH HOYT: Well, no, but I mean, I can, you know, I'm a
pretty good judge of how people are--
RETTA: OK.
Got it.
BETH HOYT: Another tweet is from--
RETTA: Lady Presh Presh.
BETH HOYT: Yeah.
Your skin is so amazing.
Any secrets, or just lucky?
Or both?
RETTA: Uh, just lucky, I get it from my mother.
BETH HOYT: Yeah.
RETTA: But I will say I use, I use FX Powder on my face.
BETH HOYT: Yeah, get those plugs in there.
Get them in.
Get them in.
And also, if you don't already, I mean, then just
send her more of the products.
She deserves it.
RETTA: Please.
BETH HOYT: A tweet from Bekah Burroughs.
Do you relate to your character on Parks and Rec?
RETTA: Um.
BETH HOYT: What percentage of, are you--
what percentage of you is Retta--
What percentage, hi prepositions.
What percentage--
RETTA: I'm Donna.
BETH HOYT: Of Retta is Donna?
RETTA: Oh, what percentage of Retta is Donna?
Um, probably 50%.
BETH HOYT: Yeah?
RETTA: Um, yeah.
The only thing I don't vibe on is the hair and the clothes,
because she dresses like she lives in Pawnee.
BETH HOYT: Right.
RETTA: And I refuse to dress like I live in Pawnee.
BETH HOYT: I mean, clearly.
That's, that's a good.
That's a good thing to keep in the character zone.
RETTA: You know what I'm saying?
That wardrobe.
One more tweet.
This is from the BlueGray11.
For Retta.
If a wizard turned the Parks and Rec cast into various
animals, what would they be?
Don't exclude Jerry.
RETTA: What would they be?
Um, Ron Swanson would be a badger.
I think that Tom Haverford would be
a very fancy squirrel.
BETH HOYT: Like, with a tie.
Like a little bit of a disheveled tie.
Like, I wore this for-- like, a fashionable tie.
RETTA: Of course.
BETH HOYT: Not a--
yeah.
RETTA: Not a skinny tie.
BETH HOYT: I'm sorry, continue.
Leslie Knope would be a very eager rabbit.
And Jerry--
BETH HOYT: A lot of woodland creatures.
Of course, because Indiana.
RETTA: Right.
And Jerry would be a sloth.
BETH HOYT: Yep.
And what would you be?
RETTA: What would I be?
A sexy fox.
What?
BETH HOYT: Yep.
Well even, you didn't have to include the sexy.
That's implied.
But I mean, but we like that.
Of course.
RETTA: Yes.
Sexy fox.
BETH HOYT: Oh, man.
