At first, I didn't think it was real. I woke up to this blinding light, and I was transported to another place.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:07)

**SPEAKER_1** (0:08)
Then I heard a voice.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:10)
Come with me if you want to live.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:12)

**Alison Brie** (0:15)
The truth is out.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:17)
It's just so beautiful.

Welcome to I Think You're Overthinking It, episode number 1167
We are now in our second consecutive episode of the video version of the podcast, which is available on AMC Plus, and also we'll be coming to other digital platforms like YouTube and Spotify, which I think is going to start next week, which would make that, let's say, probably around the 15th, probably around the 14th of the 15th, these episodes are going to start populating on these other digital platforms. So I had seen a comment where someone was like, oh gosh, I don't have AMC Plus. And I would say that is okay. It's great if you have it because you will already have the episodes. But if you don't, then you will be able to find it on YouTube at youtube.com/athardwick and also on Spotify. It'll be up there, I believe, in the same podcast feed. If I'm not mistaken, the podcast feed will be the same and you should be able to watch or listen to it on Spotify. And if I'm wrong about that, we'll just add that to the learning curve.
So thank you so much. Alison Brie, by the way, is amazing, has been coming on the podcast since the beginning of the podcast. So funny, incredibly talented. Obviously, you've seen her in Community and Mad Men. And she has this really great horror film that she did with her husband, Dave Franco, called Together, and which I highly recommend. And then also Masters of the Universe. You can go see Masters of the Universe right now in theaters. She plays Evelyn. And I just think Alison's the best. And this chat is so fun and funny. And I really thank you, Alison Brie, for coming on to the show again. And thank you for listening to episode number 1167 I guess I could say thank you for listening or watching episode number 1167 of I Think You're Overthinking It. Start the thing.
Alison Brie, back on the podcast, I feel like the last time, you know what's so strange is the time dilation?

**Alison Brie** (3:20)
Yeah.

**Chris Hardwick** (3:20)
Because I think the last time I saw you in person was like pre-pandemic.

**SPEAKER_3** (3:24)
15 years ago.

**Chris Hardwick** (3:25)
But that's what's happening now is that you see people you're like, I think it's been like six or seven months. You're like, nah, it's been like seven years since I saw you in person.

**Alison Brie** (3:32)
It's everybody doing the 2016, 2026 photo thing. Have you seen that trend?

**Chris Hardwick** (3:38)
Yes.

**Alison Brie** (3:39)
And you're like, 2016? That was just, yeah.

**Chris Hardwick** (3:43)
Oh, no.

**Alison Brie** (3:45)
But I'm, oh.

**Chris Hardwick** (3:46)
How is that? Because that would mean that I'm.

**Alison Brie** (3:51)
I gotta go.

**Chris Hardwick** (3:51)
I'm getting a phone call.

**Alison Brie** (3:52)
I have to go. I lost my voice and I'm getting a phone call. It's terrible timing to be talking about my age or.

**Chris Hardwick** (3:58)
I'm rapidly aging like the guys who looked into the arc at the end of. Yeah.

**Alison Brie** (4:03)
So I do feel like I just saw you. We were at your house playing with the pinball machine.

**Chris Hardwick** (4:07)
Playing with pinball machines.

**Alison Brie** (4:08)
I had a perm. I was doing glow.

**Chris Hardwick** (4:10)
You were doing glow at the time. Yeah, you were doing glow.

**Alison Brie** (4:12)
I didn't just have a perm for fun.

**Chris Hardwick** (4:14)
What? But they're fun.

**Alison Brie** (4:16)
They are fun.

**Chris Hardwick** (4:17)
My stepdad in 1985 had, I loved him to pieces. He was the sweetest man. He had a perm mullet.
So it was like a little longer in the back and.

**Alison Brie** (4:31)
What?

**Chris Hardwick** (4:32)
And permed.

**Alison Brie** (4:34)
The back was permed and the top was straight.

**Chris Hardwick** (4:38)
It.

**Alison Brie** (4:40)
Or the reverse. I want one or the other.
