    Grace And I'm Grace.

    Amy And we want to f---ing help.

    Grace We're comedy writers in Los Angeles. And as a reflex to the madness on the news, we're keeping a positive but opinionated.

    Grace Talk to people we adore.

    Amy Crushes we have.

    Amy During these trying times, we all need a show that focuses on joy.

    Grace This is The Antidote.

    Amy Pow, pow, pow.

    Grace Hi, everybody. Welcome, welcome, welcome. We are back. I'm a little crazy today. We finished shooting last night at 1 a.m. and here I am in the morning and I feel good. I still haven't seen my friend. Hi, amy

    Amy Yay hi. And also congratulations to my friend for finishing her shoot. Like, literally, I feel like you've lived in New York for nine years.

    Grace I know I do too. I feel like it's been 20,000 years. I was young when I left. I'm old now.

    Amy But at the end of it you have a beautiful, magnificent, funny and hilarious show to show the world and hopefully we will be seeing it soon.

Holmes, a man I didn't know existed, you know, posted like a tribute to his wife, man, a year ago, like less than a year ago, posted a tribute to his wife about how I tried to make her leave and she won't leave because she's got a black superwoman energy,
