On the heels of the new season of Hacks, the actor and comedian HannahEinbinder dropped by the home of her friend reggiewatts for a chat about the end of days, AI’s imminent takeover, and the problem with pool parties
The curmudgeonly but charming female lead is a tough niche to fill, but Hannah Einbinder has it covered. After spending years shopping her deadpan absurdist standup around Los Angeles, Einbinder landed the lead role in HBO Max’sa dark comedy that propelled the 27-year-old L.A. native from cult figure in the local comedy circuit to bi icon splashed across every other billboard on Sunset Boulevard. OnEinbinder plays Ava, an upstart TV writer who falls from grace after an untoward tweet.
EINBINDER: It is what it is, and it will be what it is, if that is what it is—really there’s no cleaner way to say that. But I do believe that if that is how it ends up, then it is out of necessity., and it was just a shot of a man’s naked ass for two hours straight.WATTS: But at the same time, we do have these incredible TV shows and movies. And also AI is making such progress that it can possibly start to generate films.
EINBINDER: I saw a meme that I loved so much, it said, “Hippies are bad people pretending to be good, and punks are good people pretending to be bad.” Isn’t that so funny?EINBINDER: I mean, the word “hippie” in LA is so hard to even conceptualize because it’s like, does that mean “new age”? Does that mean it’s rooted in, like, a wellness practice?EINBINDER: Yeah. And that’s something that I don’t even ascribe to L.A. really. It’s more Portland, Vermont.
WATTS: Yeah, I hope so. It’s an opportunity for us to evolve beyond the petty—stirring up controversy on purpose to keep people occupied, and all that. That’s just a misuse of gifts and powers and opportunity. WATTS: It’s the most rewarding feeling in the world, isn’t it? When you do have that moment. And obviously some of us are more able to do that than others. I love going into a party where no one’s dancing and then I start dancing with my friends, we start having a good time, and suddenly everybody’s on the dance floor. It’s like, “I want more people to be dancing and having fun, so let’s just make a reality.
WATTS: Oh yeah. Actually taking advantage of the thing that generally is only a symbolic attractor. It’s almost like the pool party is more of a conceptual idea.WATTS: “It is a pool party because there is a pool.”EINBINDER: “The pool determines the attire for the party.”
