♪ Mystery and style ♪ ♪ And poison and tar ♪ ♪ Oh, we burn for cigarettes ♪ -Oh, oh, that winded me. Hi. I'm Camilla Dubadiamonds. -And I'm Terry Before. This is our show --
"Cigarette Show." -"Smoke Chat." We have not agreed
on the name yet. -Here, we talk
about the dying art of smoking cigarettes. -And give cigarette smokers
a voice. -Which, unfortunately,
sounds like this. -We, uh -- We work
down the street at Lenox Hill Hospital,
where our job is, we hold you still during an MRI. -Yeah, we do this show here because you can't smoke
within 50 feet of a hospital. -And this is 51, okay? As always, we're joined
by our band leader, who is also our boss, lifelong smoker
Dr. Lonny Rait-Dapist. -Ah, thank God
for you smoking nurses. You remind me
of the good old days. [ Coughing ] -Oh, I love ya, Lonny. You know, the three of us, we used to hate each other
for many reasons. -But turns out, we all smoke,
so now we're friends. -You only need seven minutes
to really know someone. -And that's how long
the cigarettes. -Now it's time
for our first segment -- places we have ashed this week. Cup...
-Shirt... -The floor...
-Bedpan... -Dog...
-Ashtray. -Where'd you ash, Lonny?
-A baked ziti, for seasoning. -It's time
to bring out our guest. Here to talk about
smoking overseas, it's some French tourists
I met at JFK. Please welcome
Brigitte and Florian. [ Mid-tempo music plays ] ♪♪ -Oh, uh, it is,
uh, "Kinky Boots." -Uh, well, no, this is a park
next to a playground next to a hospital by the river. -Ah, cool.
That is, uh, so New York. Apple that is big.
-Ha. Well, now tell us something
about smoking in France. -Well, uh,<i> c'est normale,</i> but one difference, in America, you smoke like this. -in France, we smoke like this. -Oh, I get it.
They're using tongue. Yes. -Hey, Lonny, tell us about when you used to smoke
in the hospital. -Oh, it was wonderful
back then. And the best was obstetrics, 'cause I'd knock out the mother
with laughing gas, perch my ashtray on the belly,
pull the baby out, and give him a drag. -No, you didn't!
-You don't know. Used to be,
during a long surgery, the nurse would come in and
carve a roast beef tableside. -Wow. So New York. -How else is smoking in France? -In America,
you smoke after sex. -Right. And in France,
we marry our husband's father. -Oh, well, it seems like something got a little lost
in translation there. But time for the educational
portion of the show -- things we heard. -[ Clears throat ] I heard that if you smoke a lot, it's actually better
than if you smoke a little. -Yeah, I heard
that if you smoke in bed, it's more comfortable.
-Yeah. -I heard that the show that is
very good is the "Kinky Boots." -Right. I heard the M&M's store
now sells spaghetti. -Oh, cigarettes are under attack
in America. -I mean, yeah, yeah, sure, they're bad for you
and they kill you. -But what people forget is that they look cool
and they feel good. And also they kill you, which
sometimes can be a positive. -Cosign, cosign. Now, before we wrap things up,
let's thank today's sponsor. -Right, our sponsor today
is umbrella. You can smoke in the rain
with umbrella. -But not a vape, 'cause those will blow up
in your face when they're wet. -That's all the time we have. Thanks to guests,
Brigitte and Florian. This has been...
