Amy Poehler Recalls In-Flight 'Fight' After Man Objected to Her Swearing Near Ana Gasteyer’s Baby

The Good Hang recollection frames the early-2000s encounter as a verbal standoff, not a physical altercation.

Overview

  • Poehler shared the story on a recent episode of her Good Hang podcast during a conversation with Ana Gasteyer.
  • She said a first-class passenger complained they were too loud and took issue with swearing near the baby.
  • Poehler described her response by saying "my Boston came out," characterizing the exchange as a heated back-and-forth.
  • Gasteyer identified the baby as her daughter Frances, now 23, and called Poehler’s reaction "the best thing I’ve ever seen."
  • The episode also prompted nostalgic memories from their Mean Girls and SNL years, including recollections of Tina Fey developing the film.
