no and they were also on the periphery of they were not fam like they weren't show business is not all the top you know there's like this mostly not it's mostly the bottom you know which is like a huge ecosystem of show business and so for me i guess i always just thought of show business as that it was like

It was the same thing as being a doctor, which my dad ended up being like a doctor or a lawyer or a baseball player is like firemen.

You know, it was just that the business was was not far away in Hollywood.

It was like right in front of you.

And obviously, as you get older, this fact about the two of them becomes something anyone would like cherish and think back fondly on.

But at the time, were you ever embarrassed by it?

Did you was there ever any part of you that didn't like it?

No, the only thing I didn't like, no, I was never like embarrassed.

I always felt behind the eight ball a little bit because my parents were so weird, you know, like weird and singular.

And, you know, so like I remember, you know, we grew up in New York City for a little, for most of my childhood.

And then we moved to Chicago when my dad went into medical school and we got to the suburbs.

And like, I...

didn't know like how to play hockey I didn't know what hockey was like I had just and I knew New York had a hockey team I guess but like when they put the the stick down and the and the puck I was like didn't know what to do and like got made fun of and then and I feel like I was like um like

I feel like I feel like a lot of my adolescence was catching up because we moved around so much and so much of my life was in the back of that car.

And like, you know, so and we never had roots down.

So it was like I feel like that's the only thing that I was ever kind of like upset with my parents on the rest of it.

I think I'm too shallow to think of.

What was the car your parents had when you were a kid?

It was a Dodge Aries.
