And she used to teach people how to draw.

And she said, when you, when you, when you, um, people start to draw, they immediately start, you know, drawing like the most tentative line possible because...

They don't want to make a mistake.

Yes.

And so the best thing you can always do when you're starting to draw is just, it's, it's to be sort of loud, confident and wrong.

So start with a really strong line.

And even if the line is completely wrong and you've drawn over the line, you know, you've drawn, you've drawn over that, that line will actually still be there, but the people appreciate the mistake before.

So you start with a bit of confidence, you know, the way kids do and you can,

you can redraw it just, but don't not draw.

But also, I mean, I did this kind of comedy for whatever, almost 30 years on television, you know, where people come on and I interviewed them and there's a band and I would pray for mistakes because mistakes were such gifts.

And then you get to a point where you're like, oh my, you know, here,

Someone will misspeak.

I'll misspeak.

I'll try to say Benedict Cumberbatch.

It doesn't come out right.

We then get off on a jag.

If you acknowledge it, and then it becomes about drunk driving, and then it becomes, and then it gets called back when we're talking about it.

That's the joy of it.

And people know instinctively, as you know from doing theater so much of your life, there's something about audiences where they know the truth.

I always think that about making mistakes in the theater, about people worrying about forgetting lines.
