Um, but also I am comfortable being like, turn off their mic. Turn off their mic. Right. They're going on too long. Turn off that mic. Cut the microphone. Cutting off the microphone is such a powerful move. I agree. Because the person is just reduced to like, what are you going to do now? Start screaming? I can scream too. And my voice is amplified. I'm going to win this one. You know?

Yeah, I like to be amplified in good light with my voice being heard and the audience sitting in the shadows.

I feel like there's a thing when you're, especially as a comedian or anyone on stage, the audience is really just a bunch of subs. They're just a bunch of submissive little bitches who want to be told what to do. They want to be told when to laugh. They want to know where to look. Audiences naturally want to be. When I'm in the audience, I want to be submissive.

I don't want to be in control of the room. I want to be guided through this experience. So when you're on stage, especially as a comedian, you have to be dominant. Even if it's not you in your real life, you have to be a dominant force. You have to guide the audience through this experience. And if you don't have the control, they start to feel uncomfortable and they will rise against you.

I'm like, get me a fucking drink. Yeah.

I'm like, get me a fucking drink. Yeah.

I want to take this moment to apologize. Exactly. Me and my buddy, the bartender, we were having a long night.

You've lost control.

You've lost control.

You have to have prepared bits on how to deal with an audience member. Yeah. And for the most part, you know, I've been doing stand up now for 16 years. And for like eight years of it, it was in the gay bars, which is just loud, rowdy, drunk. Everyone in the audience thinks they're funnier than you, better than you, can wear your dress better than you.

And I'm like, I mean, I was used to dealing with really raucous, raucous people. They were just wanting to argue, wanting to challenge me. So I built some really good chops for dealing with hecklers. But for the most part, my audience is, I've gotten pretty good at keeping control.

And also when you like scold your subs, when the dom, you know, scolds her subs, you have to do it in a way that is in the spirit of the show. So it still has to be fun. It still has to be funny. Or else they're like, oh my God, you know, Mommy just yelled at us.

There's a she-wolf in the closet.
