Oh, no, no, no, sorry.

You never know good luck or bad.

And what you think is bad luck now turns out two months from now or 20 years from now to be the best.

decision you ever made, the best thing that ever happened.

But given the force that she was and is, she died in 2019.

My mom died in 2019 as well.

How was her death for you?

She makes me laugh now hearing you quote her.

I could talk to you for hours, but I know you got to go.

I so admire you and I so love this book.

It's The Uncool, a memoir.

Obviously, you are like the coolest person on the planet, but the fact that you feel uncool just speaks to your good character.

I have a live grief show on Thursday nights and people leave the names of their loved one for me to say out loud.

And I like this idea that everybody listening to the podcast will say the names of these people whose names are now often not spoken.

So if you just end by saying your dad's name and your mom's name and your sister's name.

Cameron Crowe, thank you so much.

Thank you, Anderson.

Thank you.

Cameron Crowe's memoir, The Uncool, is out now.

And if you haven't watched Almost Famous, it's worth seeing, as are, frankly, all of his films.
