Dax Shepard

As an adult, he would say, you know, I was just a scared 12-year-old, and I was doing the things that I needed to do to survive.

But the perception that I had of him...

I was this, like, fucking gangster who would literally kick the shit out of me and happened many times.

But through all of that, we became friends.

Speaking of being powerless or how do you think you can get out of it, we would think about this.

At this point, he's probably 13, I'm 10.

I really planned my escape at 10 years old.

We would just sit down.

Well, you know, Dave, smart kid.

Maybe you could go to college.

I'm like, college?

Oh, you know, what's college?

You can get money for college.

The funny thing about the ACCH or volunteerism in general is people do it for a short amount of time.

So for about a month, we had this karate instructor come and teach us a few moves of karate.

He went to college on the GI Bill.

That karate instructor had.

That karate instructor had, yeah.

You can get scholarships is the upshot.

And so from that moment on, the way I describe it is it's like in Harry Potter, the Patronus spell.
