Bill Burr is walking in his shadow, honestly. Bill Burr would recognize Bill Hicks and go, yeah, that guy. Right up there with Lenny Bruce, as far as I'm concerned, as far as freedom on stage to do whatever you want. But funny. No offense to Lenny Bruce. When Lenny Bruce was going through his trials, he would get up on stage and read his transcript for his trials and complain.

Like, he wasn't telling jokes. He was just ranting. And it was interesting, but it wasn't like, here's my act. It's a ballsy move, though. Yeah, but, like, he didn't give a fuck. Yeah, clearly. Which was great. But when he was funny, like a groundbreaker, no doubt about it. But then he just was, like, angry man. And no kidding, they were trying to put him in jail and putting him on trial.

Like crazy. So Bill Hicks was like, he had the freedom and the rights that people like Lenny Bruce earned for him. And then he was able to just talk about anything. So the story I heard, which is a true story, was the club owners were like, hey, Bill, welcome to the club. And they picked him up at the airport. Glad to have you here. And we know what your act is, but we're Christians.

And we'd really appreciate it if you didn't say the word fuck. That's really our only rule. Right. And he went, all right. And first of all, Christians made them an enemy. Because he came up with Sam Kinison and the same club in Texas. And they were like part of these Texas Outlaw comics. There was Bill Hicks, Sam Kinison, and a couple other guys. But those were the two main ones.

So that was his attitude. Fuck you. I'm going to get up here and do whatever I want. And I'm going to do a bump before I come on stage and tell you I did. And everybody knows I'm on cocaine right now. Go fuck yourself if you don't like what I'm saying. Leave. And that was his attitude. And he got up on stage and for as long as he could talked about fucking a child. Oh, my God.

And then he was like, great, there you go. I didn't say the word fuck.
