Yeah. If you work hard, I respect it. You know, I you know, you can you know, I work with a bunch of younger comics and you can't I don't believe you could teach someone to be funny. You either have it or you don't. And I tell that to the people I work with. But you can workshop it. You can say, OK, here's a joke and I don't know how to finish it or the middle is a little bit weak or whatever.

And you can actually workshop it and get the joke to be the way it is. But but and the process of working out a joke or working out a scene or working out a movie that's funny is that's really an incredible process that. You know, like you watch a famous comedy movie like Being There. It might not be like laugh out loud like if you watch Blazing Saddles.

But they're both brilliantly great comedy films written by two, you know, like Jersey Kosinski is one and then Mel Brooks and Richard Pryor is the other one. And they're completely different writers, but they have created, you know, really brilliant comedy. And I that's what I respect. The people who put the work in, you know, shortcuts, it's eventually going to burn you out.

Yeah, I I've been doing it for like 25 years around the world. And what it really is, is bringing a whole bunch of people together and working out your material and hearing the other people's perceptions. Like if I go on stage, I do my set and then I have the whole group sort of give me their perceptions. I don't have to agree with any of it.

The person that might be have never had done stand up or the person has been doing it for 20 years. But it's great to hear their perception because we don't know what we're like as much as other people.

So if someone says, hey, you're always touching your chin or when you say you say, you know, all the time and when a lot of we're afraid of the silence and the silence is one of our most cherished partners in comedy. Jack Benny got all his laughs on pauses. So in the workshop, a lot of workshops I'll do, you'll hear people say, you know, and I used to say that all the time.

But now I've learned to just use, because words are only one form of communication. You use your body. Like if I said to you, I was walking down the street and I saw this beautiful car, you got it. But if I said I was walking down the street and I saw this beautiful car, that little face that I made is just as much writing as the words that I wrote. And it's all it's all part of it.

So the more I do it, the better I enjoy it. And I've learned and have grown myself from doing these. Like I recently got a really great compliment. There was that movie everywhere, everything, every place. I forgot the name of the film. And there are two guys who had written it named Daniel, the two Daniels. And they they were being interviewed and they said, yeah, we took Eddie Brill's workshop.
