So a 10-year-old doing that was like, and then I did Bill Cosby.
I won't do the impression now because, yeah.
But at 10 years old, I was killing.
And so it was one of those things where like, all right.
And you hooked.
I remember my mom, my brother, and my sister-in-law being in the audience.
It was only the three of them in the crowd.
And then when I went out there and I did the impressions in the crowd, they just applauded.
And I didn't know what the reaction was supposed to be.
I didn't know, are they supposed to laugh?
I didn't know what to expect.
So when I went out there and I did the characters and the voices and they're just applauding and this and that, and then
At the end, when I said, thank you, good night, and people started standing up and they're applauding.
And I'm like, I didn't know that this, that that's like that.
I didn't realize at that moment that audience understood what they were watching.
And I don't want to sound arrogant, but they, the crowd knew what I was doing before I knew what I was doing.
And in hindsight, because I've been back to my elementary school, I've been back to that theater, I've been back to that room, and I realized like, wow, that moment, like who knew?
You were hooked.
I was very much hooked.
I was very hooked.
