It's like right now this feels good, but it probably looks bad.
Yeah.
Yes. But when you're dancing, I feel like you're feeling it. You're letting the feeling of the dance, the music is moving you.
And I think I do some of that when I can break out of my self-conscious. But a lot of the time, I think I'm dancing like I'm putting on a show, which can be stressful for me and anyone I'm dancing with.
Yeah.
That's why you're good.
Like the way that you dance now.
No one taught you to do that. You just do it.
Right. Because I was just thinking maybe you can teach me how to dance.
But then I was like, that's not how it works, Jack.
Will you be my Kevin Bacon?
I remember it was like illegal to dance in that town. Oh.
I can't believe she asked you to. Here's a confession, OK? I had never laughed harder than when I first saw Gallagher. On television in 1974, 1975. I was just like five or six years old, maybe seven. And he was on a show called Laugh-In, which was a game show, which was just random audience members on stage. And then these professional comedians who would make them laugh.
That was the whole point of the game. And you had to not laugh.
Okay. You're right. Not laughing.
And I remember seeing Gallagher and, uh, he did the funniest shit. Yes. He was, he was exploding pumpkins or, or watermelons, but he also did this one where he came out and he was just like, uh, you vegetarian. He had a banana, you vegetarian. And, and, uh, The person who was the contestant was like, no, me neither. And he peeled off the banana and there was a hot dog inside and he took a bite.
And I fucking laughed and cried. And I was like, this is the genius. This is who I want to be. I want to be Gallagher. And then, you know, over the years and the decades go by and you have different heroes. And I was like, yeah, he kind of faded in the past. But I always remembered. No one made me laugh harder than that when I was six years old. And then I heard like the saga.
The drama. A friend of mine wanted to make a movie, a documentary about his life because mainly of his drama that he had with his brother who he taught all of his moves to. He's like, look, we're going to franchise this. You're going to do what I teach you to do and then you'll go out as Gallagher too. And his brother was like, yeah, teach me your ways. I'll do it. And then.
Over the course of the years of them doing this, he and his brother kind of had a falling out. And Gallagher was like, you know what? We're done. You're not Gallagher 2 anymore. I'm pulling the plug on that. And then Gallagher 2 was like, I choose not to stop. I am Gallagher. In fact, yeah, maybe I'm Gallagher 1. Maybe you're Gallagher 2.
And the manager, Gallagher's manager, sided with the brother for some reason. Whoa, I didn't know that. And it got fucking weird. And I just thought, this is Shakespearean, this. And then the manager also, he had a kid in the neighborhood who would come over all the time and was like, you manage Gallagher?
