But not as a grown, not as a grown.
When I was a little kid,
My agent, Aggie Gold of Fresh Faces Agency.
And I was a kid actor.
She got an audition for a kid for Sesame Street who could pogo stick.
So naturally she submitted me and they called and they said, can she pogo stick?
We really need someone to pogo stick.
She said, of course she can.
She calls me and she says, you got to learn to pogo stick.
My mom, like I think borrowed a pogo stick from a family friend.
And of course I made this mistake.
I pogo sticked.
On the floor, I would say marble, but we all know it wasn't marble in my house in Long Island, but that's what it looked like.
The tile-y, granite-y moment.
These boys' shorts, exactly the same.
And I'm pogo-ing, and I fall forward, and I smash my nose.
That's when I still broke it.
And I go to my next-door neighbor, because my parents weren't home.
