So I was like, if I can understand this, I can understand.
So when you first came, you didn't speak any English?
Like I said, I learned it on the books.
But, like, if you drop a 13-year-old kid who learned Spanish in the books in Mexico, he's not going to be able to communicate with anyone.
So when I first came, I know, like, where's the library?
You know, stuff like that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But to have a conversation.
Man, conversationally, I just was like, people are talking way too fast.
I really can't understand anything.
anything so i was like really foreign when i first came here and and i trouble communicating i was in esl classes and stuff like that but yeah when i was watching bt i was like if i can understand this i can understand not just the language but also american culture because all the stereotypes and stuff like that i didn't know why people like skydiving you know and and and and there's comic was like uh
Y'all know black people all got bad transmissions.
I was like, I didn't know that.
I was like, what?
Black people have bad transmissions in their cars?
I don't even know if that's a true stereotype.
But I was learning new things and learning about the culture and the people.
That's why I thought it was so interesting.
It was probably my first inspiration of stand-up.
But I read that when you went to school, that was really the first time that you had really saw anybody outside of the Asian community.
