What is the is there pressure?

It's it's so much pressure just to be a comedian.

Yeah.

And then, you know, the good thing about being a comedian for the most part is that we get to sidestep all of the stuff of being beautiful people.

that sort of evens the playing field a little bit.

Yeah, but it's like a whole nother factor to be handsome and attractive.

And I had to get up and do standup as the whole company was just freaking out.

Already a corporate gig is like, you're fighting an uphill battle most of the time anyways.

Yeah.
