But you control how prepared you are for when it happens. I agree. It's hard. It's hard to do that work when no one's asking you for it yet. Yeah. It's hard to keep going. Exactly.

And I mean like, You say it's different, but like it is very similar being like what you do with social media and stuff like that. Because like, listen, you were putting stuff out on the Internet before anybody gave a shit. You know, and it takes like a lot of time to build that momentum and get to where you are now.

I will say, like... Stand-up is very different. I use a very different part of my writer brain for stand-up than I do when I'm writing scripts. I will say the transition from plays to screenwriting wasn't that big of a leap. You can be a little bit more dynamic and a little bit in certain ways, and you can be a little bit more experimental in theater.

sort of like the confines of like theater make it really exciting to write for, because like, it's like, if you want to do something really interesting, and this is my thing about theater now is like, I don't want to see a play where it's just like two people talking and like somebody's cutting vegetables and doing laundry.

Like, like these, like, cause I'm like, this could be a movie, like anything that I'm like, this could be a movie. Like what makes it so immediate and so special as a play, as a piece of theater? Like,

Like, like these, like, cause I'm like, this could be a movie, like anything that I'm like, this could be a movie. Like what makes it so immediate and so special as a play, as a piece of theater? Like,

because it's like i see so many plays where it's like oh you wanted to be your screenplay you know yeah what about it like makes it special in this space like in front of a live audience you know like what can you do like work around that and so i you know it's it's different in that regard but like the fundamentals are the same in screenwriting playwriting so

Yeah, because it's like I go up and I like I'm not somebody as a stand up who like sits in a coffee shop and like writes down the jokes verbatim in my notebook and then goes on stage and says, you know, word for word from the notebook. Like I write down little like premises and ideas and thoughts and things like that. And then so much of my writing process as a comedian is about writing on stage.
