So it's like, let me just do that again.
I don't really have time to plan a trip.
And if I plan a trip to Boston, I don't even know who I'm going to connect with.
So if I go to Skid Row, I know I'm going to find gold.
And the more I went down there, the more I got more integrated into that community and the more I got more good stuff.
So then I became the Skid Row photographer.
I haven't been down there in months.
I still get people that...
I have people down there that are finding people and they bring them to me in Santa Monica now.
But what I think I'm doing is just capturing like all these stories of American life.
Kind of like Studs Terkel is doing, but probably with a darker feel to it.
Yeah, I'm getting exposed to a lot more than other, the viewers do perhaps.
But I'm also not, like, I get criticized sometimes.
Like, I'll be interviewing somebody and they tell me that they've
got a brother and sister or like, and I'll ask them, do you have siblings?
Like I make mistakes because I'm not, I'm doing so many, I'm doing six, seven, eight of these a day.
And sometimes like the only way I can possibly do that and that maintains the quality of content for me to post every day, which I probably don't have to do, but that's what I'm doing.
That's what I decided when I started is to not pay full attention.
So I don't absorb all the trauma of your story.
Interesting.
