Yeah. No, I was... It's like... I don't know. I'll try to make it short, but basically... No, no, no, no.
Keep it going. So basically, I got in a lot of debt in college. I was in a lot of debt, and I needed a way to get out of it, so I actually taught myself how to write code. And then... Oh, shit. Yeah. Like, full-blown code... Yeah, yeah, I mean, like, I was not, like, a high-level software engineer, but, yeah, I was, like, doing, you know, basic, like, web engineering and stuff like that.

And so I ended up working at an ad agency, and then there's a comic who worked with me. Shout out Andre Paradise. He... You know, we just, like, shoot the shit in the break room, and he was like, hey, man, have you ever, like, thought about doing stand-up? Like, you have that energy. And I was like, I wanted to try, but I just don't know anything about that.

So he's like, oh, why don't you come check me out? And so... He set it up like I was going to go watch him do a show. And it ended up being an open mic that a lot of people now were at. Like Quinta Brunson would go there. David Lucas was there. Wait, who? Quinta Brunson. I fucking love Quinta Brunson. Jackson McQueen ran it. He opens for Rife now. The Amsterdam Cafe.

My whole thought there was like, if I got a little bit of a following, maybe they'll give me five instead of three minutes.
