I think that part of like, I think loneliness is about comedy.

I agree.

Comedy breaks down these walls.

Yeah.

It breaks down these walls and in a can at times, then a given opening, it's like you open a, you take away the armor for a minute, opens a soft spot to, to open your mind to another idea or see that we are all, we all laugh at the same shit.

We all bleed the same color.

I mean, it's really interesting.

And I think that when you sit around and you, yeah,

I think, first of all, I think social media and being online gives a lot of people courage that they otherwise don't or some kind of stupidity that they otherwise don't have in real life.

And number two is that these television stations, the news and all this other stuff, it is there to divide us because that's what sells advertising.

And I love going to see live comedy for that, for one reason.

Yeah, it feels good to be in the same room laughing with people, to have a calm and something.

Well, maybe just cool people like your comedy, Phil.
