I went through hell.

I was like, it was really, really hard.

But I'm so grateful for it.

Yeah, totally.

When I trace Dwight back to the beginning, it's because I sucked in this Broadway play.

Mm-hmm.

When I came out of that, I was like, never again am I gonna do that.

And that allowed me to kind of be my natural weird self to play roles like Dwight in a way and embrace it.

We go through a little hell and then it actually opens a door and we're actually grateful for that.

Are you kind of grateful you were fired?

I still suffer from that though.

So I'm in my 50s, and I still get so much of my self-esteem from whether I'm working or not as an actor.

And it's like, yeah, and it's just crazy, like why can't I just feel so good about myself?

But also like this awesome body, and just like all, everything I'm working with.

That's my DJ name, DJ Dad Bod.

Just give me 10 minutes.

I think you could take, like, a 15-minute lesson on, like, YouTube, and you could be a professional DJ.

Yeah.

Sorry.
