And I was talking to my girlfriend right before this and we've donated some money trying to figure out what I can do. But I realized, oh yeah, I'm going on this book tour. And it's hard for me to promote, to feel like I'm promoting a book tour and I'm promoting my new book when all these horrible things are happening. Then I realized she had this great idea.
She's like, donate the proceeds from your Los Angeles show to one of the charities that is helping people right there. And then I talked to my manager and he's like, yeah, you could do the three California shows because I'm going to do three California shows. And then I contacted my friends at this podcast, The Dollop, and I asked them about it. What charity?

So I'm like, what do you think about Habitat for Humanity for Los Angeles? So now I've got these three shows in California that I'm going to donate any money I make to Habitat LA. And I can only do that because I'm thinking and remaining calm and looking for a solution, not completely consumed by fear and anxiety. But it's a process, dude. It's a fight every day. It's a fight.

Well, it started out that area, Malibu, the Palisades is extremely wealthy. The homes that were on the beachfront were destroyed. These belong to wealthy people, but there are also normal people that live out there too. And there are working class people who were displaced. It's not just movie stars and so forth. And I think that's something that is a bit of a misconception.

I have friends who live all around there. And luckily, none of my friends have lost their house, but they've had to evacuate. I have a friend who's on tour right now as a comedian. And His house is under fire watch. It's like, okay, I hope my home is still there when I get back. And this is a working class comedian. He's not a bazillionaire or a rich guy. It's heartbreaking.

And no, I'm sorry to hear about your house. I am from a coastal area myself. I grew up in Tidewater, Virginia and Cape Fear, North Carolina. And hurricanes come. They definitely come. I've done some. Once again, it's a matter of looking at what you can do. A few years ago, Down in Brunswick County, North Carolina, in Cape Fear, a hurricane came and ripped through and destroyed a lot of things.

And so I stopped and asked myself, okay, how can I help? And I have a buddy who is a member of a disaster relief team. He's a New York City firefighter for years. And in his spare time, he goes in and does disaster relief. And his team came down to North Carolina. to do some relief. And since I have a lot of connections in the area, I went on social media and found out

And since I have a lot of connections in the area, I went on social media and found out
through locals where things were most needed and set up a distribution center. Because the Red Cross is a great organization, but there's a lot of bureaucracy, a lot of red tape. It's very slow moving. And my buddy, he's a former Marine, New York firefighter. He has no time for all that. It's time to get supplies to people. So I went and used my connections in the area to set up the stuff.
