That's right. Make America go away. I do love the tone. It's very bitchy. I mean, they should make one that says, oh, seriously, America, just kill yourself already. So basically, the people of Greenland really hate J.D. Vance in particular, which means, as always, Donald Trump is right. They really are ready to be Americans.

I know, we give it to everybody. No one ever does what they're told and wears it on stage. I also have to thank you for something else. I've never told this story on air, but I was lucky a couple years ago. I was doing shows with Dave Chappelle in Ohio, and they said, hey, Ronnie, we have a plane for you back to New York, but do you mind dropping off Bill Murray? Okay. along the way.

And I was like, are you kidding me? I get to go on a plane with Bill Murray? Does he want me on? And like, no, no, he's great. Yeah, totally. He wants you on. And you let me get on your plane so I could get out of Ohio. So I really appreciate it. Thanks so much. Hey, that goes for all of you.

And the whole time I was on the plane with you, you were so generous, you were so kind, you were very considerate. You were trying to time the flight so I wouldn't hit traffic in New York. And I couldn't believe you were talking to me. And the whole time I was like, oh my God, I'm living... one of these legendary Bill Murray stories right now. Like I'm in the story that I keep hearing about.

And so there's all these stories about you kind of popping up around America. And I just want to ask, like, is this kind of philosophy of life, of this live in the moment randomness, is that something you kind of carry into your self-expression?

Yeah, but it is a conscious choice, right, to be present, because not many people can do it. I mean, you've said yourself you try to make yourself more available.
