Roy Wood Jr.

That's so funny.

Just look at him.

Correct.

Because he's from Ed Bradley.

Ed Bradley was probably Fred Hickman's OG, journalistically.

Correct.

As was Vanner O'Wright, who had CNN Headline Sports at the time.

People talk real crazy and talk and do the highlights real fast.

I just liked it.

I like it was different.

It wasn't the traditional box of conservative behavior that I was told that you have to adhere to.

So, yeah, so I get a job offer.

I had a job opportunity at the Tampa Tribune.

I had one at the Birmingham News.

Both were going to pay about 17, 14 or 17 thousand dollars by my calculations that year.

At this point, I'm going into my third year of comedy by my calculations.

I would have made 27 K that year.

And then I stopped minus gas and all of the other stuff.

But I worked hard enough in those two years in school that by the time I came out, I just did the math and it just fiscally made more sense to keep doing comedy.

And every year since then, it has fiscally made more sense to keep doing comedy.
