Yes.

I think so, too.

My buddy James McCann was on the podcast yesterday.

He's a comic out of Australia.

And he's from there, and he spends time here.

He was living here for a while, but he had to move back because he had another kid.

and but now he's coming back and forth and trying to figure he's really talented yeah he was living in austin for a couple years and living in america for a couple years living in austin for about a year but you know his wife's about to have another kid and they just decided to go back to australia where she's got support but man he fucking misses it he was here he's like mate i miss it so much yeah i miss it so much like

I don't think there's any place like this place.

It's pretty awesome.

But Australia, it's the same kind of thing.

It's a rugged place, and the kind of people that live there, they're fun.

They're fun, kind of got a super fucked up oppressive government, unfortunately.

It doesn't seem like it is to people because it seems stupid.

They're like, oh, you're just telling jokes.

For me, when I go and watch a good comedy show, I feel better.

It's medicine.

And I think it also puts life into perspective.

With a sense of humor, you can kind of look at things through a different lens and go, yeah, we're probably going to be all right.

it is with some i mean some people just do jokes it really depends on your style but i mean if you go back to like richard pryor his whole thing was like explaining life and telling stories yeah but with an amazing sense of humor and that you would leave that and you know like everybody feels like more united they feel better yeah just like you like what everybody was thinking yeah

It was everybody's thinking, afraid to say, and also he would look at things from a very wise perspective that was also hilarious.
