I was like, hey, are you guys ready?

I'm gonna be doing talks.

And they're like, where are you doing your talks?

And I was like, well, I'm gonna be in Sydney.

And they were like, is Sydney the place where the fire alarm went off right before you went on stage?

I was performing at Sydney Town Hall

two Julys ago.

And yeah, right before I was supposed to go on, they just loaded everyone in, the fire alarm went off.

And I just totally forgotten about it, which was hilarious.

Actually, here's a clip from that.

So I'm like five minutes before going on stage to do my talk here in Sydney.

And then the fire alarm went off and we've all had to evacuate.

The whole place is empty.

They just let me back in.

It's never a dull moment, which is actually what I'm gonna talk about a little bit in the talk, which is that you gotta roll with the punches.

You can't let it shake you.

You just gotta deal with it.

It's funny, right?

Like you could talk about stoicism, but if you do anything out in the world, if I was getting there talking about,

I don't know, black and white movies.
