I don't know, man.
It's...
It was both.
It was my kids and my wife.
My wife kind of spearheaded the second dog because she thought the first dog was lonely.
And I'm like, what are we here for?
That's why we're here.
but i don't know so it's it's a it's a male dog that we got first and then we got her female sister um and it's it's it's not not good are you often not vocal on things like i wouldn't think that would be much of a problem there's an old joke that when you marry a jewish woman that's the last decision i've ever made is to marry a jewish woman after that i haven't no i don't make those decisions uh
I just sit there and go, hey, I don't think that's a good idea.
And next thing you know, there's two dogs at the house.
So that one I wish I was a little bit more vocal about, but what are you going to do?
Well, I think when you start out as a comedian, very rarely do you go up there and give them the true authentic you because there is almost like, at least for me, I put like a protective layer over me going, I'm not going to give you it yet.
because I don't know how to, so I'm going to mask it with this character, this anger.
And after watching it back, I'm going, it's not likable.
I mean, I'm looking at me going, I wouldn't watch this guy.
But that just comes with repetition.
That just comes with going on stage and trying to find out who you are on stage.
And you've got to peel back the onion so much where at the core of it, what you're seeing on stage is just a,
kind of exaggerated version of yourself, and that's not easy to get to.
At least for me it wasn't.
