Yeah.
It's going to get...

It's going to get so much worse.
If you want to be a comedian, you have to be okay with total and complete humiliation in public on multiple occasions in front of possibly people you know.
You're going to fail in ways that are like people's worst fear.
And if, so if me being like, don't be a comedian stops you, then...
you're done already.
So the reasons they said no to you were basically- Were they good reasons to you?
Yeah, they were just like, most people don't make it.
You're gonna waste your time.
Most people aren't funny.
You're not gonna put in enough work.
You're already too old.
There's all these reasons and they were all super valid.
I did it.
by the grace of God, I'm lucky.
I always like the statistic that's very funny to say is there's more Navy SEALs than working comedians, which is real.
There are a few thousand Navy SEALs.
There are not a few thousand comedians touring for a living.
