There's a real distinction there, Terry.

But, uh, so yeah, it never really, it's funny.

I went, I went to boarding school when I was 12.

And again, my dad who, who came up through public school system in Winnipeg, um,

My dad was really, he was a little reluctant to send me there because he thought it was a bunch of rich kids.

And he struggled with it, this idea, because he was bound and determined that even though he did well and he was successful, that his kids weren't going to be a bunch of spoiled brats.

And that was important to him.

And so when I left, he wasn't all that upset that I left, to be honest.

Yeah.

I didn't have any training and there have been times where I regretted that I wasn't like in a sketch group or that I didn't do improv as part of an improv group in some sort of more formal setting.

You know, a lot of my friends came up through Second City and Improv Olympic in Chicago, etc.,

That's right.

And she created Upright Citizens Brigade, which has been an incredible training ground for plenty of really successful and funny people who we all know.

So, you know, I do wish that I had had that.

At the same time, I kind of fell backwards into comedy.

I wanted to be a serious actor.

I'd gone to Lee Strasberg.

I, you know, I...

I was young and I thought that I wanted to do stuff that would sort of be, I don't know, important or dramatic or emotional, whatever the heck it was at that age.

And then I started reading sitcom pilots because I needed to pay the rent.
