I brought a briefcase to a meeting with Lorne Michaels full of fake cash, not real cash.
It was counterfeit money I found at a toy store.
because I was gonna bribe him to get me on the show so I had walked into this meeting and I was going to like what comedian walks in with a briefcase but I walked in I was just gonna start stacking money on his desk and just say Lauren we can talk till the cows come home we all know what really talks cash money and I'm gonna walk out of your office you can take it or you can leave it but I suggest you put me on the show anyway
I was too nervous to do it.
It was too frightening.
And I just sat there with a briefcase.
And I could never pull the trigger.
And I had this really intense, intimidating meeting with him, where he actually was kind of coaching me, because I had a call back the next day.
He was kind of telling me what I should do and not do.
And then I just walked out going, I must have looked like such an asshole, with a briefcase.
And then the meeting where he finally told me I had the job, I brought the briefcase again.
But the assistant said, you can leave your briefcase.
You don't need to bring it in there.
So then he finally told me I got hired and I walked out and I said to the assistant, like, I've been carrying around this fake money for six weeks now.
Can you give him some and say thank you?
And he actually thought it was very funny in hindsight that I was trying to do this joke that he would have never laughed.
I mean...
But yeah, that was partly true.
Yeah.
Yeah.
