Billy BrykGUEST
A- and like obviously when you see a joke a million times, it doesn't make you laugh every single time.

Billy BrykGUEST
So sometimes you have that instinct to like can I push this further? Do I try to make this funny to me every time I'm watching it? But in my opinion, that's kind of a dangerous game to be playing, where it's like if this really made us laugh as we were writing it and we feel like this is the most sort of most grounded version of this performance, the, the, the read of this line that we think worked best, we have to trust it.

Billy BrykGUEST
Um, and I'd say more often than not, the stuff that we thought was the funniest, like our instincts were right.
