Emmanuel SonubiGUEST
So we've spoken about when I'm writing jokes, that I will speak to other people...

Emmanuel SonubiGUEST
If I'm writing a joke, because I love to do jokes where I'll use a trigger word, but I'll use it in its proper context.

Emmanuel SonubiGUEST
Because there was a joke I used to do about a doorman I used to work with who's a dwarf.

Emmanuel SonubiGUEST
And we used to do this thing, because when bouncers get bored, we wind people up.

Emmanuel SonubiGUEST
So I thought about it the other day when someone said, what have you been up to this year? And just sort of speaking very quickly without thinking, I was like, oh, well, we did Austria, then we went to Melbourne, and then Sydney, then New Zealand, and then back to Austria, and we did – all these different places just came up.

Will ShortHOST
Do you think that would help? Maybe sort of Smith's-esque, a single-decker bus, admittedly, crashing into a group of zombies? Would that help? Oh,

probably charming, right? When you're a comedian as well, you can just get away with it if you're a bit cheeky and

Ella McCrystalHOST
But the truth is still the same, isn't it? The core wound is, will they like me?

Emmanuel SonubiGUEST
And I, with stand-up, I remember writing my first five minutes of comedy and then your brain goes, what if I can never write another five minutes again? What if that was it? And then you slowly get through that and your five becomes a seven and it just...

Emmanuel SonubiGUEST
And then I remember getting my first 20 and thinking, what if this is it? That's a lot of material.

Emmanuel SonubiGUEST
What if I never write another joke? So every time I got to the hour mark, I was like, that's all of my material.

Emmanuel SonubiGUEST
And now for a lot of the people, um, I think an excuse, which is what happens a lot now.

Emmanuel SonubiGUEST
So before, we used to identify a problem and go, "Right, how do we fix it? Or how do we live with it?" And if we...

Emmanuel SonubiGUEST
So I think if we use, um, physical health as an example of how people deal with mental health.

Emmanuel SonubiGUEST
So if, for instance, so I had asthma as a kid, so before I knew I had asthma, I'd get out of breath quickly.

Okay, and what's one thing you'd advise men start doing today to improve their life, either physically or mentally, whatever?
