I mean, that's...

There is so much I could share about that, you know, that, like, uh, I was definitely sort of the black sheep.
8:57
Um, there w- there was a strange tension in my family too because, uh, both my parents were married before, so my brothers are half brothers from each side of the family.
9:06
So I'm, like, the only one yoking everyone together, but I'm, I was also seeming a little bit like an alien in terms of my interests and inclinations.
9:16
Um, I think in my early life, um, you know, early, uh, childhood and up into early high school, I was playing so hard and hitting so hard because I wanted the love that I was gonna get from my family, and I a- also probably didn't wanna face the criticism and the ridicule because they were, they were really serious about, about sports and all of that stuff.

They're really cute.
10:25
They get all excited.
10:27
Yeah, and they always do this, you know, like with their hands when they see what the new food is.
10:31

I wanted to share, I like this notion that you're bringing up, the gratitude thing.

So what do you guys do about your inner child? Do you ever let it come out and play?
14:30
Because I was like, I'm like, listen, I'm like, and then all of a sudden I'm like, wait, did I miss, I missed a chapter somewhere.
14:36
Yeah.
14:37
Transition.
14:38
Yeah.
14:39
You know, it's a wonder that I ever actually did because I think there were parts of my personality that were really addicted to the drama and the attention.
14:48
And I played kind of a hell raiser often.
14:51
when I was in shows.
