And then 152 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 3: I don't know what the politics are, but it's a 153 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 3: movie that needs to be made. 154 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: And because his life is complex, I mean, you can't 155 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: sugarcoat it is. What it is is his life. 156 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 3: He lived it, and I think it's his life. I 157 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 3: think it's his ex wife, wife who wants to make 158 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 3: it her story. Okay, because I read her book A 159 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 3: Fallen Angel, which was a good book, but Richard was 160 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 3: abusive and she wants it to be more about that. 161 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 3: And I met with Jennifer and I was like, look, 162 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 3: Richard Pryor is michaelm Max with punchlines.

But I write because I do 509 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 3: have a fear of going crazy. 510 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 1: You know, because you have so much going on in 511 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 1: your head. 512 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 3: No, because it runs my family. It's like diabetes. You 513 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 3: gotta know, you gotta know that it's a possibility, right. 514 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 3: And the thing is, you know, I can't turn my 515 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 3: brain off. I can't not think about these stories and 516 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 3: characters that come to mind. So rather than have them 517 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,959 Speaker 3: up in my head scrambled, I put them on paper 518 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 3: and I go one day I make money off of 519 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 3: this it or something. But I had to get it out. 520 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 1: Do you sleep? I do? 521 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 3: I sleep wonderful? 522 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: How you sleep so well? Again? And it's hard for 523 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 1: you to turn your mind off. 524 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 3: When you get sixty five, it's easy you just later. 525 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 1: I got to do it. 526 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 3: See the bed, it's beautiful. 527 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: Did cancel culture? Scare your way? 528 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 3: Cancel culture made me not really want to do stand up. 529 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 3: I had this long conversation with Dave Chappelle. He's like, man, 530 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 3: we need you to get back out there. Man, we 531 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 3: need you know, we need that voice come on. And 532 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 3: I was like, and I had done it again at 533 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 3: his you know, his him encouraging me to do it. 534 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 3: But you know what what today you can't be a 535 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 3: shock comic, especially if you're famous, right, because the hitch 536 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 3: in your pockets, right, so back in the day, guys 537 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 3: like Sam Kennison and Dice Club, and you know, that's 538 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 3: how I grew up. I grew up with guys that 539 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 3: you know, start trouble, you know they say, and it's 540 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 3: like people, you know they want to talk about comedy. 541 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 3: You got reporters talking about comedy. You don't know my world. 542 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 3: You are not qualified to talk about comedy. If you 543 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 3: ain't never bought a joke or tol a joke or 544 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 3: sola joke, or stole a joke or rot a joke, 545 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 3: you have no business talking about comedy. You ain't have 546 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 3: been paid in burgers. You can't talk about comedy. So 547 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 3: I think a conversation about comedy and what's acceptable should 548 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 3: be held amongst comedians. If Dave Chappelle wants to talk 549 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 3: to me about my act, I want to hear it. 550 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 3: If Jerry Seinfeld, if Jay Leno, guys who've done it, Yeah, 551 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 3: I want to hear what you say, because you're going 552 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 3: to do it in a way to encourage right, not 553 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 3: to just tell me you can't. I ain't never put 554 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 3: on a football helmet and got hit by no guy 555 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 3: your size and got up and did it again. What 556 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 3: can I talk to you about football just because I 557 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 3: watched some games. I can watch a thousand games, and 558 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 3: I can't tell you what a locker room smell like. 559 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: You know what I mean. 560 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 3: I don't know the camaraderie sitting on that plane flying 561 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 3: into bad weather. I haven't experienced that, so I can't 562 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 3: talk to you intelligently about it. Same thing with comedy. 563 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 3: It's a conversation for comedians, not reporters. 564 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 1: But Chappelle has been one of the few guys that 565 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: have been able to beat cancel culture because they can't 566 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: take because you know, normally, like you said, to hit 567 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,479 Speaker 1: you in the purse. But he's like, hey, I just 568 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: put up a dot com and I'll just go do it. 569 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 1: I don't need Hollywood. I don't need to do movies anymore. 570 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: So you can't really hit me where it hurts me, 571 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 1: which is financially. It's it's also. 572 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 3: He's a unicorn, right and Dave has raped rode the 573 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 3: wave right of you know, he didn't take any breaks. 574 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 3: It's when you take the break and then you try 575 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 3: to come back, then they can hit you and get 576 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 3: you because you you know, he already knows how to 577 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 3: talk to them. They're his puppets, you know what I mean. 578 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 3: They bow to Dave Chappelle because he is the only 579 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 3: real voice out there in terms of holding us down, 580 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 3: holding comedy down. So you know, yeah, I mean, but 581 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 3: you can't be a shock comedian today. You have to 582 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 3: have a conversation. Like I could do stand ups, right, 583 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 3: but it's like understanding you can't go on stage your 584 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 3: baby go, man, I hate my wife. And then now 585 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,479 Speaker 3: you say I hate and you hear women, you know, 586 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 3: and it's like but if you go on stage to 587 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 3: go I don't understand women, right, that's different. Now the 588 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 3: guard is down, help me understand why women are. 589 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 1: Like, you know, say behave in the matter with right. 590 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 3: It's a conversation, not a proclamation. Right, So yeah, I 591 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 3: could do it, but I like going on stage and 592 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 3: say I hate I want to hate stuff. 593 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 1: I mean, where versus was out? You like you like 594 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 1: to do a versus. 595 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 3: I was just having a conversation, right. Somebody in the 596 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 3: radiant goes, have you ever thought about a versus? And 597 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 3: I said Dave Chappelle? Because I think Dave Chappelle is like, 598 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 3: you know, like who should I said, you know, I don't. 599 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 3: I don't want to dog anybody here. But like you know, 600 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 3: I'm a great comedian, so I want to do I 601 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 3: would do a versus against another great comedian, you know 602 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 3: what I mean. That's all I was saying, but they took. 603 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 1: It out of they took it out of context. Uh 604 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: would trump being in office? The PC culture because now 605 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 1: people feel very comfortable saying doing pretty much anything. Are 606 00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: you okay with that? I'd rather know how you feel, 607 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: what you think? 608 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I'd rather say no, you don't have 609 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 3: the job, or say no you got the job, as 610 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 3: opposed to no black person, we don't want you to work. 611 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 1: Right. 612 00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 3: So I think it's you know, we've lost our way 613 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 3: I think as a society, and we're so you know, 614 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 3: I call it the deification of men where you don't 615 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 3: you know, it's like everything everybody is I don't know, 616 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 3: just solvet you know, And it's soft about. 617 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 1: Everybody scared to say how they really feel. 618 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like what what what's wrong with telling them 619 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 3: the truth? 620 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 1: Say it?

So here's what 633 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 3: happens with comedians is like you, This is why I 634 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 3: don't watch comics is because you are You can't help 635 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 3: but have that writer on in your brain go oh, 636 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 3: if he'd have done that, right. So the school I 637 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 3: grew up in, if you watch the comedian do something 638 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 3: on stage, and then you after he comes up, you go, 639 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 3: I got to I gotta tag for you, and you 640 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,919 Speaker 3: give him that joke that you wrote in your head 641 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 3: because that's his right. So when I was coming up, 642 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 3: it was like, we go this place called Canters, a 643 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 3: little dive on Fairfax, And after the colubs closed down, 644 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 3: like two o'clock in the morning, Jerry signed for be 645 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,240 Speaker 3: at a table and Jay Leno and my brother Robert 646 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,799 Speaker 3: Townsend and we were poor, were eating frenchies, sharing some 647 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:12,399 Speaker 3: French fries. That's how broke we were. But What would 648 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 3: happen is Jay would come over and go, hey, Ken, 649 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 3: and I saw you do this joke, and then I 650 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:18,319 Speaker 3: was thinking of that. And then Keene would get up 651 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 3: and go and tell Jerry, and Jerry would come on 652 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 3: and tell our sinio, you know. And it was like 653 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 3: a community. And if another comedian was on stage doing 654 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 3: somebody else's act, they would yell up, that's just the serio. 655 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:35,279 Speaker 3: Really in the middle of your act.

I laughed, because Cat is funny. 676 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 3: Cat is one of the fewest comedians that in one word, 677 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 3: you know who it is. I'm marry as soon as 678 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 3: he opened his mouth, and Wanda Sykes, Chris Roth, you 679 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:52,240 Speaker 3: know that means you have a clear and distinctive voice. 680 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 1: Right. 681 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:57,319 Speaker 3: So when I watch a comedian, I'm watching funny. I'm 682 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 3: watching what's going on behind his eyes, and he goes 683 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 3: I'm and he reaches for his drink and then he 684 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:10,320 Speaker 3: starts and he's thinking funny, he's really roasting these guys. 685 00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 3: People took it, you know, like personal, like he's trying to. 686 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 3: He was just having fun, got that liquor in him, 687 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 3: had the fire going behind him. You know, he was 688 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 3: like feeling stuff. I don't think I personally don't think 689 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 3: it's that. I feel like we're a fraternity and there's 690 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 3: enough stuff going on out there for you to be 691 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 3: talking about instead of talking about what's going on in here. 692 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:40,880 Speaker 3: You know, what I mean, because you know, I, like 693 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:44,240 Speaker 3: I said, I think it's funny. But everybody steals jokes. 694 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 3: You know, it's like it's not stealing the joke, it's 695 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,359 Speaker 3: once you know it's not yours, and you keep doing it. 696 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 3: That's the crime. Because this is you know, it's funny 697 00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 3: how it works. The mind just works, and it's grabbing up, 698 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 3: especially for you know, people who don't write jokes, right, 699 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,799 Speaker 3: they just go up on stage and talk, right, Kat 700 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:12,719 Speaker 3: Williams talks, you know, Steve Harvey, you know, that's what 701 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 3: you just talk. It's almost like being an NC and 702 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 3: you go, hey, where are you from? 703 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 1: What you do? 704 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:20,319 Speaker 3: And the first thing that comes to mind is what 705 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 3: you say? But sometimes you're saying the first thing that 706 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 3: came to your mind is somebody else's joke. 707 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,160 Speaker 1: Do you have to give it? If you steal somebody's joke, 708 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 1: do you have to give them credit for it? No? 709 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 3: You know, Robin Williams was a notorious thief. His manager 710 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 3: used to walk around with a check book and Robin 711 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 3: would come off stage and commedimly say, hey, he just 712 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 3: took me an age to write him a check seventy 713 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 3: five dollars damn. Because he knew Robin was all stream 714 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:54,879 Speaker 3: of conscious and he would steal material he was known. 715 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,720 Speaker 3: Comedians would go, I'm not going on because Robin's here. 716 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 1: Right, you know, but it's it happens. 717 00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 3: But I always look at like comedy like this, If 718 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,760 Speaker 3: it's not the last joke I'm ever going to tell, 719 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 3: I ain't gonna treat it like that. Oh okay, you 720 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 3: ain't taking my wife or my kid. It's just a joke. 721 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,879 Speaker 3: That means I got to think of something else, right, 722 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,800 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. But for people to be all, 723 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:27,359 Speaker 3: you know, up in arms about a joke, really, what 724 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:30,440 Speaker 3: is the joke? Did the joke in the war and 725 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:31,760 Speaker 3: you know in the Middle East? 726 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 1: Right? Was it that powerful? Then? What you're tripping over? 727 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 1: The creator from the Jamie Fox Show say he and Jamie, 728 00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken, haven't received a check because he said, 729 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 1: the networks there they're still in the red and if 730 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,879 Speaker 1: they're operating at a loss twenty five years later, it's 731 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: hard for and I think a lot of people when 732 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 1: they hear that, it's hard for them to believe, especially 733 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 1: with the success that the Jamie Fox Show enjoyed. 734 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 3: Well it was on a network, yeah, right, so I 735 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 3: made a lot of money off a wife, kids. I 736 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 3: can't relate to that. It's a different network though, So 737 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:09,359 Speaker 3: Jamie and you know, and Living Color too, I get 738 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 3: like residual checks for thirty nine cents. I'm like, what 739 00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:13,320 Speaker 3: is that? Trying to be funny? 740 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:16,279 Speaker 1: Yeah right, yeah, that saved the posterage for that right. 741 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,399 Speaker 3: So, but but that's what they send out. 742 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:18,759 Speaker 1: Now. 743 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 3: What happened with these upstart networks. WB was one of them, 744 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,920 Speaker 3: Fox was one of them. They got these sweetheart deals 745 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 3: from SAG and AFTRA where they didn't have to because 746 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:33,840 Speaker 3: they were an upstart, right, but they still, you know, 747 00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:37,359 Speaker 3: operating as if they just started right and WB my 748 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 3: brothers didn't really make no money off the Wayne's Brother show. 749 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 3: So you know, like I said, I made a lot 750 00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:45,720 Speaker 3: of money from wife and kids. 751 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 1: So that's why, yeah, I still get checked. Not to 752 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,439 Speaker 1: rub it in, but I still get checked my wife 753 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 1: and kids. What's your favorite memory, because I mean, like 754 00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 1: I said, you would voted one of the greatest TV 755 00:40:58,160 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 1: dads of all time. 756 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 3: Greatest moments was the bond that I had with Tsha 757 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:07,560 Speaker 3: and George and Jennifer and Lil Parker. You know, it's 758 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 3: just some of the best times. And you know, everything 759 00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:14,879 Speaker 3: I do is family.

You that's your 1331 01:12:25,880 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 3: master gland, yes, right, So Testarchian was low, my drenals 1332 01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:36,320 Speaker 3: were blown out. So I go there and what was 1333 01:12:36,360 --> 01:12:41,280 Speaker 3: crazy is I was starting to see cock eyed because 1334 01:12:41,320 --> 01:12:45,280 Speaker 3: the thing was the size of a lemon inside my brain. 1335 01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:48,320 Speaker 3: So if you do like this, that's where the petuitary 1336 01:12:48,360 --> 01:12:51,240 Speaker 3: is in the middle, right underneath. Doctor told me that's 1337 01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:54,160 Speaker 3: the best place to get a tumor because they don't 1338 01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:56,000 Speaker 3: have to cut your head open and went in through 1339 01:12:56,000 --> 01:13:01,559 Speaker 3: my nose right, so you know, I'm Jehovah's witness.

So I'm like, I don't know if I'm 1346 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:16,080 Speaker 3: do I'm just write it out.
