So I was just 173 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 3: like class clown, like always making jokes, always talking in class. Okay, 174 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 3: I started doing like improv in high school and that's 175 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 3: where I found my voice more. But like it was 176 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 3: I think like class clown was kind of my identity 177 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 3: for like most of her middle school high school, just 178 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 3: like shouting something out to the subject right right, and 179 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 3: then the teacher usually liked it too. So I feel 180 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 3: like I never really got in trouble. It was always 181 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 3: like funny enough that I skated. 182 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 2: By that that's great. I was always in trouble because 183 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 2: I also couldn't stop talking. But none of the things 184 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 2: I were saying were funny, and I was whispering them 185 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 2: the person next to me, and so they were always 186 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 2: just like, stop your hearing. I should have taken a 187 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 2: cue from you for sure. When you say you started 188 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 2: improv in high school, did they have Did your high 189 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 2: school have an improv class? 190 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 4: We had? 191 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 3: So we had like an improv company that was like independent, 192 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 3: and I got into that eventually. But I had a 193 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 3: teacher who told me to take improv classes in Chicago. 194 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 3: I grew U outside of Chicago and evan'st Illinois, and 195 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 3: he was like, you should take classes at improve Olympic 196 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 3: because they have no age limit. I think that was 197 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 3: the reason because at Second City you had to be 198 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 3: you had to do teen classes. And he suggested that 199 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 3: I just not do that but go with the adults. Wow. 200 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 4: And so how old were you? I was a senior, 201 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 4: so I was eighteen. 202 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 3: But like it was really, I mean, it was like 203 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 3: that changed everything because once I was doing that, I 204 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 3: didn't really I had like a separate life, right which 205 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 3: I you know, I was meeting all these these new 206 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 3: people and I was nervous and I would like just 207 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 3: go to these classes with like twenty four year olds 208 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 3: and be like, well, I went to prom like I 209 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 3: just I don't even know like what I was talking about. 210 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 3: I felt like I had nothing to offer. Also, so 211 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 3: I would get like self conscious, like they don't want 212 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 3: to hear my thing, or like I don't even know 213 00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 3: how to improvise because I only know. 214 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 4: What a teenager knows, right. 215 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 3: But then that was really important for me because it 216 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 3: showed me that like, literally anyone is interesting and like 217 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 3: everyone has something to say, and it's interesting that I'm 218 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 3: eighteen because they are not that anymore and now they're like, 219 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 3: what's your experience now?
