Speaker 1: I'd like to add someone to not an asshole list.
Speaker 1: I recently did a show with David Spain and spent
Speaker 1: a day with him, and comedians can be crotchety. They're
Speaker 1: judgmental comedy snobs, which I get like they don't appreciate
Speaker 1: people that are sort of stupid and not funny. I
Speaker 1: can't explain it. Comedians overall don't have a lot of
Speaker 1: patience for bad humor and don't have a lot of
Speaker 1: patience for people. I've met so many comedians in my
Speaker 1: life it would be countless, and I've seen so many
Speaker 1: comedy shows, and there's just sort of in order for
Speaker 1: them to be so good at what they're good at,
Speaker 1: being so observational and complex and taking that risk and
Speaker 1: going on the road and sleeping in shitty hotels at
Speaker 1: all levels of fame and just what that takes, you
Speaker 1: get beat up all the time, and in order to
Speaker 1: be funny to begin with, like you're a little tortured inside.
Speaker 1: There's just a different type of breed that's a comedian. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I want you to know that people that are
Speaker 1: not assholes that are comedians is a rare breed. And
Speaker 1: it's not because I'm famous because I watch the way
Speaker 1: they act towards other people, if that makes sense. So
Speaker 1: like Amy Schumer is not an asshole, and it's not
Speaker 1: about the way she acts towards me. It's about the
Speaker 1: way that she acts towards other people. And by the way,
Speaker 1: people still act like an asshole towards me too because
Speaker 1: they're much more famous, et cetera. I'm saying I'm not
Speaker 1: judging this based on the fact that I'm a successful
Speaker 1: person and we're all living in this rare air and
Speaker 1: then people are nice to me. I'm observant too, and
Speaker 1: some people call me a comedian, which I'm not. I mean,
Speaker 1: I may be funny to some people, but I'm not
Speaker 1: because I haven't gone on the road and done the grip.
Speaker 1: But people do look at me as funny and to
Speaker 1: be a sort of comedic personality, and I do take
Speaker 1: a lot of risks. And I've always been akin to comedians.
Speaker 1: I've always had a soft spot for them. I've always
Speaker 1: watched comedy. I've always loved it. I went I took
Speaker 1: classes at Second City, I took classes at the Groundings.
Speaker 1: I've always wanted to do stand up. I did it.
Speaker 1: I love I would love to be a comedian, but
Speaker 1: I not. I don't think I would enjoy going on
Speaker 1: the road that way, and I don't think I have
Speaker 1: that part of it, which you need to. But I'm
Speaker 1: not a stand up comedian. Maybe I'm just a comedian
Speaker 1: in that I'm observational and I have a different That's
Speaker 1: what's beautiful about social media. You could sort of be
Speaker 1: a social media com You can do funny things and
Speaker 1: skits and improv. Another thing about comedians that I've noticed
Speaker 1: they do the same bit over and over. So they'll
Speaker 1: say something in their act and then they'll say something
Speaker 1: on a talk show and I don't ever repeat anything
Speaker 1: I don't like. I don't like like, but I'm bump
Speaker 1: like the same line and that turns me off. So
Speaker 1: I couldn't be a professional comedian because I wouldn't want
Speaker 1: to say the same thing fifty times. It feels authentic
Speaker 1: to me, But it's crafting a bit and an act
Speaker 1: and watching Miss Mazel, it's like saying the same thing
Speaker 1: and it's not ready, Like jokes aren't ready for me.
Speaker 1: Everything's ready. You just say it as you feel it.
Speaker 1: So the reason I bring up David Spain is I
Speaker 1: just did something with him, and I watched not only
Speaker 1: how he was with me, which was, by the way,
Speaker 1: a little dickish too, in a good way, Like he's
Speaker 1: the same cratchety person that you think he might be
Speaker 1: to me and to everyone, which I respect when someone's consistent,
Speaker 1: not like kissing my ass because I'm someone and then
Speaker 1: not being nice to someone else because they's no one.
Speaker 1: But it's a show that we did that we'll get
Speaker 1: into later, but like when it comes out. But there
Speaker 1: was this woman just this normal, like middle of the
Speaker 1: country woman and really sweet and really just like innocent
Speaker 1: and honest and nice, and David was so nice to her,
Speaker 1: and he was really nice to like to everyone. I
Speaker 1: just liked him. And it's funny because people expect celebrities
Speaker 1: to just be so friendly when they come up to
Speaker 1: them in an airport while they're eating launch or dinner,
Speaker 1: and they they should be nice, but sometimes, like I've been,
Speaker 1: I was on a business call recently with a lawyer
Speaker 1: and a girl came up to me while I was
Speaker 1: on a call in the Delta lounge and she was
Speaker 1: looked super sweet, and I could tell that she was nervous.
Speaker 1: But I was on the phone with a lawyer about
Speaker 1: something very important about this whole like union strike situation
Speaker 1: in Hollywood, and I I I was then on the
Speaker 1: phone with a reporter and I don't remember, actually I
Speaker 1: don't remember if it was the reporter or the lawyer,
Speaker 1: but I was doing calls, and so she came up
Speaker 1: and I like, she was like, hey, and I was
Speaker 1: on the phone, so I said, hold on to the person,
Speaker 1: and she said hey, like I'm a really big fan.
Speaker 1: I was like, thank you so much, nice to meet you.
Speaker 1: But I knew in my mind that and she was
Speaker 1: standing up and I was sitting down on these calls,
Speaker 1: and I knew in my mind that she probably wanted
Speaker 1: a picture, but didn't have the courage to say it.
Speaker 1: And so and this happened to me once with Brennan
Speaker 1: a diner where like it's happened before. Someone approached me
Speaker 1: in a bathroom at a stadium and I felt like
Speaker 1: uncomfortable that it's like a bathroom and I'm like, I
Speaker 1: haven't washed my hands yet, and You're like, can we
Speaker 1: wait one second and I'll come out. So in the airport,
Speaker 1: I said to her, thank you so much. She didn't
Speaker 1: ask me for a picture. If she had asked me
Speaker 1: for a picture, I would have said hold on. I
Speaker 1: would have stood up, but like it would have been
Speaker 1: a lot for me to say to the either lawyer
Speaker 1: or a reporter, like hold on, a girl might want
Speaker 1: a picture? Do you want a picture? Like it felt awkward,
Speaker 1: But when those moments happen, that girl can't say I
Speaker 1: was rude, but she could say like she would say
Speaker 1: like she wasn't the friendliest maybe you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: Like I was like, thank you so much, but I
Speaker 1: wasn't like thank you so much? Did you want a picture?
Speaker 1: Or did you want to get into a conversation? And
Speaker 1: I often think about that for the whole day. And
Speaker 1: I bet you other people that are public feel that
Speaker 1: way because you know that it's that person is intimidated
Speaker 1: and it could mean make that person's day and they're
Speaker 1: not going to see me again. And she's a fan
Speaker 1: and why I'm successful, But it's hard to every single
Speaker 1: time hit it right from my end because I was
Speaker 1: on the phone, and maybe she realized, like she should
Speaker 1: have waited till I wasn't on the phone, but maybe
Speaker 1: she had to go catch a flight. And I got
Speaker 1: up and I did look around the room to see
Speaker 1: if she was there, so I could be like, hey,
Speaker 1: did you want to get a picture? But I didn't
Speaker 1: see her, and that I thought about it, and I'm
Speaker 1: still thinking about it now. And that's why this is
Speaker 1: a ramp because David Spade is a person that I
Speaker 1: bet you if I met him, like, you know, you know,
Speaker 1: in a hotel lobby, he might be a little cold,
Speaker 1: like hey, nice, thank you, and like move on, but like,
Speaker 1: what is he supposed to do? Stop his whole life?
Speaker 1: And like my best friend, I met him in like
Speaker 1: a context with a normal, you know, civilian person who
Speaker 1: he was so nice to a whole crew. He was
Speaker 1: nice to me. He was nice too, And people that
Speaker 1: are celebrities have been dicks to me. Don't worry, I'm
Speaker 1: just a dumb reality star. That from their perspective. So
Speaker 1: everything is context and you can't judge books by their covers.
Speaker 1: But David Spade is not an asshole. That's what the
Speaker 1: headline to this is. David Spad is not an asshole.
Speaker 1: I liked him a lot. Megan Markle, you know, I
Speaker 1: talk about her a lot, and one out of one
Speaker 1: hundred people will say, oh, you're obsessed, and I'm not obsessed.
Speaker 1: I am definitely focused on it when I see it.
Speaker 1: I've also been hearing that they're splitting up. I'm sure
Speaker 1: it's a lie, but it can't be easy to be
Speaker 1: the two of them because the pressure cooker of having
Speaker 1: played the fame game and lost so far cannot be easy.
Speaker 1: I actually feel some sense of compassion because you can
Speaker 1: get you can gain something and lose it so quickly.
Speaker 1: And I think the cautionary tale for people that are
Speaker 1: not famous and not princesses and not duchesses and not
Speaker 1: in rare air is that you can't believe your own bullshit.
Speaker 1: You can't drink your own kool aid, and things can
Speaker 1: slip through your fingers so easily. So I think one
Speaker 1: of the reasons that I've been fixated by Megan and
Speaker 1: Harry more recently because I forgot about it for a while,
Speaker 1: was I've never seen I've never seen people botch something
Speaker 1: so astronomically, and everyone believes their own bullshit and thinks
Speaker 1: that they've got to going good when it's really just
Speaker 1: it's not real. None of this is real, like you
Speaker 1: have to really to be successful. And that's why the Kardashians,
Speaker 1: the reason the Kardashians don't get canceled is because there
Speaker 1: are so many of them, but because they have and
Speaker 1: they have failed many times. They have had credit cards
Speaker 1: and tanning and diet pills and things that have failed,
Speaker 1: businesses that have failed. You've seen them launch businesses that
Speaker 1: have failed. But they've been doing this for a really
Speaker 1: long time, and many of the things that they've have succeeded.
Speaker 1: And you have to pay your dues and have the
Speaker 1: foundation that's laid. You can't. It's not just frosting or
Speaker 1: like you know, surface. So if Kim Kardashian filters out
Speaker 1: her clavicle or ruins Marilyn Monrose dress allegedly, or loses
Speaker 1: sixteen pounds in two weeks and pisses people off, or
Speaker 1: is married to Kanye or where's Balenciaga, or a million
Speaker 1: things that she does not unlike me doing a million
Speaker 1: things that piss people off. She's got a base. They've
Speaker 1: got a foundation of work, hard work, and success. You
Speaker 1: cannot take that away from them. So that's why the
Speaker 1: house doesn't come crumbling down when they do something stupid
Speaker 1: or something's not liked. There's a strong foundation. In addition,
Speaker 1: they have power and control over their product. They produce
Speaker 1: their own show. They can never get too dirty. They
Speaker 1: own the commercial that's pushing out their own products. But
Speaker 1: that's not even the primary case. But like Megan Markle
Speaker 1: came out and because she married someone who was a
Speaker 1: prince who yes, he went away and he fought for
Speaker 1: his he fought in the military. That is very admirable. Okay,
Speaker 1: there are many people that have done that, and it's
Speaker 1: very admirable. Your whole life cannot be based on that.
Speaker 1: There's not enough foundation where if he botches the whole job,
Speaker 1: that there's enough to hold up the house. There's just
Speaker 1: not enough to hold up the house. He's not done
Speaker 1: anything on his own. He's lived as a privileged member
Speaker 1: of a royal family that yes, has causes, but it's
Speaker 1: easy to have causes when you have a billion dollar
Speaker 1: enterprise beneath you. So he left the billion dollar enterprise
Speaker 1: beneath him, and now he's on his own and the
Speaker 1: only thing he's ever done is write a book about
Speaker 1: the billion dollar enterprise. So that's not a real foundation.
Speaker 1: And Megan Markle was on a show, two shows. She
Speaker 1: was on a show with the briefcases, and then she
Speaker 1: got a fairly successful role in suit's great, making nice.
Speaker 1: I'm sure reasonable money and had a nice career. That's great.
Speaker 1: That's very nice. You married someone in the royal family,
Speaker 1: that's great. That does not mean that you are supposed
Speaker 1: to be going worldwide and accepting awards on podiums because
Speaker 1: of events and causes want your name attached so they
Speaker 1: can get pressed. So she's done wonderful things, and I'm
Speaker 1: sure she's a good person, and she's fought for causes
Speaker 1: and who gives a shit about her family relationships like
Speaker 1: as it pertains to us. But in order to go
Speaker 1: in and double and triple down on your fame and
Speaker 1: talk to Oprah and write books and sell podcasts and
Speaker 1: pitched up Bob Iger and all of that, it's drinking
Speaker 1: your own kool aid and believing your own bullshit. And
Speaker 1: the house is not strong enough to withstand possible mistruths
Speaker 1: about car chases and about never knowing who Harry was,
Speaker 1: and about stuff about her family. And it was very
Speaker 1: obvious that she went for the fame. So the thing
Speaker 1: that I say to non royal rich people is you
Speaker 1: can't really believe your own bullshit, and you've got to
Speaker 1: keep building and working and fighting to have a house
Speaker 1: that's strong enough to sustain financial peril, possible lawsuits, bad
Speaker 1: reputational hits, things that go on in your workplace, in
Speaker 1: your community. Like that's what paying your due us and
Speaker 1: laying groundworks is about. That's the difference between a Kardashian
Speaker 1: and Maggie Markle. It's not being royal and it's not
Speaker 1: a sex tape. It's that they've been fucking busting their
Speaker 1: ass for years. So that's what's different. To be really successful,
Speaker 1: you bust your ass for years. And that's why, like
Speaker 1: people who are on social media and have big followings, Okay, great,
Speaker 1: what have you done for you? What have you done
Speaker 1: for me? Leily, You've got to do that for years.
Speaker 1: You got to sustain that for years and work your
Speaker 1: fucking ass off. So whether you're famous or rich or
Speaker 1: normal and poor, build a foundation, a strong foundation so
Speaker 1: it won't crumble when something bad happens. And it's the
Speaker 1: same thing with your house, with your property and your
Speaker 1: real estate
