00:00:07,382 --> 00:00:09,926
Hi, everybody. Are you ready to do this?

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:13,000
Official YIFY movies site:
YTS.BZ

4
00:00:10,010 --> 00:00:11,761
Okay.

5
00:00:12,595 --> 00:00:18,852
Ladies, gentlemen, and everybody,
please give it up for Sheng Wang!

6
00:00:39,664 --> 00:00:42,417
What's up, DC?

7
00:00:46,296 --> 00:00:47,797
Oh, boy.

8
00:00:49,382 --> 00:00:51,634
Thank you.
Thank you so much for coming out.

9
00:00:51,718 --> 00:00:55,388
Thank you so much for having me, man.
I hope you're doing well.

10
00:00:55,472 --> 00:00:57,057
Uh, I'm feeling pretty good.

11
00:00:57,140 --> 00:00:59,476
I've been trying to eat more berries.

12
00:01:00,602 --> 00:01:03,980
I'm real passionate
about those antioxidants.

13
00:01:04,522 --> 00:01:05,398
It's weird.

14
00:01:05,482 --> 00:01:07,525
I don't even know what oxidants are.

15
00:01:07,609 --> 00:01:10,236
I just know that I'm against them.

16
00:01:12,614 --> 00:01:15,325
It seems like whenever you eat
something that's yummy,

17
00:01:15,408 --> 00:01:18,369
there's some oxidants
trying to bring you down.

18
00:01:19,454 --> 00:01:23,249
Right? So after I eat
like a steak and some martinis,

19
00:01:23,333 --> 00:01:25,085
I call on my berries.

20
00:01:26,127 --> 00:01:27,670
I send in the antioxidants.

21
00:01:27,754 --> 00:01:31,341
I'm like, "Hey, man, go handle that."

22
00:01:32,967 --> 00:01:35,053
"Make it look like an accident."

23
00:01:36,846 --> 00:01:39,390
Sometimes I eat the berries
before the dinner.

24
00:01:39,474 --> 00:01:41,643
I lay a trap.

25
00:01:43,311 --> 00:01:47,649
They don't know what's coming.
They think they about to go oxidize.

26
00:01:50,318 --> 00:01:54,781
I like berries for sure, but you know
who really love eating berries the most?

27
00:01:54,864 --> 00:01:57,325
Your friends' kids.

28
00:01:58,910 --> 00:02:01,329
Uh-oh, when your friends' kids come over,

29
00:02:01,412 --> 00:02:04,374
hide the berries
under the broccoli, quick.

30
00:02:05,500 --> 00:02:07,252
That's a hard lesson to learn, man.

31
00:02:07,335 --> 00:02:10,421
My friend came over with her kid.
I'm a good host.

32
00:02:10,505 --> 00:02:13,842
I bust out snacks,
refreshments, the berries.

33
00:02:13,925 --> 00:02:15,552
I'm happy they're happy.

34
00:02:15,635 --> 00:02:19,931
And then I realize, "Oh, this girl
don't know how much they cost at all."

35
00:02:21,057 --> 00:02:23,351
She eating them crazy.

36
00:02:24,352 --> 00:02:26,271
By the fistful.

37
00:02:27,063 --> 00:02:29,941
I never seen berries be held like that.

38
00:02:31,276 --> 00:02:32,735
That's not how you eat berries.

39
00:02:32,819 --> 00:02:36,364
That's how you display
a sacrificial human heart.

40
00:02:40,952 --> 00:02:43,204
I don't say anything
'cause it's good for them.

41
00:02:43,288 --> 00:02:46,541
But in my mind,
I'm like, "That's not reasonable."

42
00:02:48,585 --> 00:02:51,671
I'm trying to be cool, I'm trying.
But I'm bothered, you know?

43
00:02:51,754 --> 00:02:55,967
I'm so bothered, I can't follow
the conversation with the grown-ups.

44
00:02:57,177 --> 00:03:02,015
I don't know what we talking about.
I'm too busy assessing my losses.

45
00:03:03,850 --> 00:03:07,353
"Nobody see what's going on right now?
We getting robbed."

46
00:03:10,398 --> 00:03:14,360
I don't know what to do.
I-- I try to show her how to eat a berry.

47
00:03:14,444 --> 00:03:16,362
I try to model behavior.

48
00:03:16,446 --> 00:03:20,617
I'm like, "Hey, uh, take one."

49
00:03:21,659 --> 00:03:24,037
"Look at it.
Appreciate the color, the texture."

50
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,331
"Be present with the berry."

51
00:03:27,373 --> 00:03:29,042
"Chew it slowly, savor it."

52
00:03:29,125 --> 00:03:33,338
"After you eat a whole cup,
that's enough for today. All done."

53
00:03:38,384 --> 00:03:40,553
She don't know how to take a hint.

54
00:03:40,637 --> 00:03:44,432
I get so frustrated, I start to eat
the berries as fast as I can.

55
00:03:47,143 --> 00:03:49,771
Hide them in my esophagus.

56
00:03:52,565 --> 00:03:54,609
It's something you have to accept, right?

57
00:03:54,692 --> 00:04:00,406
When there's kids on the scene,
the hang will be less predictable.

58
00:04:00,990 --> 00:04:01,824
Things happen.

59
00:04:01,908 --> 00:04:04,202
The other day, I'm at my friend's house.

60
00:04:04,285 --> 00:04:07,413
It's a bunch of bros having beers
around the firepit in the backyard.

61
00:04:07,497 --> 00:04:09,082
It's a fun, silly time.

62
00:04:09,165 --> 00:04:11,668
Suddenly, my friend's kid came out.

63
00:04:11,751 --> 00:04:13,378
Pop-quizzed him.

64
00:04:14,087 --> 00:04:18,007
That's when, out of nowhere,
no context, your kid just run up on you,

65
00:04:18,091 --> 00:04:22,345
and they hit you with a question
about science in front of everybody.

66
00:04:24,013 --> 00:04:25,974
Now it's quiet.

67
00:04:27,308 --> 00:04:32,397
Now my friend is struggling
to explain how the moon works.

68
00:04:34,190 --> 00:04:36,859
I'm nervous for him.

69
00:04:36,943 --> 00:04:39,320
I know he know we listening too.

70
00:04:41,197 --> 00:04:43,616
We would like to know as well.

71
00:04:44,951 --> 00:04:48,705
"That's a good question.
Hey, why is it like that?"

72
00:04:50,748 --> 00:04:55,003
We don't know the answer,
but we actively judging his response.

73
00:04:57,463 --> 00:05:00,008
You know, 'cause when your friend
explains stuff to the kids,

74
00:05:00,091 --> 00:05:02,010
sometimes they have to dumb it down.

75
00:05:02,093 --> 00:05:06,639
But then sometimes you realize,
"Oh, no, my friend is dumb."

76
00:05:11,102 --> 00:05:14,564
Kids can clarify your situation, you know?

77
00:05:14,647 --> 00:05:17,108
Like the other day,
I took my niece to the playground.

78
00:05:17,191 --> 00:05:20,611
It's all good and fun until she started
to struggle on the monkey bars.

79
00:05:20,695 --> 00:05:23,740
So I was like,
"Well, let me show you how we do that."

80
00:05:23,823 --> 00:05:27,744
I found out I have lost
my monkey bar powers.

81
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:33,082
I didn't know that was a skill
we could lose this early.

82
00:05:34,083 --> 00:05:38,087
It's over. It breaks my heart
to know that at one point in my life,

83
00:05:38,171 --> 00:05:41,758
I did monkey bars for the very last time,

84
00:05:43,009 --> 00:05:45,928
but nobody took a picture or nothing.

85
00:05:47,847 --> 00:05:49,849
I thought I had it. I was confident.

86
00:05:49,932 --> 00:05:51,809
'Cause I could do
a few pull-ups, you know?

87
00:05:51,893 --> 00:05:58,191
But monkey bars is all your body weight
on one hand, and you swinging.

88
00:05:59,108 --> 00:06:02,111
So you pulling Gs.

89
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,823
I forgot about the g-force.

90
00:06:05,907 --> 00:06:09,035
I'm on the first bar,
I initiated forward motion,

91
00:06:09,118 --> 00:06:11,662
and as the Gs started to increase,

92
00:06:11,746 --> 00:06:14,165
I felt a pain right here.

93
00:06:15,792 --> 00:06:17,627
My rotator cuff

94
00:06:18,753 --> 00:06:21,464
was like, "You better let go, boy."

95
00:06:22,423 --> 00:06:26,052
"Ooh, I'm about to rip off your torso."

96
00:06:29,347 --> 00:06:31,516
I was hurt emotionally too.

97
00:06:32,141 --> 00:06:34,727
You know, 'cause I wanted
to show her a joyful skill

98
00:06:34,811 --> 00:06:37,939
that she could develop
with practice and experience.

99
00:06:38,022 --> 00:06:42,110
Instead, I showed her how quickly
the body can decay and betray you.

100
00:06:44,779 --> 00:06:47,407
It was also upsetting
'cause I've seen videos

101
00:06:47,490 --> 00:06:50,827
of terrorists training on monkey bars.

102
00:06:50,910 --> 00:06:52,912
I always thought that was so silly,

103
00:06:52,995 --> 00:06:55,915
but now I'm like,
"Dang, they're pretty athletic."

104
00:06:57,083 --> 00:06:59,085
"They might be a problem."

105
00:07:04,757 --> 00:07:08,886
I feel very grateful I get to perform
in beautiful theaters like this.

106
00:07:09,637 --> 00:07:12,223
It's so nice. This is so nice.

107
00:07:14,725 --> 00:07:16,644
It's not always like this.

108
00:07:16,727 --> 00:07:19,856
Uh, one of the last shows I did in LA

109
00:07:19,939 --> 00:07:23,109
was inside an adult novelty store.

110
00:07:23,609 --> 00:07:27,113
I like doing that show
'cause they have free parking.

111
00:07:28,030 --> 00:07:29,949
Yeah, that's my kink.

112
00:07:31,826 --> 00:07:34,537
I did my set.
Afterwards, I did a little browsing,

113
00:07:34,620 --> 00:07:38,499
and I came across an edible bra
made out of hard candy.

114
00:07:38,583 --> 00:07:40,042
I was intrigued, but I was like,

115
00:07:40,126 --> 00:07:44,088
"That's for young folks.
I don't eat candy like that anymore."

116
00:07:45,047 --> 00:07:46,966
I'm down to have fun. We can play.

117
00:07:47,049 --> 00:07:51,262
I'll take a nibble, but let's save
the rest for later, you know?

118
00:07:51,345 --> 00:07:55,475
Come on, don't expect me
to eat a whole bra.

119
00:07:56,726 --> 00:08:00,771
I'm not going to eat all that candy, girl.
I'mma get a headache.

120
00:08:02,231 --> 00:08:05,359
You better have some underwear
made out of Tylenol.

121
00:08:07,987 --> 00:08:11,532
You got something more suitable
for a grown-up palate?

122
00:08:12,450 --> 00:08:14,869
I mean, how about instead
of a whole bra of candy,

123
00:08:14,952 --> 00:08:18,539
how about we just go
with a couple of dark chocolate pasties?

124
00:08:19,624 --> 00:08:23,461
Bittersweet, at least 75% cacao.

125
00:08:25,588 --> 00:08:29,467
We can take it up to 85%. I'm not scared.

126
00:08:32,053 --> 00:08:34,430
I picked up the box for the bra.

127
00:08:34,514 --> 00:08:37,600
I flipped it over
to read the nutritional data.

128
00:08:39,393 --> 00:08:41,312
How much protein this bra got?

129
00:08:45,483 --> 00:08:49,612
I was surprised.
It said eight grams of sugar.

130
00:08:49,695 --> 00:08:51,906
That's not too bad.

131
00:08:51,989 --> 00:08:54,158
If you're gonna
give yourself a sweet treat,

132
00:08:54,242 --> 00:08:56,786
eight grams is quite reasonable.

133
00:08:56,869 --> 00:09:00,414
And then I looked further.
It said 26 servings.

134
00:09:02,542 --> 00:09:05,836
Dang! One bra, 26?

135
00:09:06,337 --> 00:09:09,590
Usually, it's just two of us in the room.

136
00:09:11,717 --> 00:09:15,471
Hey, this recipe is designed
for a group setting.

137
00:09:16,222 --> 00:09:19,392
That's a great bra to wear to a potluck.

138
00:09:21,018 --> 00:09:24,564
"Let me know when y'all ready for dessert.
She got them warmed up."

139
00:09:27,358 --> 00:09:29,986
I can't do 26 servings by myself, though.

140
00:09:30,069 --> 00:09:31,445
No way.

141
00:09:31,529 --> 00:09:34,657
No way. My A1C is elevated.

142
00:09:35,449 --> 00:09:37,326
Yeah, I'm already prediabetic.

143
00:09:37,410 --> 00:09:40,329
I can't lose a foot to see a titty.

144
00:09:42,957 --> 00:09:45,293
My mom would be mad.

145
00:09:46,294 --> 00:09:48,296
She made that foot.

146
00:09:53,301 --> 00:09:56,971
I actually got to see
my family recently in Houston.

147
00:09:57,054 --> 00:10:01,142
I got to revisit the house
that I grew up in.

148
00:10:01,767 --> 00:10:04,061
It's interesting to go back at this age

149
00:10:04,145 --> 00:10:08,232
'cause you notice things
you could not quite see as a child.

150
00:10:08,316 --> 00:10:11,277
Right? Like I realize now,
the house that I grew up in

151
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,988
has depressing lighting.

152
00:10:15,323 --> 00:10:17,658
It's so obvious now.

153
00:10:18,326 --> 00:10:21,621
But as a kid, I could never figure out
what was wrong.

154
00:10:22,496 --> 00:10:26,542
As a kid, I was always like,
"But why is it sad?"

155
00:10:29,795 --> 00:10:32,673
I was close to having a good childhood.

156
00:10:32,757 --> 00:10:35,593
We just needed some lamps.

157
00:10:37,178 --> 00:10:38,721
That's an easy fix,

158
00:10:38,804 --> 00:10:44,352
but first-generation immigrants
don't really prioritize vibes.

159
00:10:46,187 --> 00:10:50,483
They think ambiance is Jay-Z's wife.

160
00:10:54,111 --> 00:10:58,949
Most of the rooms have one light.
Just one light, overhead in the middle.

161
00:10:59,867 --> 00:11:02,536
Perfect for an interrogation.

162
00:11:03,621 --> 00:11:05,748
Very dramatic shadows.

163
00:11:05,831 --> 00:11:09,418
You walk in there,
suddenly your eye bags are plump.

164
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:12,713
My parents weren't unhappy.

165
00:11:12,797 --> 00:11:16,759
They just always looked
like they about to tell you a ghost story.

166
00:11:21,597 --> 00:11:23,307
My cousin had it pretty bad

167
00:11:23,391 --> 00:11:26,811
because my uncle installed
too many, uh, fluorescent lights

168
00:11:26,894 --> 00:11:28,270
in their place.

169
00:11:28,771 --> 00:11:30,856
That might be more energy efficient,

170
00:11:30,940 --> 00:11:33,859
but it's not a loving thing to do.

171
00:11:35,361 --> 00:11:37,613
It's-- It's not cozy, it's eerie.

172
00:11:37,697 --> 00:11:40,741
Fluorescent light, it's mostly sound.

173
00:11:42,743 --> 00:11:44,203
You hear it coming.

174
00:11:44,286 --> 00:11:46,497
Before you even get there,
you already know.

175
00:11:46,580 --> 00:11:49,250
"But I don't want to stay long tonight."

176
00:11:51,419 --> 00:11:54,755
It's got the buzz of a green-headed fly

177
00:11:54,839 --> 00:11:58,634
paired with the warmth
of an autopsy table.

178
00:11:59,385 --> 00:12:02,638
Set the mood for a panic attack.

179
00:12:06,517 --> 00:12:09,812
I was raised in a house
that had a no-shoe policy,

180
00:12:09,895 --> 00:12:11,981
which means that when you get home,

181
00:12:12,064 --> 00:12:14,942
you stop at the entryway,
you remove your shoes,

182
00:12:15,025 --> 00:12:16,861
and then you could proceed.

183
00:12:16,944 --> 00:12:19,530
But I have friends
that didn't live like that.

184
00:12:19,613 --> 00:12:21,657
And when I got to visit their place,

185
00:12:21,741 --> 00:12:25,578
I was excited to try something so exotic.

186
00:12:27,288 --> 00:12:28,497
I remember one summer,

187
00:12:28,581 --> 00:12:31,375
all the neighborhood kids
are gathering at Mark's place

188
00:12:31,459 --> 00:12:35,254
'cause he just got Street Fighter II
on Super Nintendo.

189
00:12:35,337 --> 00:12:36,547
-Whoo!
-Yeah.

190
00:12:36,630 --> 00:12:38,716
It was a big deal at the time.

191
00:12:38,799 --> 00:12:42,136
But I was really looking forward
to going from outside to inside,

192
00:12:42,219 --> 00:12:43,471
no stopping.

193
00:12:44,680 --> 00:12:47,057
Oh, I'm going straight through.

194
00:12:47,141 --> 00:12:52,271
I'm not gonna just hover around the foyer,
I'mma go deep into that house.

195
00:12:52,772 --> 00:12:54,815
I'mma go all the way to the living room.

196
00:12:54,899 --> 00:12:58,402
I'mma see what carpet feels like
with shoes on.

197
00:12:59,653 --> 00:13:03,407
Dang, I never walked through a home
with so much grip.

198
00:13:05,576 --> 00:13:08,621
And you got the thermostat
on the AC set below 80.

199
00:13:08,704 --> 00:13:11,332
Feel like y'all living in a hotel.

200
00:13:16,754 --> 00:13:19,256
The pinnacle is sometimes,
when you go to the bathroom,

201
00:13:19,340 --> 00:13:21,592
because sometimes
the bathroom is set up in such a way

202
00:13:21,675 --> 00:13:23,135
where you're like, "Oh, my gosh,

203
00:13:23,219 --> 00:13:28,140
am I expected to step
on the bath mat with my shoes on?"

204
00:13:28,224 --> 00:13:31,101
Ooh, that feels sacrilegious to me.

205
00:13:31,185 --> 00:13:35,105
It's the first thing your body touches
after you step out of the shower.

206
00:13:35,189 --> 00:13:37,316
I could never do that at home.

207
00:13:37,817 --> 00:13:39,693
Now I kind of want to try it.

208
00:13:40,319 --> 00:13:42,029
But if I'm a good friend, I won't.

209
00:13:42,112 --> 00:13:45,658
If I care about you like myself,
I'll straddle the bath mat.

210
00:13:45,741 --> 00:13:47,785
I'll go in there like this.

211
00:13:51,747 --> 00:13:53,374
That's love.

212
00:13:54,375 --> 00:13:57,169
You don't always see what I do for you.

213
00:13:58,712 --> 00:14:00,756
Love is not boastful.

214
00:14:06,387 --> 00:14:09,473
I try to maintain
a no-shoe policy at my place,

215
00:14:09,557 --> 00:14:11,892
but it's not 100%.

216
00:14:11,976 --> 00:14:13,352
Sometimes you have to bend.

217
00:14:13,435 --> 00:14:15,896
Every now and then you'll be in a rush,
you got your shoes on,

218
00:14:15,980 --> 00:14:19,984
you already stepped outside,
then you realize you forgot your wallet.

219
00:14:20,067 --> 00:14:23,279
But you don't have time
to do the whole thing again.

220
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:28,075
So it's about to be a special occasion.

221
00:14:29,201 --> 00:14:31,662
You're going in with your shoes on today.

222
00:14:31,745 --> 00:14:34,540
But you don't walk regularly.

223
00:14:36,083 --> 00:14:38,335
You go back in your place
like the floor is lava.

224
00:14:38,419 --> 00:14:39,461
You're like…

225
00:14:49,513 --> 00:14:51,015
It look crazy.

226
00:14:51,515 --> 00:14:54,643
But it's all backed by science.

227
00:14:55,769 --> 00:14:57,146
You know what you're doing.

228
00:14:57,229 --> 00:15:02,276
You take wide steps to minimize
the points of contamination.

229
00:15:03,110 --> 00:15:08,282
You stay on the balls of your feet
to minimize the surface area.

230
00:15:08,365 --> 00:15:12,244
And you're moving quickly
because three-second rule.

231
00:15:13,913 --> 00:15:15,372
These are the games you play

232
00:15:15,456 --> 00:15:20,127
when you an anxious person
pretending you have control in your life.

233
00:15:25,883 --> 00:15:29,136
So many things in the world
that are out of our control, you know?

234
00:15:29,219 --> 00:15:32,181
Like, every now and then when I'm on tour,
I'll be at a hotel,

235
00:15:32,264 --> 00:15:36,435
I'll catch a mattress
at the tail end of their lifespan.

236
00:15:37,019 --> 00:15:37,895
It happens.

237
00:15:37,978 --> 00:15:40,481
Usually it's a little droopy.

238
00:15:40,981 --> 00:15:45,361
The other day I had an old mattress
that was memory foam, and it looked fine.

239
00:15:45,444 --> 00:15:49,657
You couldn't see anything wrong,
but when you lay down, you felt something.

240
00:15:50,491 --> 00:15:53,661
It was the memory of somebody else.

241
00:15:55,204 --> 00:15:58,248
It was a vivid recollection.

242
00:15:59,708 --> 00:16:05,130
There was a unique emptiness
created by a body that's not present,

243
00:16:05,214 --> 00:16:09,802
but clearly defined
by the boundaries of their absence.

244
00:16:10,970 --> 00:16:15,307
And I'm all up in the contours
of a larger man.

245
00:16:16,850 --> 00:16:18,352
We had different shapes.

246
00:16:18,435 --> 00:16:20,938
I'm not the key to that lock.

247
00:16:21,981 --> 00:16:25,734
I had edges where he had curves.

248
00:16:26,235 --> 00:16:30,114
It felt like I was laying
on a tiny skate park.

249
00:16:36,578 --> 00:16:38,998
I don't know
if y'all could tell by my aura,

250
00:16:39,081 --> 00:16:41,959
but I've been cooking with shallots.

251
00:16:44,962 --> 00:16:46,255
You see it.

252
00:16:48,382 --> 00:16:50,092
There's a glow.

253
00:16:51,051 --> 00:16:52,803
They're nice. Shallots are nice, man.

254
00:16:52,886 --> 00:16:55,764
I only recently discovered them.
I was like, "What's up, onion?"

255
00:16:55,848 --> 00:16:58,642
"You didn't tell me
you had a fine-ass cousin."

256
00:16:59,810 --> 00:17:02,521
"Dang, where's she from?
She smell different."

257
00:17:03,897 --> 00:17:05,482
They're similar,

258
00:17:05,566 --> 00:17:07,776
but you don't treat them the same.

259
00:17:08,318 --> 00:17:09,778
Onions, you take for granted.

260
00:17:09,862 --> 00:17:13,866
You buy them by the sack,
then you throw them in the dark for later.

261
00:17:14,908 --> 00:17:17,286
But when you bring home one shallot,

262
00:17:17,369 --> 00:17:18,871
oh, you got plans made.

263
00:17:20,247 --> 00:17:23,917
You about to follow a recipe tonight.

264
00:17:24,710 --> 00:17:28,005
You going all out.
You gonna bust out the mandolin slicing,

265
00:17:28,088 --> 00:17:32,509
slip on that one Michael Jackson glove
so you don't shave off your fingerprints.

266
00:17:37,556 --> 00:17:40,267
I've been exploring
all kinds of aromatics, man.

267
00:17:40,350 --> 00:17:42,853
I just went through a big leek phase.

268
00:17:43,437 --> 00:17:48,650
Love leeks, but I'm regretful
because I avoided them for a long time.

269
00:17:48,734 --> 00:17:52,446
'Cause when you see your first leek,
it's intimidating.

270
00:17:53,030 --> 00:17:56,533
I was like,
"Dang, that's a buff-ass green onion."

271
00:17:58,577 --> 00:18:00,162
"What's that about?"

272
00:18:00,704 --> 00:18:04,708
I'm trying to eat organic.
That thing can't pass no drug test.

273
00:18:05,209 --> 00:18:07,753
It's too thick.

274
00:18:08,253 --> 00:18:11,006
Why'd they let it get like that?

275
00:18:11,090 --> 00:18:12,508
They forgot about it.

276
00:18:12,591 --> 00:18:15,677
They should've harvested it
like three years ago.

277
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,430
At this point, leave it alone.

278
00:18:18,514 --> 00:18:21,183
It's about to be a tree.

279
00:18:26,146 --> 00:18:29,108
I love cooking. I love cooking.
I love the whole process.

280
00:18:29,191 --> 00:18:32,194
I love the power of herbs and spices.

281
00:18:32,277 --> 00:18:34,446
It's truly magical to me, you know?

282
00:18:34,530 --> 00:18:37,741
One of my go-to spices is cumin.

283
00:18:37,825 --> 00:18:40,119
It's a good one. It's a good one.

284
00:18:40,202 --> 00:18:44,456
So many different cultures
use the same spice all around the world.

285
00:18:44,540 --> 00:18:47,459
It's got this deep, savory profile,

286
00:18:47,543 --> 00:18:50,963
a little bit of funk, just a hint of BO.

287
00:18:52,214 --> 00:18:54,591
It's a festive spice, very festive.

288
00:18:54,675 --> 00:18:56,510
Every time I smell that cumin, I'm like,

289
00:18:56,593 --> 00:18:59,429
"Oh, smell like somebody else
in this kitchen right now."

290
00:19:01,515 --> 00:19:03,517
"Hello?"

291
00:19:05,894 --> 00:19:09,314
"Smells like someone just finished
some light yard work."

292
00:19:10,315 --> 00:19:12,943
"Thank you, let me get you some water."

293
00:19:14,236 --> 00:19:17,114
"Come on in here with that sexy musk."

294
00:19:22,786 --> 00:19:26,165
Sometimes after, like,
a long streak of eating out,

295
00:19:26,248 --> 00:19:31,712
I try to redeem myself
by making a healthy smoothie at home.

296
00:19:31,795 --> 00:19:33,547
But I always overdo it,

297
00:19:33,630 --> 00:19:38,427
'cause I try to cram in everything
I wish I would've ate earlier that week.

298
00:19:39,094 --> 00:19:42,389
It'd be like so many salads,
all types of fruit,

299
00:19:42,472 --> 00:19:46,268
walnuts, mushroom powder,
flaxseeds, turmeric, black pepper.

300
00:19:46,351 --> 00:19:49,813
My smoothie come out dark gray.

301
00:19:51,690 --> 00:19:53,734
It's viscous.

302
00:19:54,526 --> 00:19:57,487
It look like wet concrete.

303
00:19:58,614 --> 00:20:00,199
It sucks,

304
00:20:00,282 --> 00:20:03,577
but it will not move through a straw.

305
00:20:04,578 --> 00:20:07,915
You gotta drink my smoothie
with a knife and fork.

306
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:11,168
It's too thick.

307
00:20:11,251 --> 00:20:14,504
You're supposed to add liquid
to get the right consistency.

308
00:20:14,588 --> 00:20:18,592
Well, great. Now I got
two gallons of smoothie.

309
00:20:19,593 --> 00:20:21,220
I gotta get my girl involved.

310
00:20:21,303 --> 00:20:25,724
I'm like, "Babe, I made you
a snack too. I'm sorry."

311
00:20:29,019 --> 00:20:32,272
I have no formal culinary training.

312
00:20:32,356 --> 00:20:35,359
A lot of just learning on the job,
improvising in the moment.

313
00:20:35,442 --> 00:20:37,110
I never make the same meal twice

314
00:20:37,194 --> 00:20:40,197
'cause I don't know
how it happened that first time.

315
00:20:41,490 --> 00:20:42,991
And if my girl likes the food,

316
00:20:43,075 --> 00:20:46,370
I'm like, "Enjoy it,
'cause that's never coming back."

317
00:20:47,621 --> 00:20:49,915
"We got blessed tonight."

318
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,712
I do most of the cooking,
but every now and then, my girl,

319
00:20:55,796 --> 00:20:59,800
she'll buy a special kitchen tool
that we don't really use,

320
00:20:59,883 --> 00:21:03,011
but it will take up some storage space.

321
00:21:04,388 --> 00:21:08,100
She came home
with a real chunky garlic press.

322
00:21:08,183 --> 00:21:10,769
Created a lot of traffic jams
in the kitchen drawer.

323
00:21:10,852 --> 00:21:13,313
You know how when you go
to open the drawer,

324
00:21:13,397 --> 00:21:16,233
your other hand gotta go in
and calm everybody down?

325
00:21:16,316 --> 00:21:17,317
Like, "Hey…"

326
00:21:22,489 --> 00:21:24,783
"Relax."

327
00:21:24,866 --> 00:21:28,287
"Hey, chill, chill. Lay down.
It's just me, lay down."

328
00:21:29,496 --> 00:21:31,790
"Why you so rowdy?"

329
00:21:32,332 --> 00:21:36,211
"You got everybody all worked up in there.
You got the tongs in a tizzy."

330
00:21:38,213 --> 00:21:39,881
And your knuckle get all scraped up,

331
00:21:39,965 --> 00:21:42,509
'cause they don't paint
the wood on that side.

332
00:21:49,433 --> 00:21:52,394
One time, my girl came home
with a spiralizer

333
00:21:52,477 --> 00:21:56,565
to make zucchini noodles
that nobody's excited about.

334
00:21:58,775 --> 00:22:00,277
It's sad, you know?

335
00:22:00,360 --> 00:22:03,822
Because when you first see it work,
you're excited.

336
00:22:03,905 --> 00:22:07,284
You're like,
"Ooh, that do look like a noodle."

337
00:22:08,410 --> 00:22:09,995
It do!

338
00:22:10,078 --> 00:22:12,080
And in your heart, you want to believe.

339
00:22:12,164 --> 00:22:14,291
You're like, "Maybe."

340
00:22:15,292 --> 00:22:17,419
"Maybe it is a noodle."

341
00:22:18,295 --> 00:22:22,632
But when you sit down to eat,
you know that's a vegetable string.

342
00:22:23,550 --> 00:22:25,302
Wake up, fool.

343
00:22:26,678 --> 00:22:31,266
I can't watch a sci-fi thriller
and eat zoodles.

344
00:22:31,933 --> 00:22:35,812
'Cause I can only suspend
so much disbelief.

345
00:22:37,147 --> 00:22:40,359
I could believe
that evil robots from the future

346
00:22:40,442 --> 00:22:42,611
time-travel here to destroy us,

347
00:22:42,694 --> 00:22:45,322
or I could pretend that's spaghetti.

348
00:22:50,952 --> 00:22:54,748
One time, my girl came home with
this interesting Japanese onion slicer.

349
00:22:54,831 --> 00:22:58,001
It's got this one handle,
on top of which there's like eight blades.

350
00:22:58,085 --> 00:22:59,753
One stroke, eight cuts.

351
00:22:59,836 --> 00:23:01,838
I never used it.

352
00:23:01,922 --> 00:23:03,757
About a year ago, I'm cleaning out.

353
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,717
I pulled it up. I forgot what it was.

354
00:23:05,801 --> 00:23:07,260
There was a cap on top.

355
00:23:07,344 --> 00:23:08,470
I misplaced my hand.

356
00:23:08,553 --> 00:23:12,808
When I opened it,
I ran my finger over all eight blades.

357
00:23:13,475 --> 00:23:17,521
And then I threw it away!

358
00:23:19,731 --> 00:23:22,818
That's the only time we ever used it.

359
00:23:24,069 --> 00:23:26,822
It sat brand-new in the drawer for years,

360
00:23:26,905 --> 00:23:28,782
just waiting to strike.

361
00:23:29,991 --> 00:23:31,868
And it got me good. I was impressed.

362
00:23:31,952 --> 00:23:35,622
It was the most evenly spaced injury
I have ever suffered.

363
00:23:36,790 --> 00:23:39,793
The doctor said my cuts
were restaurant quality.

364
00:23:45,757 --> 00:23:49,261
Currently, I'm back on the market
for a new toaster oven.

365
00:23:49,344 --> 00:23:50,887
It's that time again.

366
00:23:51,930 --> 00:23:55,267
We got a basic brand. It's not bad.
We've had it for ten years.

367
00:23:55,350 --> 00:23:59,563
It still works, but now it also works
when nobody's home.

368
00:24:01,148 --> 00:24:02,983
It's getting too good.

369
00:24:03,817 --> 00:24:06,653
So we looking at some options,
and I'm not for sure,

370
00:24:06,736 --> 00:24:10,490
but I'm at a point in my life
where, like, I might be able to afford

371
00:24:10,574 --> 00:24:12,284
a Breville toaster.

372
00:24:12,367 --> 00:24:15,203
-Whoo!
-Maybe, maybe, maybe.

373
00:24:15,287 --> 00:24:18,123
Maybe. I gotta run the numbers again.

374
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,169
It's so expensive, but it's very pretty,

375
00:24:22,252 --> 00:24:24,713
and my friends really like theirs,
so I'm excited.

376
00:24:24,796 --> 00:24:28,550
But then it did occur to me,
like if it really is that great,

377
00:24:28,633 --> 00:24:33,346
I guess there's a chance
this could be my last toaster.

378
00:24:34,264 --> 00:24:35,724
Dang, that's heavy.

379
00:24:36,683 --> 00:24:37,934
I'm not ready for all that.

380
00:24:38,018 --> 00:24:41,771
I'm just trying to make
my dino nuggets crispy.

381
00:24:43,023 --> 00:24:46,610
Now you got me contemplating my mortality.

382
00:24:47,360 --> 00:24:52,741
Now I'm wondering to whom
shall I bequeath this heirloom?

383
00:24:54,159 --> 00:24:59,539
Which niece or nephew got the charisma
to tell my story on the Antique Roadshow?

384
00:25:08,590 --> 00:25:10,592
To this day, to this day,

385
00:25:10,675 --> 00:25:13,553
I still have some frugal habits
from my childhood

386
00:25:13,637 --> 00:25:15,430
that I can't quite shake.

387
00:25:15,514 --> 00:25:19,976
Like, it's still hard for me
to use a whole paper towel.

388
00:25:21,436 --> 00:25:22,979
I want to rip it in two.

389
00:25:23,063 --> 00:25:25,023
I'll give the other half to my boo.

390
00:25:26,316 --> 00:25:28,485
Or I'll leave it on the roll,

391
00:25:28,568 --> 00:25:31,613
and then I wind it back
to make it look nice.

392
00:25:32,989 --> 00:25:35,867
If I'm at a restaurant,
they hand out a wet towelette,

393
00:25:35,951 --> 00:25:38,370
usually I don't use it right away.

394
00:25:38,453 --> 00:25:41,164
I'm like, "Hey, let me
put that in my pocket."

395
00:25:41,998 --> 00:25:44,000
"I want to save it for later."

396
00:25:44,084 --> 00:25:46,253
"It's too special for now."

397
00:25:46,753 --> 00:25:50,340
It's wet, it's individually wrapped,
so it feel like a commitment.

398
00:25:50,423 --> 00:25:53,677
When you choose to deploy it,
you got one shot.

399
00:25:54,844 --> 00:25:56,346
Make it count.

400
00:25:56,930 --> 00:25:59,724
So you just--
You just keep it on you. You ready.

401
00:25:59,808 --> 00:26:01,685
And you move through life.

402
00:26:01,768 --> 00:26:04,688
And every now and then, a situation
will come up, and you be like…

403
00:26:04,771 --> 00:26:08,108
"Is it time?"

404
00:26:09,651 --> 00:26:11,319
"Nah, not yet."

405
00:26:11,861 --> 00:26:14,197
"Not yet. This ain't that bad.
I got some napkins."

406
00:26:14,281 --> 00:26:17,659
"I got condensation on my ice water.
I'll just go like that."

407
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,539
"I'm good. I'm good.
I can't waste a whole towelette on this."

408
00:26:25,083 --> 00:26:27,043
So you wait. You continue to wait.

409
00:26:27,127 --> 00:26:29,754
And finally one day,
you find a moment that's worthy.

410
00:26:29,838 --> 00:26:31,798
You excited to get your satisfaction.

411
00:26:31,881 --> 00:26:35,468
You open the wrapper
to find all the liquid is gone.

412
00:26:36,386 --> 00:26:38,763
Now you're trying
to clean your barbecue fingers

413
00:26:38,847 --> 00:26:42,017
with what's basically a used dryer sheet.

414
00:26:50,900 --> 00:26:53,403
Technically, I'm a full-blown adult,

415
00:26:53,486 --> 00:26:57,907
but I feel like I got a little ways to go
to become a real grown-up.

416
00:26:57,991 --> 00:27:01,328
I'm trying to push myself,
you know, in small steps.

417
00:27:01,411 --> 00:27:04,581
Like sometimes,
after I watch a scary movie,

418
00:27:04,664 --> 00:27:07,542
I'll walk into a dark room
in my apartment,

419
00:27:07,626 --> 00:27:11,546
but I won't even turn on the lights.
I just try to be brave.

420
00:27:14,132 --> 00:27:16,635
That means you keep your natural pace.

421
00:27:16,718 --> 00:27:19,846
When you get in there,
don't start moving faster.

422
00:27:20,597 --> 00:27:22,265
That's your house.

423
00:27:23,099 --> 00:27:24,517
Act like it then.

424
00:27:26,895 --> 00:27:28,480
When you start to scurry,

425
00:27:28,563 --> 00:27:31,650
you let the ghosts know
they got you shook.

426
00:27:33,526 --> 00:27:36,279
Don't give 'em the satisfaction.

427
00:27:37,530 --> 00:27:39,658
Be cool. I go in there, I'm cool.

428
00:27:39,741 --> 00:27:42,202
I try to-- I handle my business,
I do what I got to do.

429
00:27:42,285 --> 00:27:43,370
I turn around.

430
00:27:43,453 --> 00:27:44,954
I start to leave.

431
00:27:46,122 --> 00:27:47,916
Real cool.

432
00:27:47,999 --> 00:27:50,919
Oh, I'm getting close.
I see the hallway light.

433
00:27:51,002 --> 00:27:52,504
The last three steps,

434
00:27:52,587 --> 00:27:53,963
I run.

435
00:27:55,590 --> 00:27:59,678
Right up to the doorframe,
and then I leap into the light.

436
00:28:00,178 --> 00:28:03,264
But when you're airborne,
don't overextend that back leg.

437
00:28:03,348 --> 00:28:07,435
That's how you get grabbed,
and dragged to your demise.

438
00:28:08,103 --> 00:28:11,856
You know better.
You gotta run, leap, tuck.

439
00:28:13,316 --> 00:28:15,819
And then you make a cowardly sound like,

440
00:28:15,902 --> 00:28:17,696
"Ā yā!"

441
00:28:22,951 --> 00:28:24,661
If you don't know, "ā yā,"

442
00:28:24,744 --> 00:28:28,081
that's Taiwanese for "yikes."

443
00:28:36,172 --> 00:28:39,050
Sometimes I try to be brave
when I take a shower.

444
00:28:39,134 --> 00:28:41,553
Like, I don't wait
for the water to get warm.

445
00:28:41,636 --> 00:28:42,762
I don't even test it.

446
00:28:42,846 --> 00:28:46,933
I just walk right up in there
like a warrior.

447
00:28:49,227 --> 00:28:52,063
Ooh, it's hard. It's hard.

448
00:28:52,147 --> 00:28:55,567
If you wanna be real crazy,
don't even turn on the water.

449
00:28:56,735 --> 00:28:58,403
Try this tonight.

450
00:28:58,486 --> 00:29:00,822
Go home, take your clothes off, get naked.

451
00:29:00,905 --> 00:29:05,118
Step inside a quiet, dry shower.

452
00:29:06,786 --> 00:29:08,413
Feel that tension.

453
00:29:09,622 --> 00:29:12,083
It's different. It's not neutral.

454
00:29:13,877 --> 00:29:16,629
Look at all the nozzles
on your showerhead.

455
00:29:17,297 --> 00:29:19,507
And then with your own hand,

456
00:29:19,591 --> 00:29:21,384
blast yourself.

457
00:29:24,679 --> 00:29:26,055
Don't flinch.

458
00:29:27,098 --> 00:29:28,391
Don't block.

459
00:29:30,685 --> 00:29:31,519
Just be brave.

460
00:29:31,603 --> 00:29:33,980
When the ghosts see you do that…

461
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:36,858
they get scared.

462
00:29:37,901 --> 00:29:40,487
The haunter becomes the haunted.

463
00:29:43,615 --> 00:29:47,786
They're like, "This dude crazy.
I can't stay here."

464
00:29:48,745 --> 00:29:50,079
And they leave.

465
00:29:50,789 --> 00:29:53,291
And when you feel
that spirit start to dissipate,

466
00:29:53,374 --> 00:29:55,668
you go, "Boo."

467
00:30:03,551 --> 00:30:07,305
Trying to celebrate
the small wins in my life, man.

468
00:30:07,388 --> 00:30:08,848
I recently hit a new milestone.

469
00:30:08,932 --> 00:30:12,727
I just started buying
my toothbrushes in bulk.

470
00:30:14,145 --> 00:30:15,438
That's new to me, man.

471
00:30:15,522 --> 00:30:19,025
Most of my life,
I lived toothbrush to toothbrush.

472
00:30:19,567 --> 00:30:20,401
No backup.

473
00:30:20,485 --> 00:30:23,279
I'm out there just buying loosies.

474
00:30:25,657 --> 00:30:27,033
I had one,

475
00:30:27,116 --> 00:30:31,955
and I would use that one
until no two bristles were parallel.

476
00:30:33,206 --> 00:30:35,834
And then I would continue to use that one

477
00:30:35,917 --> 00:30:39,003
because I would convince myself
it's probably more effective

478
00:30:39,087 --> 00:30:42,298
now that I made it all woolly like that.

479
00:30:43,424 --> 00:30:44,968
They're getting stronger.

480
00:30:45,844 --> 00:30:48,471
Soon I'll promote it to kitchen duty.

481
00:30:52,684 --> 00:30:55,019
It's a sense of security.

482
00:30:55,103 --> 00:30:58,189
It feels good to know
that when I go home tonight,

483
00:30:58,273 --> 00:31:00,608
if I want a fresh one, I got it.

484
00:31:01,359 --> 00:31:04,028
I got it. If you come over, I got you.
No problem.

485
00:31:04,112 --> 00:31:06,197
You could bring up to four friends.

486
00:31:08,908 --> 00:31:13,705
And the best part about the multipack,
you get to pick a color.

487
00:31:14,414 --> 00:31:15,540
That's an opportunity.

488
00:31:15,623 --> 00:31:18,126
Take your time, be intentional,
check in with yourself.

489
00:31:18,209 --> 00:31:21,796
What color brings the energy
that you need right now?

490
00:31:22,797 --> 00:31:24,716
The blue one. Oh, that's soothing.

491
00:31:24,799 --> 00:31:27,010
That's an ocean of serenity.

492
00:31:27,802 --> 00:31:32,015
The red one. Oh, yeah, that's fun,
but it's a little bit spicy.

493
00:31:33,182 --> 00:31:34,976
The purple one is powerful.

494
00:31:35,059 --> 00:31:40,857
I only pick the purple one
when I want to change the narrative.

495
00:31:42,233 --> 00:31:44,360
Sometimes you not living your best life.

496
00:31:44,444 --> 00:31:47,238
You might've made a series
of self-destructive decisions.

497
00:31:47,322 --> 00:31:52,076
Now you need to adjust your behavior
according to your core values.

498
00:31:53,119 --> 00:31:55,413
Well, come on then, purple toothbrush.

499
00:31:56,414 --> 00:31:57,999
Let's ride.

500
00:31:58,791 --> 00:32:03,004
We got plaque and demons to vanquish.

501
00:32:07,216 --> 00:32:09,260
I want to be a better person, obviously.

502
00:32:09,344 --> 00:32:12,472
You know, I'm trying.
I have the desire to learn.

503
00:32:12,555 --> 00:32:16,267
I just don't always have
the follow-through.

504
00:32:16,351 --> 00:32:20,313
That's why I got so many tabs open
on my computer.

505
00:32:21,898 --> 00:32:26,861
There's so many resources on the Internet
I feel like I could benefit from, yeah.

506
00:32:27,654 --> 00:32:31,074
Yeah, but like, not today.

507
00:32:32,408 --> 00:32:34,077
Later.

508
00:32:35,370 --> 00:32:37,497
Hey, but send me that link, though.

509
00:32:41,459 --> 00:32:44,879
I want that link.
I'll open up a tab. I got a system.

510
00:32:45,630 --> 00:32:49,425
The more tabs you collect,
the smaller they get.

511
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:51,886
It starts out like that.

512
00:32:51,970 --> 00:32:56,224
Then it becomes,
"Uh-oh, no more information."

513
00:32:57,266 --> 00:33:00,770
You don't know what this represents,
but there's a whole bunch of them.

514
00:33:02,146 --> 00:33:03,731
And there's shame there, right?

515
00:33:03,815 --> 00:33:06,442
'Cause if you have a work meeting,
you got to share your screen.

516
00:33:06,526 --> 00:33:08,528
You don't share that screen.

517
00:33:09,237 --> 00:33:11,155
Uh-uh. You open up a new window.

518
00:33:11,239 --> 00:33:13,825
You act like, "Everything's okay, boss."

519
00:33:15,243 --> 00:33:18,162
"I'm good. I'm here for the shareholders."

520
00:33:21,791 --> 00:33:24,168
Every few months,
your browser wants to update.

521
00:33:24,252 --> 00:33:27,255
You're like, "Hold up.
What about my collection?"

522
00:33:29,090 --> 00:33:31,175
Your browser's like,
"Don't trip. We got you."

523
00:33:31,259 --> 00:33:35,138
"We're going to reopen all the tabs."

524
00:33:35,221 --> 00:33:36,305
"It's a lot, though."

525
00:33:36,389 --> 00:33:38,683
"You should be using bookmarks."

526
00:33:40,768 --> 00:33:44,313
Every few years,
your computer will crash completely.

527
00:33:44,397 --> 00:33:47,692
All the tabs disappear forever.

528
00:33:47,775 --> 00:33:51,529
The sense of loss devastates you.

529
00:33:52,030 --> 00:33:54,782
But then you're like, "Finally, I'm free."

530
00:33:56,451 --> 00:33:59,704
"Thank you for doing
what I could not do for myself."

531
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,171
Yeah, I just don't know
about all this technology.

532
00:34:08,254 --> 00:34:10,590
I'm not sure
it's really making our lives better.

533
00:34:10,673 --> 00:34:14,677
I know it's making
some parts of life weird.

534
00:34:15,303 --> 00:34:17,847
You know?
Like I recently lost my headphones.

535
00:34:17,930 --> 00:34:20,475
I left them somewhere
outside of Atlantic City.

536
00:34:20,558 --> 00:34:22,268
I'm not going to get them back.

537
00:34:22,351 --> 00:34:24,979
But with the power of tech,

538
00:34:25,063 --> 00:34:26,981
I can still check in on them.

539
00:34:28,983 --> 00:34:32,695
If I want to, I can see
where they are right now.

540
00:34:33,738 --> 00:34:35,573
That's not healthy.

541
00:34:36,574 --> 00:34:39,452
I know where they live.
I know where they work.

542
00:34:39,535 --> 00:34:42,872
I know they be getting charged
on the regular.

543
00:34:43,790 --> 00:34:45,500
They moved on.

544
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:47,794
They doing their thing. I'm messed up.

545
00:34:47,877 --> 00:34:50,630
There's an option
to forget this device, but…

546
00:34:51,172 --> 00:34:53,299
I don't want to forget!

547
00:34:54,759 --> 00:34:58,387
I don't want to let go.
I already lost you once, girl.

548
00:34:59,555 --> 00:35:02,683
I can't believe
you just going to pair up with anybody.

549
00:35:08,314 --> 00:35:12,443
I try not to get caught up with things,
with consumerism, material stuff.

550
00:35:12,527 --> 00:35:15,113
But I also try to take care
of what I do have.

551
00:35:15,196 --> 00:35:16,697
Like I bought these glasses.

552
00:35:16,781 --> 00:35:20,118
So, you know, I put on contacts
if I have to do something physical,

553
00:35:20,201 --> 00:35:23,996
like when I go to play basketball,
or if I go to a strip club.

554
00:35:26,958 --> 00:35:29,627
You know? 'Cause if you wear glasses
to a strip club,

555
00:35:29,710 --> 00:35:32,839
and if you sit near the stage,
there's a pretty good chance

556
00:35:32,922 --> 00:35:35,842
the dancer's going to take
your glasses off your face.

557
00:35:35,925 --> 00:35:38,344
It's happened to me more than twice.

558
00:35:41,055 --> 00:35:44,475
And if you want to play
the sexy librarian, go for it.

559
00:35:44,559 --> 00:35:45,852
I will support you,

560
00:35:45,935 --> 00:35:49,021
but bring your own props.

561
00:35:50,398 --> 00:35:51,649
This is not a toy.

562
00:35:51,732 --> 00:35:54,735
This is a medical device.

563
00:35:55,319 --> 00:35:58,072
Normally, I only let
the opticians handle them.

564
00:35:58,156 --> 00:36:02,243
But since you're not wearing clothes,
I'm going to let it slide tonight.

565
00:36:05,496 --> 00:36:09,292
They take your glasses, they put them on,
they wear it low on the nose,

566
00:36:09,375 --> 00:36:11,711
and they shoot you these sultry looks.

567
00:36:12,712 --> 00:36:14,297
It's supposed to be a sexy moment,

568
00:36:14,380 --> 00:36:17,133
but it's not,
'cause I'm squinting back at her.

569
00:36:23,639 --> 00:36:25,933
"I think she got four nipples."

570
00:36:31,063 --> 00:36:33,691
And then she changes tactics.
She takes the glasses off,

571
00:36:33,774 --> 00:36:38,196
and she gives the glasses
a close-up tour of her body.

572
00:36:38,279 --> 00:36:42,700
I'm like, "Wow, that looks
like a lot of fun for the glasses."

573
00:36:44,410 --> 00:36:47,205
But I can't see what the glasses see.

574
00:36:47,705 --> 00:36:51,792
It's not Bluetooth-connected
to my occipital lobe.

575
00:36:57,089 --> 00:36:59,008
Finally, I get them back.
I get my glasses back.

576
00:36:59,091 --> 00:37:02,136
And of course,
my lenses are all smudged up.

577
00:37:02,637 --> 00:37:05,306
I got booby prints on my lenses.

578
00:37:05,890 --> 00:37:10,603
It's a personal touch,
but I don't get turned on from forensics.

579
00:37:11,604 --> 00:37:13,314
I didn't bring my lens cloth.

580
00:37:13,397 --> 00:37:17,485
Now I got to watch
the whole show in low-res.

581
00:37:24,283 --> 00:37:26,494
I had to take a break from touring.

582
00:37:26,577 --> 00:37:30,665
I had to go back home to LA
to do a little jury duty.

583
00:37:31,165 --> 00:37:33,334
Yeah, I wasn't trying to get selected.

584
00:37:33,417 --> 00:37:37,338
But I got drafted in the first round.
Number one pick, baby.

585
00:37:38,172 --> 00:37:41,008
I was all proud of myself,
and then I was worried.

586
00:37:41,092 --> 00:37:45,221
I was like, "If I'm the first pick,
this team's not gonna make the playoff."

587
00:37:47,098 --> 00:37:49,934
We did the whole selection process.
It was a done deal.

588
00:37:50,017 --> 00:37:53,062
Last minute, juror three raises his hand.
He's trying to get out.

589
00:37:53,145 --> 00:37:55,648
He said, "Your Honor,
I've been applying for jobs."

590
00:37:55,731 --> 00:37:58,067
"I might have an interview next week."

591
00:37:58,150 --> 00:38:00,278
The judge, she took one look at him,

592
00:38:00,361 --> 00:38:04,115
and then she decided
he was going to remain on the jury.

593
00:38:04,699 --> 00:38:06,701
'Cause a judge gonna judge.

594
00:38:07,326 --> 00:38:08,703
And based on what she saw,

595
00:38:08,786 --> 00:38:11,163
she was like,
"You not going to get no job."

596
00:38:12,707 --> 00:38:15,334
She deemed him unemployable.

597
00:38:15,835 --> 00:38:18,629
And then she made him my coworker.

598
00:38:20,423 --> 00:38:22,591
So it made me
question the system, you know?

599
00:38:22,675 --> 00:38:25,177
'Cause on paper,
jury duty is a noble idea,

600
00:38:25,261 --> 00:38:28,514
but in reality, it feels so casual, right?

601
00:38:28,597 --> 00:38:32,727
The government's just like,
"Well… are you free?"

602
00:38:35,021 --> 00:38:37,273
"Come downtown. We have a situation

603
00:38:37,356 --> 00:38:40,985
in a field in which you have
no background experience,

604
00:38:41,610 --> 00:38:44,030
you have no insight or interest,

605
00:38:44,113 --> 00:38:46,490
but we're going to have
two very biased parties

606
00:38:46,574 --> 00:38:51,454
present completely opposite arguments
to prove that they are right."

607
00:38:51,537 --> 00:38:54,540
"And then you tell us
the truth, for real."

608
00:38:56,834 --> 00:38:58,210
"You got this."

609
00:39:03,090 --> 00:39:04,550
It's a…

610
00:39:05,801 --> 00:39:07,970
It's a lot of pressure, you know?

611
00:39:08,054 --> 00:39:09,513
Court is kind of sacred,

612
00:39:09,597 --> 00:39:12,808
potentially where you can right
the wrongs of the past.

613
00:39:12,892 --> 00:39:16,145
And people are dressed for that.
The judge is wearing a robe.

614
00:39:16,228 --> 00:39:18,189
The lawyers are wearing tailored suits.

615
00:39:18,272 --> 00:39:19,899
It's a pretty formal affair,

616
00:39:19,982 --> 00:39:21,901
except for the jury.

617
00:39:23,194 --> 00:39:27,865
The jury, we look like we have
nothing invested in the outcome.

618
00:39:28,824 --> 00:39:31,285
We're dressed
like we've been inconvenienced

619
00:39:31,369 --> 00:39:35,581
and we would like the court to know
this was not an ideal time.

620
00:39:41,045 --> 00:39:43,631
We did not do a good job.

621
00:39:44,548 --> 00:39:46,634
It was three weeks of trial,

622
00:39:46,717 --> 00:39:49,553
and yet nobody took notes.

623
00:39:50,679 --> 00:39:54,016
No notes. Everybody's like,
"I'll probably remember that."

624
00:39:56,727 --> 00:39:59,688
By the time it came to deliberation,
we had nothing.

625
00:39:59,772 --> 00:40:01,941
We just going off energy.

626
00:40:03,275 --> 00:40:05,861
We're like, "I don't know, uh…"

627
00:40:07,738 --> 00:40:09,281
"Guilty?"

628
00:40:11,951 --> 00:40:13,702
It sounds terrible, but relax.

629
00:40:13,786 --> 00:40:15,413
No one's life was on the line.

630
00:40:15,496 --> 00:40:16,872
It was a civil case.

631
00:40:16,956 --> 00:40:20,459
It was a US corporation suing
a Canadian corporation.

632
00:40:20,543 --> 00:40:22,628
So we just went with home team.

633
00:40:24,588 --> 00:40:27,216
Just give the fans what they want.
Let's go.

634
00:40:28,884 --> 00:40:30,636
It was a very short discussion.

635
00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:32,763
We got together at 9:00 a.m.

636
00:40:32,847 --> 00:40:35,015
By 9:10, we were done.

637
00:40:36,434 --> 00:40:39,979
The thing is, during the trial,
you on your own for lunch,

638
00:40:40,062 --> 00:40:42,565
but we found out during deliberation,

639
00:40:43,149 --> 00:40:46,527
if you work till noon,
lunch is on the court.

640
00:40:47,069 --> 00:40:49,738
So as a jury, we all agreed unanimously.

641
00:40:49,822 --> 00:40:51,365
We're like, "Hey,

642
00:40:51,449 --> 00:40:53,534
don't turn in the answer yet."

643
00:40:54,743 --> 00:40:59,457
"Chill, chill. We'll deliver justice
when they deliver turkey sandwiches."

644
00:41:00,458 --> 00:41:02,501
Quid pro sando.

645
00:41:03,919 --> 00:41:08,132
We withheld the verdict
for three extra hours

646
00:41:08,215 --> 00:41:10,426
for some free food.

647
00:41:10,509 --> 00:41:14,972
And the sandwiches were mediocre.

648
00:41:15,681 --> 00:41:17,558
Ew. Not worth the wait.

649
00:41:17,641 --> 00:41:20,478
Not even worth the calories.

650
00:41:20,561 --> 00:41:26,734
As a jury, we demonstrated
poor judgment till the very end.

651
00:41:27,234 --> 00:41:28,861
We got what we deserved.

652
00:41:28,944 --> 00:41:30,946
The system works, y'all.

653
00:41:38,913 --> 00:41:43,292
As I get older, I-- I find myself
pivoting to nature, man.

654
00:41:43,375 --> 00:41:46,754
That's kind of where I go
to get my peace and my joy these days.

655
00:41:46,837 --> 00:41:50,883
Even the partying that I'm doing,
it's getting very outdoorsy.

656
00:41:50,966 --> 00:41:53,677
You know, I went
to two bachelor parties like this.

657
00:41:53,761 --> 00:41:57,848
The first party was for my friend Louis.
We went to Costa Rica.

658
00:41:58,474 --> 00:41:59,934
It's very tropical.

659
00:42:00,017 --> 00:42:01,894
Lot of water activities.

660
00:42:01,977 --> 00:42:04,313
We were wet often.

661
00:42:05,231 --> 00:42:09,485
Fifteen dudes in their forties

662
00:42:09,568 --> 00:42:12,988
wearing ill-fitting board shorts.

663
00:42:14,823 --> 00:42:17,910
I saw all my homies' butt cracks.

664
00:42:20,037 --> 00:42:22,289
That's not my choice.

665
00:42:23,332 --> 00:42:27,795
You know, when you suspect
there's butt crack in your periphery,

666
00:42:28,629 --> 00:42:33,300
it's almost impossible
to just move forward with your life.

667
00:42:33,968 --> 00:42:36,762
You're compelled to confirm.
You're like, "Hold up one second."

668
00:42:41,350 --> 00:42:43,352
"I didn't want to do that."

669
00:42:45,688 --> 00:42:48,023
'Cause butt crack is magnetic.

670
00:42:49,483 --> 00:42:52,736
Butt crack acts like a pseudo-cleavage.

671
00:42:54,071 --> 00:42:59,034
It calls for attention
through the power of mimicry.

672
00:43:00,411 --> 00:43:03,831
Your eyes are naturally drawn
to that burgeoning shadow.

673
00:43:03,914 --> 00:43:07,418
"What's this mystery
that my mind would like to solve?"

674
00:43:09,336 --> 00:43:11,630
That's not your choice. That's instincts.

675
00:43:11,714 --> 00:43:13,841
That's dopamine or something.

676
00:43:14,592 --> 00:43:16,260
It's very powerful.

677
00:43:16,343 --> 00:43:21,390
It's the same principle they use
when they design a botanical garden.

678
00:43:21,890 --> 00:43:25,311
They always make the path windy

679
00:43:25,394 --> 00:43:26,854
to keep you curious.

680
00:43:26,937 --> 00:43:29,940
"But what's beyond that curve?"

681
00:43:31,150 --> 00:43:33,193
"Oh, I kind of want to know."

682
00:43:33,944 --> 00:43:35,863
Sometimes you follow the bend,

683
00:43:35,946 --> 00:43:39,992
and it leads you down
to a beautiful patch of begonias.

684
00:43:40,075 --> 00:43:42,786
Other times, it's your boy's booty.

685
00:43:44,496 --> 00:43:47,708
"Oh! I'm not supposed
to be in that garden."

686
00:43:48,542 --> 00:43:51,295
"That's a staff-only area."

687
00:43:57,926 --> 00:44:02,306
The other bachelor party I went to
was actually a backpacking trip.

688
00:44:02,389 --> 00:44:05,059
Uh, not like hostels, but into the wild.

689
00:44:05,142 --> 00:44:07,728
Anybody ever done
some backpacking like that?

690
00:44:09,271 --> 00:44:12,858
A small handful.
Yeah, that-- that's the right amount.

691
00:44:13,692 --> 00:44:15,653
That is the correct amount

692
00:44:15,736 --> 00:44:18,322
'cause we don't have to live
like that anymore.

693
00:44:21,116 --> 00:44:23,327
It's a crazy choice.

694
00:44:24,870 --> 00:44:26,038
You know, it's intense.

695
00:44:26,121 --> 00:44:29,291
It's not the same as camping.
I've done a lot of camping, that's chill.

696
00:44:29,375 --> 00:44:32,795
Camping, you just drive to the campsite.

697
00:44:33,545 --> 00:44:34,713
You camp.

698
00:44:35,422 --> 00:44:40,302
Backpacking, you drive
to what is not the campsite.

699
00:44:41,095 --> 00:44:43,555
You pull over on a highway,
you unload everything,

700
00:44:43,639 --> 00:44:46,141
you put it on your back,
you say, "Thank you, car."

701
00:44:46,225 --> 00:44:47,976
"I'mma take it from here."

702
00:44:49,770 --> 00:44:54,024
"For the next 26 miles,
I'mma pretend I'm a car."

703
00:44:55,776 --> 00:44:58,487
"I'm off-road. I'm a Subaru."

704
00:45:04,993 --> 00:45:08,622
I've never even worn
one of those packs, you know?

705
00:45:08,706 --> 00:45:11,792
I've never owned one.
I'd never worn one. They're so big.

706
00:45:11,875 --> 00:45:13,794
Even as a kid,
I never liked how they look.

707
00:45:13,877 --> 00:45:18,465
I always felt like the ratio was off.
It's too much bag to human.

708
00:45:19,258 --> 00:45:21,260
Like, I'm a basic JanSport kind of kid.

709
00:45:21,343 --> 00:45:25,139
You know, like for me,
a backpack should go from here to here.

710
00:45:25,806 --> 00:45:30,227
I don't like how those packs get so big
they start to come up

711
00:45:30,310 --> 00:45:31,895
over your head.

712
00:45:32,730 --> 00:45:34,648
I'm like, "Hey!"

713
00:45:35,899 --> 00:45:38,652
"Hey, what you doing?
You a backpack, right?"

714
00:45:39,361 --> 00:45:41,864
"Well, get back."

715
00:45:47,035 --> 00:45:50,497
My friend planned this trip
for a bachelor party.

716
00:45:50,581 --> 00:45:54,001
That's not traditional.
And I knew he was a spiritual guy.

717
00:45:54,084 --> 00:45:56,170
So when he told me
he wanted to do something different,

718
00:45:56,253 --> 00:45:59,590
I was like, "Okay, cool.
So no heavy drinking, no strippers."

719
00:45:59,673 --> 00:46:03,010
He's like, "Yeah,
but also no shelter, no electricity."

720
00:46:06,013 --> 00:46:07,765
That's like saying, "Hey, let's party!"

721
00:46:07,848 --> 00:46:11,143
"But let's also abstain
from fun and comfort."

722
00:46:14,396 --> 00:46:16,648
Nobody else came.

723
00:46:17,566 --> 00:46:20,736
The bachelor party was me and him.

724
00:46:22,362 --> 00:46:25,157
Two dudes alone in the wild for four days,

725
00:46:25,240 --> 00:46:28,786
giving each other
nightly full-body tick checks.

726
00:46:30,454 --> 00:46:31,580
Uh-oh.

727
00:46:31,663 --> 00:46:33,999
It got romantic by accident.

728
00:46:36,293 --> 00:46:37,878
But the question is,

729
00:46:37,961 --> 00:46:42,216
would more boys make the party less gay?

730
00:46:45,052 --> 00:46:48,680
I don't know. I don't think we have
the math to solve that equation.

731
00:46:56,188 --> 00:47:00,567
We did this trail, uh,
off the coast of Northern California,

732
00:47:00,651 --> 00:47:02,611
and it was beautiful.

733
00:47:02,694 --> 00:47:04,738
You know, multiple times on the journey,

734
00:47:04,822 --> 00:47:08,617
I found myself on a bluff
overlooking the ocean,

735
00:47:08,700 --> 00:47:10,285
overwhelmed by the beauty.

736
00:47:10,369 --> 00:47:14,790
And I would say to my friend,
"Thank you for planning everything."

737
00:47:14,873 --> 00:47:17,084
"This feels like
a once-in-a-lifetime thing,

738
00:47:17,167 --> 00:47:19,586
'cause I'll probably never do it again."

739
00:47:21,421 --> 00:47:25,425
He'd be like, "Grateful you could be here,
otherwise I'd be by myself."

740
00:47:26,051 --> 00:47:28,220
And the two of us would
just stand there quietly,

741
00:47:28,303 --> 00:47:31,932
trying to take in all the majesty.

742
00:47:32,558 --> 00:47:36,061
And then I would think to myself,
"I could kill this guy right now."

743
00:47:39,147 --> 00:47:40,607
"I don't want to."

744
00:47:41,233 --> 00:47:45,612
"But if I did, this is the best time."

745
00:47:47,614 --> 00:47:51,577
I don't want to hurt anybody,
but I love opportunity.

746
00:47:55,998 --> 00:47:58,709
Something about being in nature,
it makes you feel so calm,

747
00:47:58,792 --> 00:48:00,711
so connected with the universe.

748
00:48:00,794 --> 00:48:04,089
It makes you ponder
these profound questions, like…

749
00:48:04,172 --> 00:48:06,174
"Am I a murderer?"

750
00:48:13,098 --> 00:48:15,559
Four days in the wild was enough

751
00:48:15,642 --> 00:48:19,688
to really shift my perspective,
really change my outlook.

752
00:48:19,771 --> 00:48:21,982
When I came back to regular life,

753
00:48:22,065 --> 00:48:26,069
I could not believe how good we have it.

754
00:48:26,153 --> 00:48:28,155
The basics.

755
00:48:28,238 --> 00:48:29,948
A trash can.

756
00:48:30,824 --> 00:48:32,951
Go four days, no trash can,

757
00:48:33,035 --> 00:48:35,913
then you realize
that's a magical receptacle.

758
00:48:36,705 --> 00:48:39,708
You put whatever you want in there,
whatever you want.

759
00:48:39,791 --> 00:48:42,711
That's no longer your responsibility.

760
00:48:43,378 --> 00:48:46,173
Nah, that's society's problem.

761
00:48:46,757 --> 00:48:48,508
You ain't got to worry about that.

762
00:48:48,592 --> 00:48:50,719
Your granddaughter will figure it out.

763
00:48:54,681 --> 00:48:55,933
I felt like a toddler.

764
00:48:56,016 --> 00:48:59,061
I could not wait
to go poo-poo in the toilet.

765
00:49:00,687 --> 00:49:03,565
What a treat, the toilet.

766
00:49:03,649 --> 00:49:07,444
We were out there for four days
just digging holes.

767
00:49:08,528 --> 00:49:10,113
Real quick pro tip.

768
00:49:10,197 --> 00:49:12,282
If you ever go backpacking,

769
00:49:12,866 --> 00:49:16,078
dig your hole the night before.

770
00:49:18,747 --> 00:49:20,290
Have a little foresight.

771
00:49:21,083 --> 00:49:22,167
Do it after dinner,

772
00:49:22,250 --> 00:49:25,128
after y'all already put one
in the chamber.

773
00:49:27,798 --> 00:49:31,802
You don't want to dig a hole
in the moment.

774
00:49:33,512 --> 00:49:38,183
You don't want to dig a hole under duress.

775
00:49:40,978 --> 00:49:43,021
It ain't going to be nice.

776
00:49:43,647 --> 00:49:46,817
I woke up on day two, bit of an emergency.

777
00:49:47,317 --> 00:49:48,819
I had to go. I grabbed a shovel.

778
00:49:48,902 --> 00:49:50,821
I ran out there.
I couldn't think straight.

779
00:49:50,904 --> 00:49:52,030
I made some wrong turns.

780
00:49:52,114 --> 00:49:55,951
I ended up on a big patch
of hard-baked earth.

781
00:49:57,285 --> 00:49:59,621
I couldn't break ground.

782
00:50:00,956 --> 00:50:02,082
I was getting desperate.

783
00:50:02,165 --> 00:50:06,712
I was like, "I might have to take care
of business and then bury the body later."

784
00:50:07,713 --> 00:50:08,755
Kind of makes sense.

785
00:50:08,839 --> 00:50:12,259
Now you know how big that body is.

786
00:50:13,468 --> 00:50:15,887
When you digging ahead of time,
you got to guesstimate.

787
00:50:15,971 --> 00:50:20,017
You got to ask yourself,
"Are your eyes bigger than your butt?"

788
00:50:26,106 --> 00:50:28,358
My first hole,

789
00:50:28,442 --> 00:50:30,360
not enough hole.

790
00:50:32,654 --> 00:50:34,448
I tried to bury it at the end.

791
00:50:34,531 --> 00:50:36,366
It became a little hill.

792
00:50:38,452 --> 00:50:39,828
They say "leave no trace."

793
00:50:39,911 --> 00:50:42,164
I altered the topography.

794
00:50:43,582 --> 00:50:46,334
Now they got to update that squiggly map.

795
00:50:54,176 --> 00:50:57,846
It was a very memorable trip.
We saw a lot of beautiful wildlife.

796
00:50:57,929 --> 00:51:02,893
One of the most spectacular things
we witnessed was a full-grown black bear.

797
00:51:03,602 --> 00:51:04,895
When we came up on it,

798
00:51:04,978 --> 00:51:08,356
it was bounding straight up
a real steep incline.

799
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:11,943
And when I saw that power
combined with that speed,

800
00:51:12,527 --> 00:51:14,029
it crushed me.

801
00:51:14,529 --> 00:51:15,739
'Cause I had a plan.

802
00:51:15,822 --> 00:51:18,825
I told myself, if I had to outrun a bear,

803
00:51:18,909 --> 00:51:21,745
I'mma fake left, then I'mma go right.

804
00:51:23,288 --> 00:51:27,501
Then I saw the bear go uphill hella fast.
I said, "That's not realistic, though."

805
00:51:29,419 --> 00:51:32,422
I'mma fake left
and then I'mma be dead for real.

806
00:51:34,591 --> 00:51:36,635
If I got attacked by a bear,

807
00:51:36,718 --> 00:51:39,554
I'mma have to just be present.

808
00:51:40,263 --> 00:51:44,101
Right? You got to learn to accept
the things you cannot change.

809
00:51:44,184 --> 00:51:46,061
Breathe in, breathe out.

810
00:51:46,144 --> 00:51:50,148
"What's happening right now?
Man, I'm delicious."

811
00:51:51,149 --> 00:51:55,112
"I'm getting mauled up.
I'm too yummy to be in the forest."

812
00:51:56,321 --> 00:51:58,490
"Oh, I see you struggling
with the thigh meat."

813
00:51:58,573 --> 00:52:01,827
"Yeah, my quads are tight
from the hike, bear."

814
00:52:02,702 --> 00:52:05,539
"Sorry. You should have caught me
last week at the crib."

815
00:52:05,622 --> 00:52:07,541
"I was tender then."

816
00:52:12,003 --> 00:52:14,923
On day one, we hiked eight miles.

817
00:52:16,007 --> 00:52:18,218
We're pretty deep into bear country.

818
00:52:18,301 --> 00:52:19,970
There's no more cell reception.

819
00:52:20,053 --> 00:52:23,306
By nightfall, it's so dark
you can't see your own hand.

820
00:52:23,390 --> 00:52:26,268
And I remember we crawled into the tent

821
00:52:27,185 --> 00:52:30,981
and I zipped it up. I said, "Zip."

822
00:52:34,234 --> 00:52:36,570
"I guess that means we're safe now."

823
00:52:40,490 --> 00:52:44,119
"Is it okay if we both just go unconscious
for eight hours?"

824
00:52:47,372 --> 00:52:49,082
"'Cause we're inside."

825
00:52:50,417 --> 00:52:54,713
"This is inside now.
I went like that all the way to the top."

826
00:52:55,297 --> 00:52:58,758
"Basically transformed the windbreaker
into a force field."

827
00:53:00,802 --> 00:53:04,055
"If we can't see them,
how are they gonna know we in here?"

828
00:53:06,099 --> 00:53:08,310
"All right now, bears, go to bed."

829
00:53:08,393 --> 00:53:11,396
"You heard the zipper.
It's bedtime, good night."

830
00:53:15,192 --> 00:53:16,610
I felt more in danger

831
00:53:16,693 --> 00:53:19,946
'cause my sleeping bag
was right by the door.

832
00:53:20,447 --> 00:53:21,448
But then I was like,

833
00:53:21,531 --> 00:53:25,327
"The bear's probably not gonna use
the proper entryway."

834
00:53:26,995 --> 00:53:29,956
"It's gonna bust in here
like the Kool-Aid Man."

835
00:53:31,791 --> 00:53:36,171
It would be more unnerving
if the bear did use the zipper.

836
00:53:50,769 --> 00:53:51,853
That part's so scary.

837
00:53:51,937 --> 00:53:54,898
Every time I do that,
I give myself goose bumps.

838
00:53:57,275 --> 00:53:58,443
We, uh…

839
00:54:01,780 --> 00:54:04,449
Thank you. We have a--
We have a little bit of show left,

840
00:54:04,532 --> 00:54:07,911
but I wanna take a quick moment
to say thank you for being here.

841
00:54:07,994 --> 00:54:09,788
Thank you for coming out.

842
00:54:16,127 --> 00:54:17,170
Um…

843
00:54:19,714 --> 00:54:20,882
I, uh…

844
00:54:22,092 --> 00:54:25,095
Yeah, man. Thank you guys for being here.
I take none of this for granted.

845
00:54:25,178 --> 00:54:27,681
Like, I've been doing
stand-up comedy for 23 years,

846
00:54:27,764 --> 00:54:31,476
and this is my first major tour,
and we doing sold-out theaters.

847
00:54:33,853 --> 00:54:35,480
That's crazy.

848
00:54:37,524 --> 00:54:39,025
It's a real dream, you know?

849
00:54:39,109 --> 00:54:42,070
But to be honest, you know,
my goal from the very beginning,

850
00:54:42,153 --> 00:54:43,780
I just wanted to work on the craft.

851
00:54:43,863 --> 00:54:47,909
I wanted to get better and get better
and maybe eventually find my people.

852
00:54:47,993 --> 00:54:50,328
But I never really considered
what that meant.

853
00:54:50,412 --> 00:54:51,496
'Cause I realize now,

854
00:54:51,579 --> 00:54:54,708
every comedian brings
a different demographic of fans

855
00:54:54,791 --> 00:54:55,959
to these shows.

856
00:54:56,042 --> 00:54:59,671
And I'm learning about who y'all are,
'cause whenever I get a chance

857
00:54:59,754 --> 00:55:02,799
to talk to people who work
at these shows, like the ushers,

858
00:55:02,882 --> 00:55:05,552
they always tell me they like my audience,

859
00:55:05,635 --> 00:55:09,806
'cause y'all generally like to have
a good time, but you don't overdo it.

860
00:55:10,890 --> 00:55:13,560
Very few people
get kicked out of my shows.

861
00:55:13,643 --> 00:55:16,229
Even in Philadelphia,
it was quite peaceful.

862
00:55:18,523 --> 00:55:19,816
It was chill.

863
00:55:22,027 --> 00:55:23,320
'Cause you guys are kind.

864
00:55:23,403 --> 00:55:25,822
You respect yourselves,
you respect others.

865
00:55:25,905 --> 00:55:28,366
And you just want to go to bed early.

866
00:55:30,118 --> 00:55:31,202
I see you.

867
00:55:31,286 --> 00:55:33,747
I mean, in a way, I'm proud of you.

868
00:55:35,123 --> 00:55:40,128
I know you got a wind-down routine
that you cannot wait to initiate.

869
00:55:41,087 --> 00:55:44,174
There's so much to do.
You gotta brew a chamomile tea.

870
00:55:44,257 --> 00:55:47,594
You gotta take a hot shower.
You gotta do your skincare routine.

871
00:55:47,677 --> 00:55:50,513
You got your lymphatic drainage massage.

872
00:55:50,597 --> 00:55:52,640
You gotta meditate,
you gotta read that book

873
00:55:52,724 --> 00:55:54,642
you've been trying to finish
for 13 months.

874
00:55:54,726 --> 00:55:55,894
It's a lot.

875
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,191
So I'm grateful that y'all are the fans

876
00:56:01,274 --> 00:56:03,651
'cause it's always such a kind,
loving, wholesome vibe.

877
00:56:03,735 --> 00:56:06,988
I-- I want to reciprocate
your support and your goodwill

878
00:56:07,072 --> 00:56:09,783
with a little bit of transparency.

879
00:56:09,866 --> 00:56:14,788
Uh, I believe I owe this to you.
I just want to come clean. Um…

880
00:56:14,871 --> 00:56:16,456
I got a fake tooth.

881
00:56:19,084 --> 00:56:21,002
It's here in the middle, in the front.

882
00:56:21,086 --> 00:56:25,090
So you have been deceived
for 56 minutes now.

883
00:56:27,258 --> 00:56:28,093
This is a crown.

884
00:56:28,176 --> 00:56:30,261
Everything else is real
except for this crown.

885
00:56:30,345 --> 00:56:32,514
If you're a dentist, it's number eight.

886
00:56:34,891 --> 00:56:38,353
I broke that tooth a number of years ago.
It was a different time in my life.

887
00:56:38,436 --> 00:56:41,272
I was living in New York,
not making the best choices.

888
00:56:41,356 --> 00:56:44,776
Obviously before I activated
my purple toothbrush.

889
00:56:48,113 --> 00:56:51,032
It's traumatic.
Your first set of teeth, that's for fun.

890
00:56:51,116 --> 00:56:53,660
Your second set, that's for real.

891
00:56:54,494 --> 00:56:56,454
It's not coming back.

892
00:56:56,538 --> 00:56:59,040
I was so ashamed. I was so desperate.

893
00:56:59,124 --> 00:57:00,458
I went to my dentist, I said,

894
00:57:00,542 --> 00:57:04,629
"Please, I need you to control-Z
what I did to myself."

895
00:57:05,755 --> 00:57:06,923
She was very reassuring.

896
00:57:07,006 --> 00:57:09,801
She said, "No problem.
We're gonna put a crown on that."

897
00:57:09,884 --> 00:57:13,346
I didn't know what that meant.
I said, "Do what you got to do. Let's go."

898
00:57:13,430 --> 00:57:16,266
When they put a crown on a broken tooth,

899
00:57:16,349 --> 00:57:20,395
they first whittle down
what's left of the tooth

900
00:57:20,478 --> 00:57:24,023
into a tiny bloody stump.

901
00:57:25,775 --> 00:57:30,572
Most dentists don't want you
to see, think, or know about that thing.

902
00:57:31,156 --> 00:57:34,325
My dentist decided
she wanted to show me her work.

903
00:57:36,327 --> 00:57:41,166
At one point during the process,
she swung a mirror down to my face.

904
00:57:41,666 --> 00:57:44,502
I didn't know what was going on.
I thought we were done.

905
00:57:46,337 --> 00:57:49,799
I thought it was like when the barber
shows you the back of your head.

906
00:57:50,842 --> 00:57:52,844
I'm about to get your tip ready.

907
00:57:56,848 --> 00:57:59,142
I took a quick glance.

908
00:58:00,393 --> 00:58:02,061
Horror.

909
00:58:04,522 --> 00:58:08,693
I did not react
'cause I didn't want to give it power.

910
00:58:10,153 --> 00:58:12,363
I went dead in the face.

911
00:58:13,198 --> 00:58:16,201
I looked away.
I said, "Don't ever do that again."

912
00:58:17,869 --> 00:58:21,206
I said, "I don't know
why I got to tell you this right now,

913
00:58:21,289 --> 00:58:25,168
but I came here for more tooth."

914
00:58:26,294 --> 00:58:30,131
"I wanted increase tooth."

915
00:58:30,215 --> 00:58:33,092
"You've been going the wrong way
the whole time!"

916
00:58:37,889 --> 00:58:41,684
What I saw continues to haunt me.

917
00:58:42,977 --> 00:58:44,521
In the mirror, I see this,

918
00:58:44,604 --> 00:58:47,273
but in my mind, I know the truth.

919
00:58:48,691 --> 00:58:52,403
So I am motivated to protect that crown.

920
00:58:52,487 --> 00:58:56,574
I don't use that thing.
That's not for biting or tearing.

921
00:58:56,658 --> 00:58:58,535
It's purely decorative.

922
00:58:59,369 --> 00:59:01,162
Because I know
if that crown ever fell out,

923
00:59:01,246 --> 00:59:03,915
there is a petite goblin inside.

924
00:59:05,291 --> 00:59:06,668
Lurking.

925
00:59:08,086 --> 00:59:10,880
It's with me always.

926
00:59:15,343 --> 00:59:17,637
And if you look closely, you could tell,

927
00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:21,891
this crown, it's slightly bigger
and whiter than the counterparts.

928
00:59:22,392 --> 00:59:25,562
'Cause when you go through that process,
they let you pick a color.

929
00:59:25,645 --> 00:59:27,397
You choose a hue.

930
00:59:28,273 --> 00:59:32,193
Somewhere between off-white
and off-er-white.

931
00:59:32,819 --> 00:59:34,821
And you can go lighter or darker,

932
00:59:34,904 --> 00:59:38,324
depending on where
you feel like your life is headed.

933
00:59:40,159 --> 00:59:44,747
You still got ambition,
or are you ready to just coast it out now?

934
00:59:46,332 --> 00:59:47,292
You decide.

935
00:59:47,375 --> 00:59:50,962
But if you're gonna go for it,
you gotta be honest with yourself.

936
00:59:51,045 --> 00:59:54,674
How white are the other teeth
ever gonna get?

937
00:59:55,675 --> 01:00:00,930
And how many years are you down
to have one bright-ass tooth?

938
01:00:02,015 --> 01:00:03,808
I'm Sheng Wang. Thank you, DC.

939
01:00:06,311 --> 01:00:09,772
Thank you. Take care of yourselves.

940
01:00:10,481 --> 01:00:12,775
Love each other, support each other.

941
01:00:14,277 --> 01:00:15,737
I'll see you next time.
