The imperative

Oh, by the way, I'm sorry, I I just got some news.

Um, your special was the most watched special of 2020.

So you're its's called zero fucks Given and I accidentally keep giving fucks.

The title was more of an attention grabber.

You know, for me, it was zero fucks given.

Just meant that I'm comfortable with being where I am in my life and, uh, and comfortable with being in my environment to the point where the things around it don't matter as much.

So when when I say I got zero fucks to give, it means you know of what you feel or think about the life that I choose to live and be comfortable with.

And that's the life of ah, a dad of a family man.

You know, uh, one that's okay with being home.

One that has opinions about people and and why I'm becoming older and irritable it zero fucks given about about my attitude with being myself.

It's It's not worrying about the naysayers or opinions of others.

That's that's the play on the title, you know?

I think it's also it might go into just jokes you do and you don't care about.

I mean, I think comedy in a weird way, is getting.

Everyone would be happy if we just drew from the same five jokes and everyone did them.

It's just it's hard to be a comedian this day and age and used to try to be edgy and try to do stuff that was different.

And that was what made you good comedian.

That's why you gotta You gotta get comfortable and be happy just once again with where you are.

So when you when you find when you find happiness and confidence in that, nothing else really matters.

So outside of cooling from my world once again the cool dad with a crazy lifestyle that my kids have grown with me in and that my wife is now with me and through ups and downs, I've kind of constantly just been a, uh I've been a open book.

I've been very transparent, and there's always gonna be backlash.

There's always gonna be conversation, but not giving a fuck and having zero fucks about the opinions of how you feel, Um, is what I'm happy it's about at this point cabin you were in the in the clip.

You're talking about private schools, and it made me think that all my friends that were sort of big in comedy or that that have been successful all went to regular school public.

And now there's this interesting pressure that they have money.

They're doing well, including myself, where our kids go private and it's it's a weird thing in your head going Is that gonna make it better or worse?

And then it's hard to pretend you're not rich or, you know, you see Beyonce's kid.

Yeah, well, like I'm saying, if you're if you're a kid, I'm saying like, you're Beyonce's kid and she's like, do a lemonade stand.

The kids like do I really gotta walk through this I'm getting 100 million.

You're gonna go through the motions, All right?

I'm not saying for me as much because I still go check to check.

You know that You gotta think Look, at the end of day, your kids, your kids didn't ask to be born into the situation at the end.

So if you are an entertaining, you have a crazy amount of success or just anybody that has a crazy amount of success.

If you come from the bottom and you work your way up, that's not your kid's fault that you know that they don't have to do the same or that they were born into, Ah, blessed situation full of opportunities, I think is your job as a parent just to find a balance.

So with me in the private school thing, it's just about I don't like I don't like the constant, um, there's this.

There's this crazy thing of always wanting to figure it out that a private school does for these kids, like they always want toe help and answer the questions or help motivate the child.

Sometimes a kid needs toe fall on their face or fail a little bit To understand why it's important to do what you're supposed to.

So that's where my back and forth with the private school comes from.

Thio, your your special is amazing and and a crazy achievement for us.

You know, you're the You're the first female special that I've produced.

You know, first Black woman at heart beat that we've been able to attach an hour comedy special too, and rightfully so.

So that is an amazing accomplishment, not just for myself, but for my company.

Outside of that, You know what I think the I'm gonna go The biggest one for me, of course, was the birth of my baby girl.

I had another addition to the family, Koray, my heart, um, excited about that and I got that man somehow pulling you off away professional in 2020 and during a pandemic.

So, you know, I got I got lots of things to be thankful for.

Lots of things to be happy about, but most excited about my new little girl.

I know you're you're shooting a movie, and thanks for being here and we'll talk to you soon.

And, uh, this is a really cool thing to see.

So I'm sure that this won't be the last time that you guys have me on.
