This must have been a dream of yours for a long time.

Was that the Groundlings in Los Angeles doing improv?

And how did your family must be over the top?

Thrilled that you're doing something alive?

I think that I'm on the show that I actually have a job.

I mean, they watch it, but they're sort of still can't believe it.

Yeah, like when I when I called my dad to tell him that I was coming on your show is like, I'm so excited I'm gonna be uncommon.

And he was, like, Always like, That's so great.

I'm gonna I'm gonna be a guest on the show.

I graduate from college and I went right to Los Angeles to try and get into show business.

I was actually in school in Arizona and I moved to L.

No, no, I was in Arizona and I just wanted to go.

And I was scared to tell my parents, so I just didn't, um And then I went out there and I got a job at, um, the Hollywood Hot Dog Company.

But it was in Beverly Hills, and it was like a little I'm surprised it failed.

It's a restaurant that's called the Hot Dog Hot Dog.

This hot dog is made with the finest pork.

So and did people are people excited for you working at the hot dog company?

Well, the yeah rumors kind of went around back home and had moved to L.

A and that I worked at a hot dog stand in the city that I had my own hot dog stand.

So I declare that I was like, No, it's it's a It's a hot dog restaurant, and it's very different.

Um, so you work for a long time at this restaurant?

Yeah, because you know, when you moved there, have to have your head shot in your resume, and my resume was there was nothing on it.

It looked like a flyer, like just my name.

Um, well, some people list all kinds of skills on their resume When they want to be an actor or comedian.

They say crossbow, you know, good at running.

Yeah, but that can also get you in trouble, because my it was my second commercial audition, and my agent called me and she said She's like, Oh, I got this audition came in, but I need to know are are you a dancer?

And I was like, Uh, yeah, yeah, I'm a dancer.

Um, and she knew that because she said, Are you sure we'll tell you?

The way you answered, the question would be a giveaway.

I went to the audition, and it was a room full of dancers, and they had their leotards on and their hair and buns.

And I had, like, sweatpants, like running shoes on.

I know you like showing up for the Rocky audition.

Yeah, it's like doing little stretches like to second quad stretches while they have their leg up there.

Um and I went into the room and it was terrified, Very nervous.
