  • When I was about twelve, there was only one thing I wanted more than anything.
  • Do you know what it was, Jennifer?
  • It's a girlfriend.
  • I really wanted a girlfriend, and at the time when I was twelve, I wasn't the popular guy in school.
  • Not at all.
  • Lenny, my best friend was.
  • And he had this amazing Adidas jacket that reverses and it's white on the inside.
  • And on cold mornings, get this character, he would take off his jacket, he would reverse it, and he'd pop it on the prettiest girl in school and say, stay warm.
  • And he plays basketball.
  • And then the girls just swoon over him and I'm just sitting on the side eating a packet of chips.
  • And I'm just there going, Lenny, you're amazing.
  • So I asked Lenny one day, I said, Lenny, how can I just find one girlfriend?
  • You know, you have heaps.
  • And Lenny gave me the best advice.
  • He said, oh, it's easy, man.
  • Just be funny.
  • I was like.
  • Knew it was easy.
  • So I went onto Yahoo, because that was all at the time.
  • And I just went, jokes, and I found one.
  • And there was this girl I fancied, and her name was Stacy.
  • Beautiful blonde hair.
  • And I remember seeing Stacy in the class.
  • I was like, being funny.
  • Girlfriend, love, yes.
  • There was a pause in the class, and I stood up and I said, Stacy, did you know that the first French fry wasn't cooked in France?
  • It's cooked in Greece.
  • She had no idea what the hell that meant, right?
  • She looks me dead in the eye, Jennifer, and she says, oh my God, you're not funny.
  • Stop trying to be like Lenny.

  • There was a mold that everybody in my life had for me, and the mold that they all had for me was textbook loser, really.
  • During school sporting events, never get picked.
  • Teachers never remember my name.
  • But the thing is, there was a mold for me.
  • So the moment I tried something different, I tried to break out of my mold, these people immediately put me back into that mold.
  • And the reason I'm sharing this story with you, Jennifer, is that what saved me was my dad.
  • He pulled me out of that school,
  • put me in a new school.
  • No kids in this school had any preconceived ideas of who I was.
  • And that freed me from the mold that everyone in my existing school was creating around me.
  • So I realized, Jennifer, I needed to find a new environment where no one had preconceived ideas of who I was, so I could practice the part of me that I want to develop.
  • One of the most amazing places, Jennifer, improv classes.
  • I know this sounds outrageous, but in an improv class, it's a safe environment where it symbolizes a new school, no one knows who you are, and they get you to play improv games to get you to break out of your comfort zone.
  • Then before improv, then after improv, completely different human being.
  • It's the most fun you ever have as an adult.
  • It will change your life.
  • I genuinely mean that.
