• 1:42
  Speaker 2: anything or have high aspirations to put these sayings into
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: your life. Let me give you an example. Statistics say
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: that's it. That's the one I want you to be
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: careful about. Statistics say, be very careful of stats. When
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: a person says, you know, statistics say one out of
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: every what see, listen to me. These are things that
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: sound like they're good, sound solid advice, but they're setting
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: you up for failure.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: And you can't adhere.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Yourself to a lot of these sayings that's been passed

  Speaker 2: down from generations.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: And it's not scripture. It ain't in a scripture nowhere
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: that statistics say.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: It's just some people and a lot of people who
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: have lost have come up with these sayings to justify
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: why they keep losing or why they lost. When I
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: was Earth got started in the business, there were more
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: stand ups around now than it is today. Because the
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: comedy boom in eighty four eighty five was it was
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: scanning and a lot of momentums, comedy clubs, comedy nights everywhere.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: The statistic that a guy told me.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: I told him I wanted to be on the Johnny
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Carson Show, the Tonight Show. The guy said, one out
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: of every two thousand comedians ever make it to the
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: Tonight Show.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Now, when he told us that, some of the comedians
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: in the room went, well, wow, man, that's rough, because
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: a guy had also said that there was approximately six
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: thousand comedians in the country at that time. I don't
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: know if it was true. I'm just telling you a
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: guy was out there spewing numbers. I have no idea
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: how many it was, but he said, one in every
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: two thousand will make it to the Tonight Show.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: And he let the air out of everybody in the
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: room but me.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: So every night before I went on stage, I used
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: to do this right here, batu.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Bat up. That was the Tonight theme song.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: I was young, opening act nowhere near Hollywood, didn't. I
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: was in Cleveland telling jokes at one night. But that
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: was my thing because I was bent and determined that
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: if it's one in two thousand, okay, why don't I
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: just be the one?
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Be careful when.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: People say statistics say, because they are set up to fulfailure.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: If you're gonna adhere to him. See that won in
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: so many it wanted. So many people win the lottery.

• 4:40
  Speaker 2: be the one to hit. Not when the dude hits
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: you go while he was lucky, but he played. Here's
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: another one. Maybe it's not meant to be. Let's go
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: one step further. I guess it wasn't the Lord's will.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: Don't you dare blame God for something you may have
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: not done yourself because you didn't get the proper education,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: because you didn't do the things you were supposed to do,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: because you didn't stay to the task, because you quit,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: turned around and went the other way. Now, maybe it's
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: not it wasn't the lord's will. These are all statements
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: that sound like sound advice, but they ain't all the time,
