Backstage, I was talking to you very briefly.
And you're sort of talking about how you, you kind of live
you don't live in the city, city, part of Los Angeles.
You live out in the, in the country a little bit, right?
A little bit.
I live in this really magical land called Topanga Canyon.
Wow, the magical world of Topanga.
It is, there's no cell phone reception.
There's very little internet.
It's awesome.
There's a small little public library still,
people go to.
And you don't have a television
and you pride yourself a little bit on, on
on kind of enjoying the land,
living a natural life would you say?
Yeah, I love it, I love it.
I definitely live a different lifestyle
I would say than a lot of people I know.
Right,
Or have met.
But, but you're not like a
would you say survivalist, you a survivalist.
Could you live off the land if you had to?
I think I could.
Maybe for a few days survive.
I mean, it's one of those things that
of course you think you can
and then you're in that situation,
you're like, Oh my God, how do I make fire again?
I forgot, this isn't working.
Are you comfortable like, can you find berries
or anything in the woods that you would eat?
I'm just curious.
Like I'm never comfortable doing that.
Because you were afraid it would be poisonous?
Unless I saw, a hamburger growing
on a branch, I wouldn't, but yeah
I'd be afraid of eating the wrong thing.
Are you pretty comfortable saying, Oh, that looks good.
Chomp.
Yeah, for the most part I am.
Except for, with mushrooms.
Those guys are a little scary because they can kill you.
Yeah, it can either be an amazing experience
or your last experience.
You tweeted recently, I'm so obsessed with toads.
Yeah, I am.
Let's talk about that.
I, do you like toads?
Sure, why not?
I think they're great.
And what is it? What do you like about to,
I mean, first of all, you saw a toad and you,
I, okay, I was in the middle of the desert
in Arizona and we were at some beautiful Hot Springs
and this toad jumped up and according
to like Native American tradition
this tone meant, toad meant like good luck
and was supposed to bring you messages and what not.
But it was just beautiful.
And the fact that it could survive
in the middle of nowhere in this one
small little Oasis of water, it just fascinated me.
I thought it was a really neat little animal
a little cool little amphibian.
You know what I like, I like getting obsessed
or excited about something it's soon more commonplace.
You know what I mean?
It's like, it's nice.
It's nice to say like, look
at something in nature and get excited about it.
A toad!
Yeah.
It was huge too.
It was, I have giant hands I've giant hands
for a woman and the toad was bigger than my hand.
Wow. Do you walk around measuring things against your,
Sometimes because they're so big,
I feel like it's a good way to sort of measure things
Did, Okay, so the toad, obviously that was a great,
or you seem very upbeat and positive.
Is that true?
Is that's the, that's the, I'm going to say vibe
but that's what, that's, what I'm getting is that you were
a very upbeat person.
I am, I love life.
I'm a life lover.
That's good, do you wake up?
Do you wake up every day?
And because I'm, I wake
up every day and go, like, I hate it all.
I'm like the Grinch I'm like,
I'll get those Whoville people. Do you?
I wake up every day and I sing a song
or like a little phrase of a song, you know
that song good morning, good morning.
Yeah.
Every morning, and then sometimes I'll follow it
up and I'll say like exciting day, exciting day.
Oh wow, that would not go over in my house.
If there's friends over, I don't do it
because I know it's a little bit intense for them.
But when you're working, when you're working
like 5:30 AM every day
and you have to sort of be in front of a lot of people
I feel like I have to wake myself up first.
That's good.
And I'm not a morning person.
