It's actually in a book.
She was a waitress during a Chicago comedy festival, late 90s.
And she had watched my set.
And then afterwards, all the staff is closing out.
All the comics are going, hey, what bar do we go to?
And go around the corner.
So I'm sitting next to her and it ends up me and her, the last people there.
And I said, are you going to this bar?
And she goes, I just want you to know I saw your set tonight and I think you're absolutely disgusting.
So I get booked back there and she's working there.
I'm doing a regular week.
How many years later?
Yeah, it goes from a festival to an actual headlining week.
And I so I I said to her, all right, listen, I said that you said that.
Well, we're going to work the whole week together.
So how about we have a truce?
And she said, yeah, fine by me.
And then cut to after, you know, the bar closed.
