00:00Is it true that prior to acting, you were studying to become a funeral director?
00:06Yes.
00:08That was the one I didn't think! A funeral director?
00:11Yeah.
00:12Why? How?
00:15Doesn't it make sense, though?
00:20My grandfather died, and I remembered thinking, this is not how they should be.
00:26This should be a celebration of life, and since I'm not afraid of death and I was comfortable with it,
00:30I thought, this would be a great career path.
00:34I could throw these parties.
00:36I could, like, make this better. I could do a thing here.
00:39We need more people like that. It shouldn't be that.
00:41It's my fallback career now.
00:43That's great, I did not know that about you.
00:45Is it true that you consider becoming a pilot?
00:48Yes, I'm a pilot.
00:50You are a pilot?
00:51I am a pilot.
00:52I would guess that you would be.
00:54But I don't know why.
00:56And my son, Maddox, is training to be a pilot now, too.
01:00Actually, he is a pilot now.
01:02Finally, is it true that you love stand-up comedy?
01:05At one point, you considered trying stand-up.
01:07That is definitely a no.
01:10You would not.
01:12You would not do that.
01:13No.
01:14No, but you love comedy.
01:15Yeah.
01:16I could deal with a funeral. I could deal with 10,000 feet in the air.
01:21But no, what you do terrifies.
01:24No, I'm kidding.
01:25Okay, that's good to know.
