So what do you what are youdoing nowadays? What do you are

(02:07):
you mixing? It up. Oh, I'm still talking about family, I
mean obviously, and I'm not trappingon marriage either. My parents are still
married, Like I believe in it. My parents have been married like fifty
three years and they're very much inlove. You wouldn't believe that if you
ever drove in a car with them, though, you would not think so.

(02:27):
Well, A nice to be you'retalking about. It's different now because
I have to get like different.I had to get new furniture, like
that's what I'm talking about now,my new experiences. You know, I
have to all new furniture because whenyou're going through a divorce, you're not
looking ahead thinking like hey where amI going to sit? You buying furniture
that maybe is a little too hipfor you. No, no, I'm
not going through like a face likethat. Okay, but I know it's

(02:52):
very homey here. It's comfortable,but it's I don't have a lot on
the walls. I need some Ido have a fake tree, like olive
tree, and I enjoy that.Somebody shifted that to me. So I
have a couple like fake plants,and you're coming along. But also I
have a picture of Walter Payton sweetness. It's framed. It's framed, and

(03:14):
it's an action photo. It's classyhigh school bedroom. It's not the one
on the cover of s I isit. No, it's just an action
it's photo. It's you know,he's in Green Bay and he's dirty,
you know, his the uniforms filthy, and he's got the towels. It's
a great shot anyway, Medium Patmccanneal, I don't want to dwell on

(03:37):
the divorce, but like, howdoes it work, Like you have to
stay in the same town as yourkids, you still like live in in
the old neighborhood kind of. Ohyeah, I'm very close to their school
and stayed in the community, andI have them half the time, like
it's even split, so you know, trying to make it is comfortable and

(04:00):
healthy as possible, you know,and sometimes I have them, sometimes I
don't, which seems to be kindof confusing for them becau They're always like,
hey, is this dad's weekend?Is this a dad's weekends? Like
when I'm not with you, that'sdad's weekend. So what if? I
mean, I don't know, we'veagain, can't I didn't want to go
too deep here. I am soundsfresh. What exactly was the catalyst here?

(04:24):
Was it? It wasn't like yougoing out on tour with Sebastian man
Scalco that that broke the relationship up? Was it? No? Okay?
And I'm not going to completely openup to you. You know that,
right, I'm not going to tellyou everything. Well I knew that,
but sometimes people do that with me. But take a stab. That's another
theory, Like was it the travel? Was it like? And then I'm

(04:46):
just like, yes, it wasit was the travel. Then I'll then
I text them, can SETTI likeyou won? You got it right?
I feel like it was anyone that'smarried. You understand why we got divorced.
Okay, that I get. Ididn't think you're allowed for that.

(05:09):
I'm still like trying to figure itout. But I'm also trying to like
normalize talking about divorce because people wouldget so uncomfortable about it and it's you
know, it's hard, but it'salso like it's reality, right, and
we got to trying to really justmove forward in a healthy way. And
you know, I don't want toever speak poorly about my ex wife or

(05:30):
of course not. He's got tobe like you know, chin up and
but it is tough for the kids. And I do have them in mind
all the time. This is,this is this is a machine that you've
got. You've got a machine nowworking for you for future comedy. It's
a little tough right now, butit's gonna it's gonna, it's gonna pay.
It's dividends, my friend. Don'tyou worry? Hey, how do
