    I forgot about Kevin Meaney, dude was funny and one of those natural performers. So cool how he gave Louis a shot just meeting him at the video store. Seemed like the type of guy who'd do that, no ego (of course I could be wrong). Just looked him up and sad to see he died young just ~7 years ago, "That's not right!" 😂 RIP and thanks for the laughs

    • @whataboutthis10

      Surrender the unchallenged inflated views of your self, the immature ego. Basically shedding immaturity. Could be cozy beliefs of greatness and self-importance. Or the opposite even, whatever you're trying to "prove to yourself, by trying to convince others", whatever's holding you back to experience broader life.
      Giving up shielding what's core to you in order to be present. Feels like dying because your losing anything that offered ultimate stability, what seemed to be core of confidence, yet more likely was ignorant arrogance. Only after rebirth performance can be playful instead of a fight. When it's a fight for survival of initial wannabe beliefs, you might still be funny or whatever's the goal, you might make it somewhat even, but you're essentially limited. In that initial stage criticisms are perceived as attacks, rather than suggestions.
      Don't take everything literally, also enlightenment doesn't stay forever. Ego builds again, every time is similar but it gets easier I guess, it's sure special as it gets first time

      They mean you have to fail in order to be successful. “Die” meaning do bad, no laughs from audience

      They mean that you have to die on stage to be good. Hope that helps.
      On some real shit though, I think it is an improper quote. It would be better to say “you need to know you’re dying on stage to get good”. All new comedians are bad, no exceptions, but many don’t know that they’re bad. I was guilty of this myself. Once you really start to recognize that you’re eating shit in front of an entire room of people where you’re the center of attention, you really get the motivation to either get better or quit.

      ​@@whataboutthis10 W comment. This is true for life in a broader sense as well. What you think about yourself is irrelevant, yet we are drawn through life by it. It's a little string tied around our balls moving us from one place to another. We think we have the reins, but our egos are the bit & bridle

    Why do you think we use verbs like “kill” or “slay” or “murder” to describe doing really well doing a comedy act? And if you don’t do well, you “bomb” or are “destroyed.”???? Interesting.
