    Wendi: Alright, we've been watching some comedy lately. I wanna know who your favorite comic is?

    Ken: My favorite comic? It's a draw between Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock.

    Wendi: Is Chris Rock really like, is he still doing something?

    Ken: No, he really hasn't done anything recently, but still like, yeah, he's pretty, a pretty funny guy.

    Wendi: He it totally funny.

    Ken: He's hard to top.

    Wendi: When is the last time he was totally working a lot, though?

    Ken: It's gotta be maybe five years ago.

    Wendi: Yeah, it's been awhile.

    Ken: Yeah. Now he's like... I don't even know what he does anymore. Maybe he's an actor now.

    Wendi: He's flipping burgers.

    Ken: Yeah, he has to feed his family.

    Wendi: Yeah, what about Dave Chappele? What's his deal? He's kind of?

    Ken: Dave Chapelle?

    Wendi: He's still working?

    Ken: Yeah. Maybe. He was really popular a couple of years ago when he was doing the Chapelle Show, a couple of his stand-ups came out, but...

    Wendi: Is that finished?

    Ken: He...which?

    Wendi: The Chappelle Show.

    Ken: It's taking a break or something. What I heard was that he went crazy and he like checked himself into an insane asylum.

    Wendi: For serious. For real.

    Ken: Like all the pressure from work was getting to him and stuff. Like he just wanted break.

    Wendi: That's so amazing.

    Ken: Or he ran off to Africa or something.

    Wendi: You know what, that is just incredible because, it's like you know, the whole grass is greener concept. It's like, you think if you're a comedian and you're making people laugh all day and you're on stage and you're laughing too that you're probably having fun but at the end of the day, I guess work's work.

    Ken: Yeah, work's work and he was doing, like he mentioned in stand-up he was working maybe 16, 18, 20 hours a day.

    Wendi: Really!

    Ken: Yeah, so even like hard to study...

    Wendi: What was he doing for 20 hours a day?

    Ken: Uh, like just doing his show. Like I guess it takes a lot of preparation and...

    Wendi: That's crazy.

    Ken: Even with all the help in the world, I guess he's still, you know, you have to make it quality, so it takes time and effort.

    Wendi: Yeah.

    Ken: So, even if it is comedy, it might not be fun twenty hours a day.

    Wendi: I guess that's like the funny thing, you just think if someone's a comedian, it just all comes naturally. It's like it all just comes spur of the moment, but I guess the real thing is that a lot of work goes into it.

    Ken: Yeah, I think so. Like to be creative on a consistent basis is probably isn't the easiest thing in the world.

    Wendi: Yeah. I think so. It sure is for me anyways.

    Wendi: Are you a Seinfeild fan?

    Ken: Seinfeild...

    Wendi: Not really. I'm reading your body language.

    Ken: No, I did watch a few episodes, here and there, when it was on TV and I was bored, but...

    Wendi: You're not a big fan?

    Ken: Like I started watching it after the show ended like you know when everybody was watching the season finale, like I had never really regularly watched the show and I didn't even catch the season finale, but so, me friends were like, "Did you watch it? Did you watch it?" and I'm like, "No."

    Wendi: I think it's brilliant. I think it's incredibly brilliant.

    Ken: Yeah, it's a good show.

    Wendi: Yeah.
