Hey everyone, welcome to Kill Me Now with Judy Gold, I am your host, Judy Gold.

This week we have part two of my conversation with John Laster, he is such a great guy.

In fact, I was doing a set last night at the Comedy Cellar and he was hosting the show

and I was so happy to see him because he's as you will hear more this week, he's just

a phenomenal person.

So sit back, relax and enjoy, I love you.

So you graduate but you're done with the basketball because you were on your end but you were

on your way to, you know, going into the NBA, it's like, yeah, this is my next step

is the NBA.

You said that you didn't have, you were too immature, you didn't have the work ethic,

you were sort of defiant and like, fuck this shit.

But you do get a BA in economics with an emphasis on poverty, did you do well academically

or were you just interested in that or do you think you learned?

You said that you learned that the key is to move money around.

Well, well to, you know, in any population, like if the circulation of the dollar, if

your money's not circulating as a marginalized population, then you're going to stay in

the same place, you know, and I learned that at a, at a very young age.

So yeah, economics is a hard major, not at all, I don't think so.

I don't think any of that stuff was all that difficult in college, not to mention to be

honest with you.

Yeah, we had a lot of people helping us out.

Oh, yeah, they get, I know, they have a lot of tutors, a lot of tutors.
