Hey, it's Christine from Storyworthy. What did you and your friends do as teenagers?

0:10.6

Like, I lived like, you know, days of confused. We just get drunk on the weekends until the cops came

and everyone knew what fences were easy to climb. And now I am shit-based. And I haven't been this drunk yet in my life. I'm

0:22.9

16. And this is the drunk as I've ever been because I would try to impress a girl. That would be a

1:00.0

Welcome in Storyworthy. My name is Christine Blackburn, and I'm coming to you from Los Angeles, California.

1:05.4

I'm so glad you guys tuned in today, whether you're a longtime fan of the show or a new listener,

1:11.2

welcome to Storyworthy. And I hope you guys enjoyed the story last week with comedian Matt Ritter.

1:16.4

And this guy, John Gabris, had a story that was just, it was off the hook. First of all,

1:23.3

the title of the story was, a horse died in my arms. Oh, geez. That sounds like an old country western song. Yeah. And here's the thing. It was such a dramatic story because he's not a horse guy, but he found himself in the situation. His wife, his new wife, happened to grow up on a horse farm. And he happened to be at her house. And anyway, next thing you know, he's in a field with a horse who has four legs in the air. Oh, man. That's not how they're supposed to be. No, they're not. It's usually the other way. Their legs are on the ground. It was so dramatic. And then the horse would just convulse and stand up and start running around crazily and all over the field. And then all of a sudden, f-h-back on its back again. Oh, no. That's upsetting. Anyway, it's, well, you know, the title tells you that it does not have a good ending.

2:14.0

John Gabris.

2:15.6

And here's the first question, John. Would you say actor first or comedian first? I don't know. I would say my accountant would call me a podcaster more than anything else. Do you like your accountant? I do. He's New York based. So I get to talk about the Giants and the Yankees with him and then say, hey, am I falling apart here or what?

2:34.7

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what? I just landed a good accountant about three years ago, and it's so refreshing because I always thought that, like, for all these years, I had gone to the shitty accountant, and I thought that's the way it had to be like it had to be a torture to go and really slog through it.

2:48.8

And now my guy is like so good, always gets me money.
