This is the Dan Levitar show with the Stucats podcast.

I remember many years ago.

I obviously didn't know who these people would become,

but almost one of the first times I'd ever seen stand-up.

I was in Los Angeles, and the performers were Louis Anderson and Jim Carrey.

So, and it was before, obviously, they were what they would end up becoming.

Jim Carrey to me is one of the most talented people in the history of Hollywood.

And there's a great story involving how it is that
