00:00Comparisons to Lenny Bruce, comparisons to Bob Dylan, comparisons to being a sort of
00:06philosopher king.
00:08Jesus.
00:10When I said I wanted to work with Louis C.K., I should have been more specific, as opposed
00:17to like how it all panned out.
00:20These stories have been around for a while, and everybody kind of casually knows, really.
00:26This jerking off comedian is obviously jerks Louis C.K.
00:30He basically said something along the lines of, what, like I like to jerk off in front
00:34of people.
00:35He's talking about what turns the mind.
00:37Most female comedians quit because it's just a series of indignities that they have to
00:41suffer their entire life.
00:43Because you've been socialized in this world where men get to treat women however they
00:47want.
00:48If he's done this stuff and he's denied it, we just thought, well, let's see how much
00:53of a story there is there.
00:54We got the sense that there were going to be other women.
00:56They were told to keep quiet.
00:58People are scared.
00:59They want to be on his side for work.
01:02He didn't use the word sorry, but he wrote a whole essay explaining that he knew he did
01:08something wrong.
01:10He got caught.
01:11The man got caught.
01:14I was like, well, the fact that I thought it wasn't my problem is the problem.
01:18Like, that's exactly the problem.
01:20Louis did what?
01:21I don't know.
01:26How do we deal with this?
01:28How do we welcome people back or not welcome people back?
01:31Usually, white men get away with the stuff that they do.
01:34Like, you know he's coming back, right?
01:39He started to do more touring, and they started to sell out.
01:43Everybody lives with a certain amount of hypocrisy, and this is the amount that I've allocated
01:48for myself.
01:49Making fun of the victims is still good for business.
01:54Women are hurting and feel like they're crazy because everyone's letting all these predators
01:58back.
01:59Not only did he get away with it, he's like rubbing it in all of our faces.
02:08Louis had a whole bit about how the greatest threat to women is men.
02:12Louis could still do that bit and say, and I was one of those guys.
