[Bit 1]

Well, I'm sober now.
And I'm starting to notice that
being sober is kind of an unacceptable way of life.

[Bit 2]

You know?
especially in the comedy industry, an industry where comedians get applauded for being fucked up.
You know, it's "I'm on mushrooms!"
Yeah!
Well, imagine if we allowed that for other industries.
You know, where it's like, "Hi, I'm Dr. Thomas. I'm going to be doing your surgery today."
And I'm on mushrooms!
What? No!
Oh, man, isn't the human body a fucking trip, man?
Nurse, come here, look.
Pfft, pfft, pfft.
That's his kidney.
Aren't kidneys weird?
They're neither a kid nor a knee.
That's fucking weird, man.

[Bit 3]

So I'm in the program now.
And when I say I'm in the program,

I mean, come on, I've done enough drugs to know we're not real.
