You're listening to Comedy Central. You have a hand up? Yes, does my grandma? Oh, my grandmother passed away, so I uh oh no, it's not said she's she's dead. It was gonna happen. She's so because she's ninety six years old. This is a thing that happened. Yeah, don't no, no, no, don't worry. It's not like as not really, it's not a sad thing. She probably does in heaven. Maybe maybe that's like my but she never know. She never told
people that I was famous. Um. You see, this is an interesting departure from I think American celebrity culture in particular, is that where I grew up and how I grew up, fame wasn't really a currency in that way. So we grew up knowing people, but fame wasn't a thing. Does that make sense? So so like people just be like travor travor, you know what I mean. They'd be happy for me that like when I got pulled over by the police when I went home recently, which is very
in South Africa. It's not like a thing here. It's like Mars. Something's gonna happen in South Africa. In America's like that, and then in South Africa they're just like yeah, everyone pull over, pull over, pullover, and the cops come and they just chat to you and whatever they do. It's it's really it's really chilled out. Like in fact, sometimes getting pulled over and relaxes you in South Africa,
you know, because traffic is stressful driving. And then the cops I pull over and you're like, oh finally and they come to the window and they're like how are you saying. You're like, oh, man, actually, I'm glad you put I'm feeling good. And then the couple even he was just like what are you doing here? My man? What are you doing here? I'm you working? Then I was like, yeah, no, I'm working. I'll be back on Monday. He's like, hey, yeah, yeah, must go back to worker.
Let's go back to work so you can talk about Joe Biden. Yeah. So yeah, it's like it's it's an interesting thing. So I no, I don't think my grant. I don't think ever even said the words famous in that way. She almost said famous, more like it's a job. If if that makes does this make sense? I know it's a weird thing, but it's like my Grandma's an African and mother. She doesn't think of famous as a concept. She thinks of it more as like, what does what does he do? Oh? He does famous? You know what
I mean? Yeah, he does famous, and then you know some people know him for that and then uh yeah. But I think I always appreciated that about her. Is that like I am as famous to my grandmother as all my other cousins, you know, as my other siblings as I you know what I mean, which I think is pretty ridiculous. I mean, you ask me, But I mean, she's a grandmother. That's what she does. I wonder what
grandparents are doing, what anyone is doing in heaven. It must be weird like old people probably, like heaven seems like an old people place. If you're young and you go to heaven, you're just like ah, because everything they describe about heaven is pretty much it's like church. It's long church, No, they do, I grew up in church. That's what they say. Heaven will be They say, like, then you will praise the Lord for the until the end of your days. It's like NonStop. The trumpets will
be lowing, the angels will be singing. It's basically church forever for eternity, and I can see my grandmother being like, no, this is what I came for. The Daily Show with Trevor no Ears Edition.
