Ronny Chieng: Love to Hate It (2024)

Post by bunniefuu »

[tuning]

[gentle Hawaiian music playing over radio]

[revving]

[announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,

make some noise for Ronny Chieng!

[crowd cheering]

[upbeat music playing]

[crowd continues cheering]

[music fades]

Thank you.

Thank you, Hawaii!

I'm turning 38, so I'm harvesting

my wife's eggs this year.

I'm harvesting my wife's eggs

so that we can make embryos,

so we can freeze the embryos,

so that we do not have to have kids

right now because kids are what you have

when you've given up

on your own hopes and dreams.

[crowd laughing]

I'm still trying here!

I look at my friends

who are my age who have kids,

and they all look like sh*t.

[crowd laughing]

It's gotten to the point

where I can't even take a photo with them

and post it on my main grid

because it messes up

the aesthetics of my Instagram too much.

With their f*cking haggard faces.

Just drooping,

wrinkly crow's-feet-embedded heads.

Receding hairlines.

Just withering, graying hair

coming out in clumps.

Because of their children.

Like, I did a show,

and someone I went to high school with

in Singapore came to the show,

and after the show, I met up with them,

and they brought another person with them,

and I was like,

"Oh, is this other person your mom?"

"Thank you so much

for bringing your mother to my show."

And that other person was also

someone I went to high school with.

[crowd laughing]

That's how f*cking ugly...

[crowd laughing]

...these people have become

because of their children.

Just unrecognizable.

So I'm trying to use money and science

to push the curve back a little bit.

And, um, first step

of harvesting my wife's eggs is,

I have to inject my wife

twice a day for two weeks.

So, I have to inject my wife.

I am the one injecting my wife

twice a day for two weeks.

Zero medical training.

I was given

no medical training whatsoever.

The government lets you do this.

The... The doctor asked me to do it.

The doctor was like, "Hey,

have you ever held a needle before?"

"No? Perfect, here, take this,

and inject your wife

in the middle of her body,

like Nicolas Cage in The Rock."

[crowd laughing]

"Twice a day for two weeks

with chemicals that we mail to you."

"Mystery chemicals

that we send to your house

in unmarked brown boxes."

"Just trust us that it's the right thing

that you're injecting

into the person you love the most."

Internet chemicals that show up...

It comes in a powder!

I have to make it into a liquid,

you understand?

It's a meth lab in my kitchen

as I'm mixing... the comp...

I'm sweating the whole time

'cause I'm scared I'll f*ck up

the measurements and k*ll my wife

with these powerful pharmaceuticals

that you dissolve it in distilled water

completely, then you have to, like...

The air bubbles are f*cking up

the micro millimeter measurements.

And then you have to

put it in the syringe.

Then you have to flick the needle

with a positive attitude

like you know what you're doing.

[crowd laughing]

[scattered applause]

I don't know what I'm doing!

I saw someone do this on Doogie Howser.

[crowd laughing]

[crowd whooping]

I don't even know

the angle to put it into her.

[chuckling] Like, it looks

so painful going in, like...

I love my wife so much

I can't even bear to watch her in pain.

I couldn't even bear

to watch the needle go into her.

I had to inject my wife like this.

I had to, like, cover my eyes,

and, like, backhand it...

[crowd laughing]

...into her like Kurosawa.

[imitates sword slash]

"Did I get the middle of your body?"

"No?"

"Okay, just walk into the needle!"

[crowd laughing]

"I'm supposed to do all the work here?

Meet me halfway."

And, uh, the doctor said,

"If you do everything right,

if you... measure correctly,

you inject at the right times,

they scan, like, this part of her body,

you know, that Chicago Bulls logo.

- Right? And they were like...

- [crowd laughing]

..."If you do everything right,

based on what we can tell,

you should expect 15 eggs."

[inhales]

And my wife ended up getting 26.

[scattered whooping and applause]

Yeah. Always a...

[applause]

Yeah, always like a late,

half-hearted response to...

[crowd laughing]

Usually, the women in the crowd

are like, "Whoo, yeah."

All the men in the crowd are always like...

[crowd laughing]

"Is that a good number?"

"Is 26 a good number of eggs?"

"How many eggs equal one bebe?"

"Is it four eggs is one bebe?"

"So 26 eggs is six and a half bebes

if you squish it together..."

Let me put this in a language

that men can understand, okay?

Twenty-six eggs from one vag*na,

in one cycle, is MVP numbers.

[crowd laughing]

Twenty-six eggs is like,

if Magic Johnson averaged

the triple-double and k*lled his own A*DS.

[crowd laughing]

Okay? That's the level

of medical miracle that's happening

in whatever this part of my wife's body,

that horn of the bull

that, like, curls into itself.

The doctor, like, scraped out 26 eggs

out of my wife's vag*na, like salmon roe.

Just scooping out.

Just dripping out, and then you put it

in some nigiri, right?

And then you eat it.

That's how babies are made.

You gotta Salt Bae the eggs

onto the ikura, and then you eat it.

So, uh, we're trying to make embryos.

So, eggs, that's just half the equation.

I don't know if you know

how embryos are made,

but eggs, that's just half of it.

She did her part admirably.

So now I have to contribute

my half of the embryo equation.

So I'm sitting in the doctor's office.

[exhales]

Like a wet pigeon, all right?

And the doctor comes over.

And the doctor's a woman

because of course she is.

She's like, "Good morning, Mr. Chieng."

"So, um, when's the last time

you ejaculated?"

My wife is right here,

and she's like, "Yeah,

when is the last time you ejaculated?"

[crowd laughing]

"We would all like to know."

It's the one time in life where you're

not allowed to lie about jerking off.

It's when a medical professional

is asking you a direct question.

And it's for reproduction.

It's for the intended purpose,

so you gotta tell the truth.

So I'm like,

"Whatever, I'll tell the truth."

"Uh, let me check my calendar, uh..."

[crowd laughing]

"I guess the last time

I ejaculated was, um..."

"Let me see...

Uh, yesterday, around 3:00 p.m."

[crowd laughing]

And my wife is like,

"Yesterday...

I was with you all day."

[crowd laughing]

And I was like, "Yeah, but remember

when you took out the trash?"

[crowd laughing]

[crowd cheering]

Because I also put up MVP numbers.

Against a shot clock.

And heavy defensive pressure.

But I was thinking of you the whole time.

It's really hot the way you carried out

that dripping garbage bag

full of fish sauce

or whatever Vietnamese people eat.

My wife is Vietnamese.

I've no idea what the f*ck she eats.

Nc mm. [chuckles]

And I went into the room in the hospital

you go to jerk off.

It's the medical jerking-off room.

Every hospital

has a medical jerking-off room.

Okay? It's nondescript,

not a lot of signage.

Smaller than I think it should be.

Lots of crinkly tracing paper

under your butt.

And I'm sitting

in a medical jerking-off room.

By myself.

And there's grown men outside the door,

waiting for me to finish...

[crowd laughing]

...so they, too,

can use the medical jerking-off room

that we are sharing like a WeWork.

[crowd laughing]

And I'm in a medical

jerking-off room by myself.

And...

I couldn't go!

Okay? Sorry!

Sorry for not being a pervert who can just

jerk off in hospitals on demand.

I'm sorry!

Sorry for not being a sex offender

who can just jerk off

as people are dying above me and below me!

Sorry!

Sorry the thought of someone

getting defibrillated back into life

in the adjoining operating theaters,

as they code to death painfully,

and the families

crying in the waiting room

wasn't turning me on.

[crowd laughing]

So I couldn't go. I couldn't go.

So I just call 911, right?

I'm like... [chuckles]

[crowd laughing]

I'm like, "These people are forcing me

to medically ej*cul*te

in a completely sterile room."

Uh, I call the doctor back in,

and I'm like, "Doc, I can't go."

"Okay? I can't medically ej*cul*te

under these circumstances."

"The vibes are off."

"Let me go home. Let me go home

to medically ej*cul*te. Can I do that?"

And the doctor's like,

"Yeah, you can go home,

but, you know,

as soon as it comes out of your body,

it expires quicker

than avocados in Hawaii, alright?"

- "You've got..."

- [crowd laughing]

"You have, like, a 45-minute window

before there's like an exponential

decreasing probability of..." [gibberish]

I'm like, "Okay, fine."

"I'll go home, I'll medically ej*cul*te,

I'll come back in 45 minutes, no problem."

So I go home, open the front door,

ej*cul*te immediately.

Alright? This is...

[crowd laughing]

Alright? This is home court advantage.

I know where everything is,

I know what's behind me.

I look at the dripping garbage bag.

[crowd laughing]

It's like a Pavlovian response

at this point. Um...

I ej*cul*te into a cup.

Okay? It's a cup that they gave me.

It's not a f*cking coffee mug

from my kitchen.

[crowd laughing]

That says, "World's Best Dad" on it.

[chuckles] It's the cup

that they use... doctors give you

to test your pee for drugs.

It's got a really tight cap, right?

So, I ej*cul*te into the cup.

It keeps overflowing,

so I gotta keep, like, pouring it out.

[crowd laughing]

Just overwhelming amounts.

[crowd laughing]

It's like Ghostbusters 2 up in here.

[crowd laughing]

[chuckling] I fill it to the brim,

and then I scrape off the top, and then I...

And then I seal the cap

as tight as I can, right?

Get it really nice and tight.

And then I... I put it inside my T-shirt,

next to my skin, under my armpit.

Nice and snug.

Because the doctor told me to do that.

Because apparently, like the Titanic,

your body heat

will keep your people alive.

And then I run downstairs,

and I jump into a New York City taxi,

and I'm like, "Take me

to Langone Hospital, please. Hurry up."

The taxi driver is like, "What the f*ck

are you doing with your hand?"

"Are you okay?"

I'm like, "Oh, yeah, no, I'm fine."

"No, it's not me. It's my... my wife.

She's wait... A person... It's my jizz."

[crowd laughing]

And New York City taxis

have seen much worse.

So, the taxi driver was like,

"Oh, okay, cool."

"Thank you for using a cup."

[crowd laughing]

"Unlike the last two dudes

who were back there."

Just raw dogging at the JFK,

you know what I'm saying?

And, uh, we get to the...

we get to the hospital, right?

I open the taxi door.

I run into the hospital.

And because it's New York City,

someone on the sidewalk is like,

"Hey, yo! Hey, yo!"

"Were you that guy in Shang-Chi?"

[crowd laughing]

"Am I... Yes, I was a minor character

in the Marvel movie Shang-Chi,

not the main guy."

And the guy's like,

"Yo! Yo! Can I get a photo with you?"

And I'm like,

"Okay, sure."

[crowd laughing]

So, we take a photo like this.

So, someone on the internet

has a photo of me and this stranger.

And I'm doing this.

Like Napoleon.

If you ever come across this photo,

just know I am holding my own jizz.

[crowd laughing]

So feel free to tag it.

[crowd laughing]

He was very grateful.

He was like, "Aw, thanks so much, man."

And I was like, "No problem, man."

I shake his hand, right?

[crowd laughing]

Because I love meeting my fans.

And I run into the hospital, right?

Already hitting the 45-minute mark.

End of the fourth quarter.

There's no time left on the clock.

So I just take my jizz

and I just throw a buzzer-beater.

Right? The doctor, like,

catches my jizz, like...

[crowd laughing]

Like Odell Beckham.

She just, like, one hand, grabs it,

and, like, in the same motion,

without even putting it down,

she, like, alley-oops my jizz

into my wife's eggs, right?

Just takes it, and she goes,

"Boom, shaka-laka!"

And, uh, my sperm goes

into my wife's eggs,

and then nobody knows what happens

when sperm goes into the egg.

Nobody knows. It's a mystery.

It's a mystery of the universe.

Nobody knows.

When sperm goes into the egg,

it's unknowable. Ooh, it's...

It's like the event horizon

on a black hole.

No one can know what happens

when sperm goes into the egg.

Sometimes, nothing happens.

When sperm goes into the egg,

sometimes, it becomes a bubble tea.

[crowd laughing]

Nobody knows where bubble tea comes from.

It's "tapioca."

The sperm goes into the egg,

and then you shake it,

and you go to Vegas,

you throw it on the crap table...

And if you're lucky,

if you get a good dice roll, right?

It becomes a blastocyst.

That's what we call

future humans, blastocysts.

It becomes embryos.

The doctor, she'll take all the embryos

and she'll look at them

under the microscope,

and she'll grade the embryos.

Like cocaine.

[crowd laughing]

She'll be like, "Ooh, yeah, these ones?

These are A-grade embryos right here."

[snorting]

[crowd laughing]

"These ones, these are... these are

B-grade embryos, so... so I don't know."

[crowd laughing]

"These... These ones?

These are C-grade embryos..." [grumbles]

"Oh, and these ones?"

"Yeah, these... these are...

These are D-grade embryos."

"Yeah, these... These will storm

the Capitol someday." Alright? So...

[crowd laughing]

You don't want that.

And then...

[crowd cheering]

And then you have to, like,

draft pick your kids

based on scouting reports and analytics.

And you don't know.

You're just projecting data.

You just hope you're not throwing away

a Tom Brady in the 12th round

that's going to overcome the odds

and become the greatest of all time

because you can't measure

the human spirit.

And, uh, we all like to think

we're good people in this room,

but we're all picking

the A-grade embryos, okay?

No one here is not picking

your A-grade embryos if given a choice.

Even if you were a B-grade embryo.

[crowd laughing]

You would still pick your A-grade embryos.

Because you'll be like,

"I know what it's like."

"I'm not putting my kids

through this B-grade human existence,

with sweaty palms and sciatica."

[crowd laughing]

"Give me the A-grade sh*t.

Give me the best we could do."

"Give my kid a fighting chance."

And it got me thinking about the future

a little bit because I never wanted kids.

I never thought I would have kids.

The only thing I ever wanted to do

my whole life was this.

Stand-up comedy in America.

[crowd cheering]

It's the best.

Look at this. It's the best.

You are cheering because you know

this is way better than having kids.

[crowd laughing]

[crowd whooping]

So much more fun and lucrative.

Well, the blastocysts are real now.

There's eight of them

waiting for me in the cloud.

Um...

33% chance of successful

implantation with grade-A embryos.

So, I guess that makes me

a mass m*rder*r in Alabama.

It got me thinking about the future.

What kind of parent am I gonna be?

Am I gonna be

the same kind of parent my parents were,

or am I gonna be better

than my parents were?

Be more emotionally supportive

or whatever the f*ck

you're supposed to be now, and...

Thinking about it, turns out I'm gonna be

just as bad as my parents were.

I can... I can feel it.

I can feel it inside me.

I can feel the...

I can feel the Chinese inside me.

I can just feel that high expectation,

just low tolerance for excuses.

It's in here. It's right in here.

It's like the default app.

You know, you can't delete

the calculator app. There's no "X."

When you shake it, there's no "X."

You can move it off the home screen,

but it's still in the OS, embedded.

[crowd laughing]

In the operating system,

I can feel the Chinese.

If my blastocyst was real,

if it entered this reality,

and it turned to be

the cutest blastocyst ever.

"Oh my God, look at this blastocyst."

"Everybody, look.

Look at how beautiful this blastocyst is."

"I love you so much, blastocyst."

"I love you much more

than I thought I would." [kisses]

And your blastocyst

is hugging you back, right, they're like...

[in child's voice]

"I love you too, Daddy."

"Daddy, Daddy."

"When I grow up,

I want to be a stand-up comedian."

"Just like you."

[crowd laughing]

I just feel the Chinese coming on, right?

- I just...

- [crowd laughing]

You take your glasses off

like Hitler in the bunker.

[crowd laughing]

"Stand-up comedy?

Are you out of your f*cking mind?!"

[crowd laughing]

"That's not even a real job!"

"What do you think is gonna happen?"

"Just gonna run around America

and tell jokes to strangers

who don't give a f*ck

about your mental health?"

"And even if you do somehow

manage to overcome the odds,

and make it to even

a semi-professional level

as a stand-up comedian,

do you think there's any chance in hell

you'll be funnier than me?!"

[crowd laughing]

[applause]

[crowd cheering]

"Dad is a borderline arena act

in some markets!"

"Have you seen my IMDb page?"

"I'm in everything!

I will f*cking crush your career!"

Osoto gari!

"Your mother and I just spent a fortune

to make an A-grade blastocyst

for them to become a B-grade comedian."

"I will never watch anything you do."

"Go to law school!"

[crowd laughing]

[crowd cheering]

Is what my father said to me.

[crowd laughing]

I do think it's tough

for straight men in 2024

to sincerely look up

self-improvement on the internet

without five weeks later

storming the Capitol, okay?

That men's self-help YouTube algorithm

is very unkind to straight men right now.

Okay? I'm not saying

it's the biggest problem in the world.

Clearly.

But it is a problem, okay?

Because men were genetically predisposed

to seek self-improvement.

Okay? We're trying

to be better people every day.

Believe it or not, women.

[crowd laughing]

Once we hit a certain age, okay?

Usually we die before then.

Through suicide or environmental factors.

BMX biking, dietary choices...

But if you can live long enough as a man,

you hit this age where suddenly

you become very introspective, okay?

You start seeking guidance

from outside sources.

You start looking at watches.

Like... Like every man in this room has

or will at some point.

We've all been there.

Guys, we've all done this.

We've all looked in the mirror

at some point in our lives.

And we've been like,

"What a f*cking piece of sh*t."

[crowd laughing]

"I f*cking hate this loser."

"Look at this loser."

"f*ck this loser. I hate this person."

"I need to be a better person."

"Let me start by getting fit."

[crowd laughing]

[woman screams]

"Let me work on my health."

"That seems like a logical place

to start my journey."

"Let me control

what I can control in here."

So what do you do as a man?

You go on YouTube, right?

You look up how to lift weights.

Right? You press "Enter."

You click on the first video.

It's some guy

doing kettlebell swings, right?

He'll teach you how to lock your core

so you don't break your f*cking spine.

And then you do that for two days.

- You feel pretty good about yourself.

- [man] Whoo!

Right? And on the third day,

the same YouTube channel

has a new video notification alert,

The men are like, "What's this new video

from kettlebell-swinging guy?"

"What could he be doing in his new video?"

In the video, the kettlebell-swinging guy,

he's doing the new kettlebell exercise.

"The lawnmower."

He's doing that. And then,

like 30 seconds into the video,

he just, suddenly, just stops.

And he looks really sad.

And he puts the kettlebell down.

And he looks straight into the camera.

And he's like,

"Yo, guys, just real talk

for a second, all right?" [sniffles]

"Kettlebells are great,

but I just want you guys to know

that a healthy body

starts with a healthy mind."

[crowd laughing]

And all the men watching this are like,

"Yeah." [sniffles]

"Yeah, that makes sense."

"That feels right, in here."

"Tell me more, kettlebell-swinging guy."

[crowd laughing]

"What other advice do you have

for all areas of my life?"

"Including my relationships

and financial investments."

"Please give me guidance,

kettlebell-swinging guy."

So what do you do?

You watch his next video on autoplay.

Then you watch his next video.

Here comes the YouTube algorithm

with a suggested video.

And here comes another suggested video.

And a week later,

Jordan Peterson is telling you

that women use makeup to control men.

[crowd laughing]

Five weeks later, you're storming

the Capitol dressed like a buffalo.

[crowd laughing]

[applause]

[crowd cheering]

That's a very realistic

sequence of events, by the way.

That's not even an exaggerated timeline.

Every man in this room

has lost a buddy to the algorithm.

We all know someone

who lost their f*cking mind

on that men's self-help,

Andrew Tate masculinity,

YouTube self-help algorithm.

If you don't know anyone

who lost their mind...

[crowd laughing]

...you're the one who lost their mind.

You're currently

in an echo chamber of assholes.

'Cause real friends tell you

when you're losing your mind.

It's very tragic.

All these men who are trying

to be better people,

and they're seeking guidance.

But that YouTube feedback algorithm loop

just leads them to be

the worst version of themselves.

There's tragedy in that.

Like all those people.

They were just trying to lift weights.

[crowd laughing]

They weren't trying

to cause an insurrection.

They didn't even know

what that word meant.

They were just trying to do this.

They're trying to do this.

They didn't know what angle

their forearm was supposed to be

vis--vis their torso, right?

Is it 90 degrees or 45 degrees?

Like, is that a different exercise

or is that the same reps when you...?

They Googled it one time,

and then, five weeks later,

you're taking a sh*t

on Nancy Pelosi's desk.

[crowd laughing]

And the US Marshals

are garnishing your wages.

Because you take one wrong turn,

and life moves pretty quick!

I'm not saying, as a man, don't take

responsibility for your own actions.

Okay? I'm just saying

that YouTube algorithm

is very alluring to straight guys.

It... It sucks men in in a way

that I don't think women understand.

It really preys on that men's need

to seek guidance from somewhere.

It's very hard to resist.

It just draws... draws you in.

That's why f*cking Mark Zuckerberg is

trying to MMA fight Elon Musk right now.

[crowd laughing]

That guy fell for his own algorithm.

Do you understand?

Mark Zuckerberg

was just some f*cking nerd.

And for, like, 20 years now,

he's just been looking at our data, right?

Jerking off every single day.

Just looking at our data, jerking off.

Money piling up. Billions of dollars.

Data. Jerking off.

Money, money, jerking off, data.

For 20 years, that loop.

And who knew after two decades of that,

one day, he just looked at so much data,

he was like, "Oh sh*t, oh sh*t."

He fell into it.

Now he's trying to MMA-fight Elon Musk.

That guy jerked off

and came on his own face.

[crowd laughing]

Like, it's out of control.

Zuckerberg is a billionaire

who has every material need

you could want in this reality.

And he invented that sh*t,

and he still fell for it.

What hope does the average man

in America have?

Just walking... Just waddling

down the street

looking... looking for a taco on his phone.

He's gonna get sucked into his phone.

He has no chance.

That f*cking guy has no chance.

Because even the good guys in this room...

we're all, like, on a razor's edge

to being a piece of sh*t, okay?

[crowd laughing]

That margin between a good guy

and a piece of sh*t is razor-thin.

I gotta tell you.

If you have the means, every day is

just a battle to stay on that nice edge.

And you know what?

An Instagram post

could push it either way!

[crowd laughing]

Okay? It depends on the post.

Was it cute animals or was it boobs?

[crowd laughing]

That's gonna determine your integrity

for the next six hours.

I do think, as a society, we need to, uh,

do a better job of identifying,

like, when we have a disagreement

with someone who's

genuinely trying to have

a good-faith discussion

to reach higher understanding,

and who's just talking sh*t.

We are spending too much time

on the people who are just talking sh*t,

and we're not spending enough time

on the people who are genuinely

trying to have difficult conversations

about difficult topics.

Like, for example,

me, right now,

- I'm just talking sh*t, okay?

- [crowd laughing]

This is one-way sh*t-talking.

I don't care about any of your opinions.

Do not send me any of them. I do not care.

You paid for me.

I didn't pay a cent for any of you, okay?

[crowd laughing]

[crowd cheering]

Free market capitalism

has determined the direction

of this sh*t-talking session.

If you don't like it,

take it out on Adam Smith.

But if I was having a conversation

with someone I disagree with,

in good faith,

I would probably start that conversation

with what we do agree with.

That'd be a logical place

to start a difficult conversation.

For example, MAGA.

Make America Great Again.

They have a point.

America's not doing so great right now.

Right? Our kids' math scores are down.

[crowd laughing]

Our children's science scores are down.

When judged according

to international metrics, uh,

healthcare systems not doing so great.

Wealth gap disparities

increasing exponentially.

There was an implied promise

to a generation of Americans

that if you do certain things, work hard,

go to college, be a good person,

you would have certain outcomes.

And those outcomes didn't materialize

for the majority of people

because baby boomers entrenched

in decision-making positions

lowered the capital gains tax...

[crowd laughing]

...so that their net worth

essentially compounds year after year.

In post-World w*r II, US leadership

traded the domestic manufacturing industry

for National Security

by making the US dollar

the default international trade currency,

which gave America the ability to impose

economic sanctions on foreign countries

to a US financial banking system,

but consequently increased the value

of the US dollar astronomically,

which made it impossible for anyone

to manufacture anything in America.

[inhales deeply]

Although the logic at the time...

[crowd laughing]

...was that Americans

were supposed to upskill en masse,

away from the menial manufacturing jobs,

but everyone here's too much

of a dumbass to stay school,

so we just traded domestic manufacturing

to Asia and the rest of the world

at the expense of working-class families.

But if you don't read enough...

[crowd laughing]

...it comes out as, "Let's go, Brandon!"

[crowd laughing]

And it's like, you have a point,

but you don't have the vocabulary

to describe your reality

because you didn't read enough.

You gotta keep reading beyond the hashtag.

There's a book behind the word.

You gotta keep going.

You can go at your own pace,

but you gotta finish the required reading.

Otherwise, we can't have a conversation.

We're all catching up to each other.

I'm friends with MAGA.

I'm friends with the MAGAs.

- Some of them are my good friends.

- [man] Whoo!

Yeah.

Hawaii MAGA.

[crowd laughing]

The friendliest of all MAGA.

[crowd laughing]

Aloha MAGA.

They're in Hawaii right now,

Making Aloha Great Again.

I became friends with them

because I filmed two seasons

of a TV show in Hawaii,

Doogie Kameloha, on Disney+.

[crowd cheering]

[applause]

MAGA Hawaii welcomed me into their homes.

"Ronny, please, come over.

Please, we're having a barbecue."

"We'd love you to meet the family,

meet the ohana, please."

"We'd love to have you over."

So gracious. You show up,

they're so warm and welcoming.

"Thanks for coming.

Take whatever you want."

"There's some Kalua pork,

there's some loco mocos, hot dogs."

"Hey. Here. Here."

"Touch my g*n."

[crowd laughing]

"Touch it. Just touch... Just take it."

I'm always like, "I... I don't want

to touch any of these g*ns, okay?"

"I don't know where they've been.

I don't know where they're going."

"I don't have time in my schedule

to attend depositions."

[crowd laughing]

"Just give me the loco moco."

[crowd laughing]

Very passionate people, my MAGA friends.

And I respect their passion

to some extent.

I do. They're like, "I love America.

I would die for this country."

And I believe them.

I believe they love America,

and I believe they would die

for this country, which is very admirable.

But it's like, man, you are willing

to die for your country.

Why aren't you willing to learn math?

[crowd laughing]

Also for your country, like...

Like, do both for your country.

I know you wanna die for your country,

but we're losing the engineering jobs

to Asia right now.

So if you... We need

less people to die for their country.

We need more people to do

their homework for their country.

Like, do your homework for your country.

Like, actually sit down

and show the work, and, like, do the...

That's a more efficient way

to show your patriotism.

If you take that "I want to die" energy

and you put it into homework,

you will f*cking top the school,

I'm telling you.

It's...

Sky's the limit.

[crowd cheering]

Dude, you'll... you'll solve

a lot of problems,

you'll create a lot of jobs,

you'll increase the GDP.

Just do... do your homework

for your country.

"I'd rather die!"

[crowd laughing]

I... I thought so. I thought that might be...

I thought that might be the case.

Dying's easy, math is hard.

[crowd laughing]

These quadratic equations

making me suicidal.

Uh, we try not to talk about politics,

my MAGA friends and I,

out of mutual respect.

Inevitably, it comes up.

Some stuff I'm wrong about,

some stuff they're right about,

but sometimes, like,

their messaging is so convoluted.

Like, I can't get

to what their core issue actually is,

because their surface messaging

is so chaotic.

Like, sometimes they're like,

"Ronny, China caused COVID,

but COVID isn't real."

[crowd laughing]

So, is it fine then?

Does it mean it's fine?

I don't know how to feel about it now.

'Cause one minus one is zero.

I don't know what to tell you. The...

The math analogy works for concepts,

not just numbers, you can...

"X" is anything.

Why are you yelling at me about China?

Always yelling at me about China.

"China is doing this. China did

a weather balloon, with a camera."

"China's got

an artificial island in the Pacific

doubling as an aircraft carrier base."

"China's doing TikTok.

Why is China doing TikTok?!"

I don't know.

[crowd laughing]

I'm not from China.

I'm from Malaysia. [scoffs]

I'm from Malaysia, not China.

I'm... I'm third-generation

Chinese Malaysian.

Malaysia.

You know Michelle Yeoh?

Oscar winner? Malaysia?

Yeah, that's Malaysia.

Sama-sama. Malaysia.

Saya anak Malaysia. Malaysia.

Malaysia, not China. Malaysia.

We are the ones who lost the plane.

[crowd laughing]

Okay?

You guys remember that?

Did you see the documentary on Netflix,

suggested after my special?

- You guys see that? That was us.

- [crowd laughing]

That was us.

We're the "lose the plane" people.

Okay? We're not the human rights

whatever... I don't know... TikTok...

I don't know what that is, okay?

We're the... [mimics plane engine]

"Ah! Where is it?! Where the f*ck is it?!"

That's us.

Uh, my... my MAGA friends all hate US tax.

That's like a universal party platform.

There's different types of MAGA, right?

There's, like, MAGA light,

MAGA concentrated, but, like...

Right, it's unfair to group them

under one banner,

but one uniting party principle is,

"Love America, f*ck US tax."

And I get it.

I also hate US tax

now that I'm in the highest bracket.

[crowd laughing]

Yeah, I'm MAGA with that. f*ck US tax.

Yeah, f*ck American tax.

Feels good to say it.

Like the words give you power, right?

f*ck US tax.

f*ck American Tax.

You like it? You like it when I say it?

When this f*cking foreigner says it?

You like that? f*ck US tax. You like that?

You like it when this accent says that?

f*ck American tax. You like that?

You don't see a discrepancy in energy?

"Love America, USA, USA."

"f*ck US tax."

Put politics aside for just three seconds.

Okay? If it's even possible.

Just for three seconds,

just consider this concept in a vacuum.

Just as an academic exercise, okay?

When you love something,

you give it money.

[crowd laughing]

Right? Like that's one

of the primary ways we show love

for individuals, organizations,

ideas on Kickstarter,

sports teams...

We go like, "Yeah, we give it money."

So when you go, "Love America, USA, USA."

"f*ck US tax." So what are you saying?

You love America so much,

you want it to be poor?

You want your country to be poor?

You want it to be a beggar on the street.

A street beggar. You want your country

to be a street beggar on the street?

I love my mom.

Sometimes I give my mom money.

[crowd laughing]

- Give your mom money sometimes.

- [man] Yeah!

Look how alien this concept is

to white people.

[crowd laughing]

[applause]

Just...

silence.

[crowd laughing]

Give your mom money sometimes.

"For what?!"

[crowd laughing]

Because she's your Ma. [chuckles]

And you love her, right?

She loves you back, so f*cking

cut her off a piece every once in a while.

Probably tore stuff giving birth to you,

cut her a piece of the pie.

Arbitrarily, even. Just give a...

I'm sure your mother would appreciate it.

No matter who your mom is,

how self-accomplished she is,

I'm sure your mom could use it.

Fix the driveway,

invest in infrastructure. Something.

[crowd laughing]

Sometimes Americans treat their country

the way they treat their parents.

[indistinct chatter from crowd]

Yeah.

[crowd laughing]

"I love my mom.

I love my mom. I would die for my mom."

"But f*ck her, she made her choices."

[crowd laughing]

I love being in America.

I do. I love being here.

I had my options. I came here.

I love being in America

because this is the country

that puts show business above everything.

And I am in the business of show business.

So naturally,

I'm gonna come here and do it.

I do this in America, "f*ck America.

f*ck the president. f*ck US tax,"

money, money just comes into...

[crowd laughing]

"f*ck the president."

"He's too old. f*ck this president."

The money comes in.

Money just comes in.

Like printing money.

I do this in Malaysia,

same... same words, same... same clothing,

same haircut,

facing the same direction, in Malaysia?

Jail.

[crowd laughing]

Like, the arbitrage value

is out of control.

Same product in different loc...

Obviously, I'll do this here.

Why the f*ck would I do it anywhere else?

It's the best.

I think, uh, sometimes people forget

I'm a first-generation immigrant here.

Because my second-generation

or later American friends,

like, their parents were immigrants.

And the way they talk

about their parents is so disrespectful.

And they forget, like,

I'm also an immigrant.

They'll be like, "You know my parents?

They're immigrants."

"You know immigrants. They're so cheap."

[crowd laughing]

Like, "Don't come over. My family's

over this weekend. My parents are here."

"My parents are immigrants.

You know immigrants. Ugh!"

"They're so cheap."

Yo, I want to defend

immigrants here for a second, all right?

f*ck that sh*t.

Yeah, my mom lives in Singapore.

She is not an immigrant.

She is still extremely cheap.

[crowd laughing]

Okay? Being cheap

is not an immigrant thing.

It's genetic.

[crowd laughing]

Cheap people are cheap.

They're not choosing to be cheap.

It's just inside, it's not a choice.

Chinese baby boomers are cheap

'cause they don't know how to have fun.

They haven't had fun in, like, 50 years.

They, like, forgot the energy of fun.

Like, of all the Asians right now

in the Asian fun hierarchy,

from most fun to least fun,

Chinese baby boomers,

least fun of all the Asians right now.

I can say this. I'm Chinese, okay?

You don't f*cking say it.

[crowd laughing]

This is our "N" word.

You don't f*cking say it. I say it.

You don't f*cking say it.

Least fun... You don't f*cking say it.

Least fun of all the Asians,

Chinese baby boomers.

Right now, of all the Asians,

most fun Asians, uh, the Koreans, okay?

You gotta give it up for the Koreans.

[crowd cheering]

[crowd laughing]

Give it up for the Koreans.

You gotta tip your cap and respect

the back-to-back championships

of the modern-day Koreans

just k*lling it with the fun

and the pop culture.

They're... Everyone's...

They've got Blackpink.

They got music. They got BTS.

[crowd cheering]

Dude, BTS is right now in the army

fighting Kim Jong-un.

[crowd laughing]

Do you understand?

BTS is at the DMZ right now, just going...

[singsongs pop beat playfully]

[mimics machine g*n]

[crowd laughing]

Just an unstoppable force

of entertainment.

[chuckling] Taking down

countries and dictatorships.

They got, uh... Koreans got, uh,

the Parasite movie, Oscar-winning.

They got Past Lives.

They got, uh... Crash Landing on You.

[crowd cheering]

Just dominating

the Netflix home page of white people.

[crowd laughing]

Never thought I'd see the day

when white people's homepage

is full of K-drama. Just binging.

Non-stop. They got, uh, Squid Game.

Dude, Koreans have more fun

dying in Squid Game

than Chinese people have at comedy shows.

Chinese people at comedy shows,

they're looking at their phone.

"Do I have to look up?"

"He's here?

Okay, I'm gonna video for six minutes."

Full flash video. This is...

This is how I live in the moment

as a Chinese person.

Koreans, most fun.

- Uh, Filipinos know how to have fun.

- [crowd cheering]

Yeah, they love having fun, uh...

Vietnamese people know how to have fun.

Cambodians know how to have fun.

Hmong people know how to have fun.

Even Japanese know how to have fun.

In a reserved way.

[crowd cheering]

Outwardly stoic.

Inside, just anime.

[crowd laughing]

Outside, unreadable.

Inside, just the intro to Sailor Moon.

- Right? Just...

- [crowd laughing]

[humming the intro to Sailor Moon]

Outside is just, "Ohayo gozaimasu."

[crowd laughing]

Japanese people have so much fun

sometimes they go straight back to work.

[crowd laughing]

"You're not gonna change your suit?

Just straight into the office? Alright."

[chuckles] Uh...

Everyone knows Chinese baby boomers,

least fun of all the Asians.

Because for Chinese baby boomers,

their primary directive in life is,

"Do not get scammed."

That's like the overriding directive that

informs the entire decision-making tree.

RoboCop, primary directive,

"Do not get scammed."

"Do not arrest OCP executive."

"Do not get scammed."

And for Chinese baby boomers,

there's no value proposition, okay?

It's just pure price sensitivity.

That means any money outgoing is a scam.

[crowd laughing]

"If money leaves my possession,

that was a scam!"

[crowd laughing]

So the whole time, they're just tensed up,

they're just looking for scams

when they go out.

They're just like...

They can't even relax. "Scam's coming!"

It'll be a two-drink minimum over here.

Parking guys, tip...

[grumbling] Tensing up.

Meanwhile, Koreans in the back

just having fun.

[crowd laughing]

Filipinos dancing like...

Chinese baby boomers just tensed up.

The further they get from their house,

as distance X increases,

they know the fees

will increase and so the ex...

The expenditures are gonna increase,

so they keep tensing up.

The further they get,

until eventually, like,

their whole body tenses up

into, like, a "C," right?

Like a "C" for Chinese.

[crowd laughing]

And then, in the back you're like,

"Go, go, have fun! Have fun!"

They just refuse to have fun.

Like, my mom came and visited me

in New York City.

Her only son, she came to New York City.

New York City is the kind of city where,

as soon as you open your front door,

it's like $1.50.

Like, if you touch your door knob,

it's like, Apple Pay $1.50, just going...

It goes into the universe.

My mom came in

and approached the front door in New York.

She's like in the back of the apartment,

"I'm good, I don't need

to leave the house today."

My mom isn't even scared of Asian hate.

She's more scared of inflation.

[crowd laughing]

She can't believe

the prices of things anymore.

You take her out to Central Park.

"Let's go to Central Park, it's free."

"Look how beautiful

New York is in autumn. Look at this."

"Why are these hot dogs five dollars?

It's like, "No, this..."

"The price is right.

No one is scamming you."

"That's the correct

amount of money to pay for that."

"You haven't been out of the house

in 50 years. That number is correct."

"That's how much things cost

after baby boomers destroyed

the global financial economy in 2010

pursuing subprime mortgages, okay?"

That's... That's...

If anything, you scammed yourself.

That's you scamming yourself.

Yeah, "You played yourself." DJ Khaled.

[crowd laughing]

My mom came to visit me in Hawaii.

Her first time in Hawaii.

And if you know Hawaii,

locals and the Hawaiians here,

the least scammy culture on the planet.

Could not be more generous as a community.

You get so much more than you give

when you're on the islands of Hawaii.

And, uh, my mom comes, and she lands,

and she gets to the hotel,

and they welcome her,

"Aloha. Welcome to Hawaii."

And they put a lei over her,

like a ring of flowers.

They put it over her,

and my mom does this.

[crowd laughing]

"I'm not paying for that."

[crowd laughing]

And I'm like, "You can't do that, Mom."

"They're not trying to trick you

into buying something."

"They're trying to welcome you

to their homeland."

"They're not tricking you into buying

just 'cause you touched it."

"This isn't Thailand. Just put on..."

[crowd laughing]

"Put on the lei, you're embarrassing me

in front of the Hawaiians!"

Mahalo.

[crowd laughing]

[applause]

[crowd cheering]

These Chinese baby boomers,

most scared of being scammed in real life,

the first to get scammed on the internet.

For people who live in fear

their entire lives, extremely gullible.

Because these baby boomers,

they don't have the... they don't have

the antibodies to deal with the internet.

Completely clueless when they go on now.

Like, watching baby boomers

go on the internet now

is like watching babies

wandering into the kitchen by themselves,

just looking for cookies

on the kitchen countertop, just like...

Running their hands blindly

on the kitchen countertop.

Pulling down knives. Kitchen knives

coming straight down into their eyeballs,

into, like, the soft part of their skull.

They go in the kitchen,

they open the oven, they turn it on.

They stick their head inside.

They're like, "Any pictures

of my grandkids in here?"

"Is this link safe to click on?

Is this link safe to click on?"

"Is this link safe to click on?"

Just falling for every basic b*tch

internet scam possible.

These f*cking baby boomers

tumbling into internet scams

like pandas rolling down a hill.

[crowd laughing]

Just jujitsu-rolling

into scams every single day.

Loving scams. "Oh, what do you want?

20 Target gift cards?"

"Yeah, sounds like a legitimate way to pay

for antivirus software on my phone."

"Everybody, look. Look at this link.

Look, there's a..."

"'What's the one trick your doctor

doesn't want you to know?'"

"Okay, I'll click on that link."

"I knew it.

I knew my doctor was scamming me!"

"That was a trick

he didn't want me to know."

"I'm gonna invalidate his medical degree

with one click right now!" [grunts]

"This is not the scam.

My doctor is the scam. Let me..."

[grunts] Click on this...

These f*cking internet idiot savants

who can't remember

a single g*dd*mn password,

but for some reason, can make

any piece of misinformation go viral.

Like a Russian cyber army,

just spreading misinformation

around the world

in family group WhatsApp chats.

Everywhere. "Everybody,

just look at this article. Is this real?"

"Look at it. Is this real?"

It's how they fact-check! They spread it.

"Look at this, this is a real...?

Everybody, weigh in."

"I'm not saying a hair dryer

in your mouth will k*ll COVID."

"Okay? But what?

You can't ask questions anymore?"

"Look at this article from cnn-n-n-n.ru."

"Quick, send it to your uncle,

send it to your..."

"Send it to our whole family tree.

Everybody needs to see this."

Has there ever been

a dumber generation of idiots

more susceptible to fake news

than these f*cking baby boomers

literally believing

everything they see on the internet?

I get the very reasonable argument

that every generation of human

is going to be naturally

a little bit smarter than the last,

due to the exponential

technology growth curve, okay?

But this has got to be

the biggest gap in human history!

The information asymmetry right now

is just out of control.

You literally have people

in Honolulu right now

auto-driving their Tesla Cybertrucks

as they vape out the window,

and their phone AI

is trading cryptocurrency.

Meanwhile, you have baby boomers,

they can't even right-click.

[crowd laughing]

They can't even right-click.

"There's one button!

How do you right-click on one button?!"

It's scary.

They don't know what's real anymore.

"Hey, Ronny. Look at this photo

of Bigfoot shopping at Whole Foods."

[crowd laughing]

"Bigfoot is real now!"

"Look, there's an image of him

buying kombucha at Whole Foods."

"What technology exists

that can fake images?"

I'm like, "Mom, that's not real.

Stop sending it around. It's not real."

"How do you know?"

They always get so indignant about it.

Like, "How do you know

that it's not real?"

"How did you know that?"

Because the font, the font is off

and the resolution of the image is blurry,

and that lighting state

doesn't make sense for that image!

And that's not standard dimensions

for a news article.

I can't give you this knowledge.

It's like Malcolm Gladwell's Blink!

I've seen so much sh*t on the internet,

my brain instantly filters it.

You'll never have this skill set,

so just stay off the internet!

This world is not for you anymore!

Stop making decisions!

[crowd cheering and clapping]

But anyway, respect your elders.

[crowd laughing]

It's a Confucian value.

Maybe if you give your mom some money,

she wouldn't get scammed so much.

Yeah, well...

Think about the correlation

between those two phenomena.

Uh...

People always ask me, like,

"Why do you sh*t on your mom for money?"

"Why don't you sh*t on your dad

for money?"

Alright, uh... [chuckles]

No, I don't talk about my dad because, uh,

my dad has no context for show business.

Like, we grew up in Malaysia.

Like, his families

are rubber tappers in Malaysia.

My aunts and uncles are

still in Sitiawan in Malaysia

right now tapping rubber.

They have no context for show business.

Very smart people,

but they don't know this world.

My dad, he was the first guy in his family

to get a college education.

He went to Manchester College,

which has merged with the University

of Southern New Hampshire.

He got his master's of economics there.

Put himself through it. Very smart guy.

And he was a good immigrant.

He came to America, to New Hampshire,

to get his education,

and when he graduated,

he went back to Malaysia.

He didn't take anyone's job, he left.

[crowd laughing]

And my dad had the vision

to see what I didn't see.

He knew he had a ceiling on him,

because of the way he thinks and talks,

and he went back to Malaysia.

And he was right! For him.

He went back.

It was the right choice for him.

He became a very successful

corporate executive.

Uh, he retired to a farm

in Johor Bahru, Malaysia.

Love farming. He retired to a farm.

That's how much this guy loved it,

but he had no context for show business,

so he wouldn't understand

anything I'm doing.

Like, he wouldn't understand

what I'm doing in Godzilla vs. Kong.

He'd be like,

"Why don't you just run that way?"

[crowd laughing]

"Dad, I don't control the edit. Okay?"

"I'm just Honolulu Chinatown

shopkeeper No. 3 in this..."

"In this epic clash of titans

between the giant lizard

and the giant gorilla, okay?"

"I'm just connecting Act 1 to Act 2,

I don't have a say in how this plays out."

Because of that, I stopped

telling him about what I was doing.

I felt he wouldn't get it,

and he stopped asking me.

So I didn't tell him

I got hired on The Daily Show.

He found out the way all parents find out

about their kids' accolades,

through a local newspaper.

So, one day, the local paper reported

that I got hired on The Daily Show,

and he called me immediately. He was like,

Ronny, what's this I hear about you

joining "The Everyday Show"?

And I was like,

"Oh no, it's The Daily Show."

"I joined like two years ago, Dad."

He was like, "Oh, okay.

Well, what's The Daily Show?"

I'm like, "It's just like another

late-night American talk show."

"They kind of invented

modern American satire."

And... [clicks tongue]

And, uh, my dad was like,

"Oh, that's cool. Are you the host?"

I'm like, "No, I'm a correspondent."

He was like, "What is that?

What's a correspondent?"

I'm like, "Yeah, correspondent is,

I help the host with comedy segments."

And he was like, "Oh, okay."

"Hey, Mei! He's just a sidekick."

[crowd laughing]

And so he had, like, no context

for what was a win,

what was a milestone in this industry.

And so, I stopped telling him,

and he stopped asking me.

And I didn't need that from him.

We... We were totally fine.

We'd talk about other stuff.

Not about work.

We weren't fighting. It was all good.

Uh, and he passed away

very suddenly, uh, in 2018.

He died on Christmas Eve.

Died on his farm, like,

no warning, no explanation.

He just left one day. He left so suddenly,

we had to go back to handle his estate.

If anyone here has been

so unfortunate to be in that position,

when you have to handle

someone else's estate,

it means that they left so abruptly

that other people had to come in

and close the administrative loops

in their life.

And so it's me, my wife, my sister,

brother-in-law, went back to Johor Bahru,

and part of me

trying to figure out his estate was

I had to hack into his laptop

just to figure out

what banks he was using.

So, his laptop was right

on the kitchen table where he left it,

and I opened it up,

and it's password-protected,

and I know this guy so well, I'm like,

"His password is going to be

the birthday of his favorite child."

So...

[crowd laughing]

...I type in my sister's birthday,

and spot on.

Spot on. It was my sister's birthday.

[crowd laughing]

As it should be. She's, like,

an anesthesiologist in Australia.

She's like way more respectable

person than me,

actually saving lives like a good person.

Contributing back to society,

not like this f*cking as*h*le. I get in...

[chuckles] I get in trouble

on the internet

for sh*t I said two years ago,

every six weeks.

So it should be her.

She should be the favorite.

So, I log into his computer,

I open his web browser,

I look at his browsing history,

and the whole time, I'm like,

"Please don't let me find my dad's porn."

"Please don't let me find

what positions my dad was into."

"Even if it was just missionary,

I wouldn't be able to handle it."

"I'm gonna have to burn this laptop."

For real Chinese people,

when we burn things,

it goes to our ancestors,

and then my granddad is gonna see it,

and it's like, I don't...

I don't want that for them. I'll be fine,

but they're gonna have an awkward time.

I'm considerate like that, uh...

So I open the web browser,

look at his history,

and way to go, Dad, no porn.

What a clean-cut guy. No porn.

He only went on the internet twice a day.

Like clockwork. 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.

Like the farmer that he was.

And every time he went on the internet,

he'd only go to two websites each time.

So, the first website he'd go to

was a local news website,

and the second website he'd go to

twice a day, every single day,

was my Twitter page.

[crowd] Aw...

So, he'd be reloading my Twitter page

twice a day just to see what I was doing.

And I post stuff like,

"Hey, Honolulu, Hawaii,

I sold out five shows, uh, this week,

why's there so many homeless people here?"

I'd post stuff like that.

[crowd laughing]

And, uh...

he would read that, and then he'd be like...

I assume, he'd be like,

"Oh, Ronny's doing okay."

"He's in Hawaii, he sold out some shows,

and oh, I guess there's a lot

of homeless people in Hawaii."

Uh, and, um, that was his quiet way

of keeping up with me.

He never told me that,

and I never knew that,

and we never discussed it,

um, which is a very nice sentiment.

Unfortunately, uh, as best as I can tell,

this is the last tweet

my dad read of mine.

[crowd laughing]

So, as best as I can tell,

forensically,

based on internet browsing timestamps,

the last tweet my dad read of mine,

and quite possibly,

the last thing he ever read

before he died on his farm,

was me posting on Twitter,

"If you're a baby boomer on Twitter,

I already know you're a f*cking loser."

[crowd laughing]

Now, obviously,

this was not directed towards him.

I didn't even know he had Twitter.

I didn't even know

he knew what Twitter was.

But I stand by the statement.

[crowd laughing]

[applause]

And I know that's kind

of a weird way to end the show, but, um...

[crowd laughing]

[chuckles]

...if it's any solace, uh,

this was his phone when he died.

[crowd] Aw!

That was his, uh, wallpaper

and his screensaver.

And... [chuckles] And I didn't even know.

And it's a photo

of me and my wife, and we're in Hawaii.

And I'm wearing two leis

'cause my mom threw one off

and I put it on.

[crowd laughing]

And, uh, I didn't know that this was

his screensaver and his wallpaper.

Uh, and...

[applause]

Uh...

I... I like to...

I like to think that, uh, that is

the last image he saw of me.

That's what he remembered me by

when he left.

And, uh, I also would

like to tell my sister,

I won!

- [crowd laughing]

- I won! It was me!

It was me!

You guys have been great.

Thanks for coming out, Honolulu.

- [crowd cheering]

- [gentle Hawaiian music playing]

[cheering continues]

[gentle Hawaiian music continues playing]

[music fades]
