If you're 40 years old and you've never had a failure, you've been deprived.

I've been so blessed to work with the people I have.
I don't have 'The Jerry Springer Show'. I just got 'Family Feud', but some of them families, when they lose, man, they have some real conversations with each other back behind that wall, but I've never been involved in any of them.
