![I remember before I did my HBO special, Chris [Rock] screamed at me - in a loving way, but still. He was like, "You need to do 200 shows in a row and a month straight on the road before you even think about recording a special!" And I had literally booked two weeks on the road and then went right into the recording. It put me in a panic, but it also made me work harder and made me realize that everyone works differently, and that's okay.](/assets/img/quote-photos/i-remember-before-i-did-my-hbo-special-chris-rock-screamed-at-me-in-a-loving.jpg)
