I tear everything I say apart. Everything I do, I just, I analyze and my mind kind of holds on to
00:07
oh I said this or did this or um so but then there's a part of me that you know
00:13
was pretty okay and confident.
00:30
For me to read in the press about a toxic work environment.
00:52
I didn't want to tell my mother because I was protecting her and I knew that that would ruin
00:57
her happiness.
01:09
My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was 60.
01:12
She's 97 today and we don't know where the hell she is.
01:15
Susan, I'm gay.
01:37
When everything came crashing to a halt three months or so after she came out,
01:42
um it was just a very clear, very strong message sent by the TV industry that
01:49
it wasn't going to tolerate gay people.
02:06
I was on the road doing stand-up trying to have a career again because I had lost my sitcom and
02:11
I had nothing going on and he called me and said I wrote this thing, I have you in mind and
02:16
you ramble and that's what you do in your work and so you know I just got really lucky.
02:32
You got a problem buddy? Huh? Huh? Do you? Do you? Do you?
02:35
This is our very, very first show and you are my very first audience.
02:52
I think that my entire career has been an adventure and it's a ride that
02:58
I never could have predicted, I never would have expected it to go in the places that it's gone.
03:06
It's easy to forget now just how much courage was required for Ellen to come out on the most
03:25
public of stages almost 20 years ago. Just how important it was not just to the LGBT community
03:33
but for all of us to see somebody so full of kindness and light, somebody we liked so much,
03:39
somebody who could be our neighbor or our colleague or our sister challenge our own assumptions.
04:03
It did feel very misogynistic. I'd never had any complaints about anything for 17 years.
04:33
Today I am announcing that next season, season 19, is going to be my last season.
