And I think there's something incredibly timely about that and incredibly relatable to anyone who's growing up. Because we're all growing up. We're all constantly evolving.

I guess...on one hand, I spent way too much time watching science fiction and reading science fiction when I was growing up.

I played a million different sports when I was growing up. I started when I was probably five or six, and we'd just go from activity to activity to activity.
