home research goes-on
What appealed to me was the intimacy of the medium, the fact that I was doing it from my home, and the fact that I wanted to talk. I was not there to plug things. I don't do a hell of a lot of research. I go on a sort of kindred-spirit bonding that preexists the interview, and just see what unfolds.
listening podcasting sitting
The medium of podcasting and the personal nature of it, the relationship you build with your listeners and the relationship they have with you - they could be just sitting there, chuckling and listening... there's nothing like that.
funny sex cancer
I used to be jealous; I'm not jealous anymore. And a miracle happened to me, because if you're jealous, it's a cancer, it's a plague on your spirit, it really is. And I actually cured jealousy in a very weird way - I cured it with mathematics. And I'm not a math person at all, but I've been with my wife for about seven years, so we have had sex probably, I'd like to think, like, 9 million times or, at least, 1,500. So, the way I figured it, if she goes out and screws some other guy once - I'm still winning.
people sensitive provocative
I always thought I was funny, but I was very sensitive, and very provocative just to get a rise out of people.
funny book humor
I immediately went out and bought a book on anger management. And now I have that book, and I don't know if I'll get to the book. But I'm certainly excited about the day where I can't find the book, and I get to say, 'Where the hell is my anger management book?!'
campus mutual-respect mutual
Because we're comics and we pass each other on campus, we know of each other, and a lot of the time there's a mutual respect there.
running new-york boston
It always astounds me that over the course of my career, and having lived in four comedy cities - New York, Boston, San Francisco, and Los Angeles - there's very few people I haven't run into.
funny dad humor
My dad is actually a manic depressive, which is very exciting half the time.
funny country jobs
They are not testing comics for drugs. If our job is dependent on that, there would be three working comics in the country, and two of them would have puppets.
funny humor years
In show business, it takes 10 years to create an overnight success. You've heard that, right? But what you don't hear is that that's the exact same amount of time it takes to create a bitter failure.
thinking needs interviews
I don't make a list of questions. Ever. I think a lot of my interviews are driven by my need to feel connection.
funny humor winning
The way I figure it, if you can't tell I'm high by looking at me, I win.
funny dream humor
It's not all about love. That's half of it... The other half is about that moment you have with yourself when you're looking in the mirror, and you just go, 'Oh man. I'm going to compromise my dreams, get fat, sick, old and die someday. I kind of want to have someone around for that.'
funny humor thinking
I don't care what anybody says, I think that George Bush is absolutely the right president to oversea the end of the world.
