thinking fans building
I think that the web and its various facets are incredibly useful in just building a fan base and getting your chops better.
thinking bills hicks
I think that being on the road and doing more and more stand-up has allowed me to figure out... like, I don't think I'll ever be Bill Hicks, but I think I'm figuring out what my opinion is on things.
thinking people stuff
I like to think that the stuff I do is oftentimes collaborative, so to have other people in it felt natural.
thinking trying phases
It's almost worse because you think that you're mature and classic when you're in the newsie cap jazz phase. It's not a great look, a young person trying to seem old and mature and cultured. That's a summarily not-cool look.
college thinking years
You think you're going to be on TV a year out of college and you're not. Then you tell people and it's embarrassing. And then it's not a big deal at all.
boys thinking ironic
My first concert isn't that cool or ironic. I wish it had been like, "My first concert was the Backstreet Boys," but the first concert I went to, I think, was this band called The Samples.
thinking two guy
I had PubLIZity, I had Oh, Hello, I had Bobby and Farley - all of these sketches that were really these duo sketches, but the relationship between them is really what catapulted them forward. A lot of that, I think, came from Wayne and Garth, these two similar guys - they're Midwestern metal guys - but in the end, they're quite different because there's an alpha and a beta. And I think that model became very present for me on Kroll Show.
character thinking trying
When you're playing something, hopefully, if you're doing your best, you're advocating for your character and you're not trying to think too much.
men thinking play
I've decided to just keep doing Oh, Hello, where I play an older man who thinks he's very cultured. That clearly has not gone away.
crazy thinking expression
Anyone you give a ton of money to is going to go slightly crazy. I don't think comedians are particularly special in that regard; they just are better or more vocal in their expressions of their craziness.
thinking games limits
My thinking is, if we're setting out to make comedy in which nothing is off limits, then everybody is fair game.
writing thinking together
My friends, we all improvise together usually. So we write what I think is a good script but always leave a lot of room to find stuff on the day; and we always do find something. That's the advantage to having actors who are, in their own right, writers.
thinking goal matter
I think my goal was just to do comedy, honestly. It still is. Whatever form that took or takes, it doesn't matter.
way tvs it-takes-time
My experience in TV is that it takes time for shows to find their way.
