I think as a standup performer you have to feel the audience. So the audience kind of dictates what they get, you know?
I really don't go out every night to red-carpet events.
Entourage' is a staple L.A.-based show, and people say it's pretty real, and I thought it was. It's an exaggeration of the truth.
I fly around with chicks on each arm and have no script. I just talk about what I feel like. But that's why my act works: I'm like this normal guy.
I think you gotta look at stuff half-full as opposed to half-empty.
I giggle when I put myself down. It's just funny to me.
Small towns seem to appreciate things a little bit more. They're less jaded and they're more kind of authentic and more themselves and they don't care as much.
I miss working with great actors, working with great directors.
My 20s were a time where I made it; my 30s were when I was away, confused, and trying to figure it all out.
I'm definitely a lot more comfortable now in my 40s than in my 30s - that's for sure.
People in bigger towns are very aware of their surroundings. The people in the smaller markets, they will show up with flip-flops and shorts and just kind of already have a buzz on.
Everywhere I go, people know who I am.
Comedy wasn't something I chose - it chose me.
My mom and dad are both in stand-up comedy, so that's where I started, that's where I got everything. My roots are holding the mic.
