You're not chasing syndication any more. It used to be a big thing. "Let's make 100 episodes and we'll get paid for life". You know? And what does the sheer amount of content that's being made do to syndication after a while? It just seems like there's more content than there is hours for everyone to watch it. But it's some of the best content that's ever been created.

I mean, stand up you're by yourself and it's live and when you're acting, unless you're doing a monologue, you're interacting with somebody else. Even if you're doing a monologue you're saying it to somebody and it's not live so you can do it a few times.

I think it gets uncomfortable when you try to act like you didn't just tell a joke that bombed.

[I'm] more German than Irish.

I just do my act. If people in England don't get my joke I make fun of myself for telling it.

I've been bumped, I've had to go up after them, I've had stuff thrown at me, I've been booed. I've had people steal from me and lie to me.

The whole city [Manchester] just a real rock music vibe. It reminded me a lot of where I'm from.
