I have a very vivid memory.

I have a medical condition, all right. It's called caring too much, and it's incurable. Also, I have eczema.

My father and I were really like a team. I mean, he was very supportive. He'd come to every single one of my live shows.

I think New Yorkers - they're media savvy. People have a sense of humor.

I came back to New York after college like any number of struggling performers, and you just find that niche where you can have some sort of impact. And for me that turned out to be comedy.

I thought I was going to be like Kevin Spacey in college.

Even when I was struggling and had horrible day jobs and wanted to be successful but wasn't finding my way in, I knew what I had to do. I knew I had to keep working at it and keep putting material out there, even if no one was paying me for it.
