I had my own insecurities, which a lot of my comedy would come from, about not being able to live up to their academic expectations. Acting out those insecurities was a way of confronting them, like, “Let me just lean into being a guy who can’t read or write.”

I waited tables in New York, and when you're in that line of work, you often have a horrible boss.

As an actor, sometimes you feel a pressure to change yourself from time to time.

I don't think you should just do what makes you happy. Do what makes you great.

For the people who don't know, my character could described, in a nutshell, as the bar dumb-dumb.

Actors put ourselves in awkward positions all the time.

Yeah, I've always considered myself a musical person.
