I think being an outcast is what sort of strengthens the nerd movement, because you're isolated, so you have time.

Some people learn comedy, and some people just are comedy.

It changed my whole outlook. I lost a decade to self-pity, and the next thing I knew I was turning 40.

There's a lot of laughing on a horror movie set. They're magical in that way.

For me personally, I have a fear of, 'If I stop, I'm going to die.' If I stop doing the things that are enriching to me or creatively exciting to me or if I stop creating, then I feel stagnant. If something isn't growing, it's dying.

As someone who's very nerd-minded, whenever I see a lot of cross-platform stuff when I get bonus material on either side, then it makes me want to dive deeper, sort of like tearing apart the different pieces of the pie.

I do podcasts for the same reasons I do stand-up comedy. I love it, and I don't care if anybody else gets it.
