When you first start working, you take whatever job is offered, because you have to build your resume. But you don't think about what you're building.

I'm just gonna do a podcast because it's mine, I can control it, I have complete responsibility over it, and no one can touch it.

Stand-up isn't something I just sit down and start writing - it's ideas you come up with in the shower, while you're driving, waiting in line.

Stand-up for me is usually a weekend thing. I go out of town and just do it.

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

Any nerd who grew up around the time that I did, BBC programming was a treasure chest for us.

Worry is a misuse of your imagination.
