A lot of people complain in the year 2003 that it's not the world of tomorrow as foreseen in the 1950s. 'Where are the flying cars?' people say. 'Where are the robots who bring us blue drinks and warn us of danger?' Alright. We don't have those things, specifically, folks, but you know what we do have? Laser vaginal rejuvenation surgery.

As a comedy nerd, I get a lot out of the podcast because I'm genuinely interested in the people I'm talking to.

I think when I look out and I see there's so much negativity in the world and a lot of people are unhappy and a lot people are anxious, it just feels like that's one view of the world. But you don't have to always focus on that view of the world.

Bowling really was a big American sport in the '50s, '60s, and '70s, and then it kind of died off in the '80s.

Growing up in the 70s and 80s, it took effort to be a nerd. You had to seek out the nerd stuff.

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.

I think for a lot of people, bowling is sort of a joke. But I love it, and it means a lot to me, so any chance to help promote it or celebrate it or not make the hackiest jokes - 'Bowlers are like plumbers and they wear the craziest shirts!' - I'm way into.
