I told a joke and people laughed and it was the best feeling. I knew I wanted to do this as a career. I never knew I could get such a high from telling a joke. There's something so extraordinary about having people listening to you and hanging onto your words - it's a great feeling.

I am Jewish. My real name is Chris Tuckenberg. A lot of people don't know about that.

I really loved what I was doing being creative and being funny as a stand-up comedian.

Day-to-day life is a lot of work. I work a lot on stand-up stuff, and then day-to-day life and, you know, just living. It's always different. Try to work out, try to stay in shape, and try to have some fun.

It was like a family reunion, watching the movie. It's always a good feeling when I can get a screening for my family.

I reenact everything. I love to paint a picture for my audience. I'm a lot like Richard Pryor in that aspect. I do a lot of acting on stage, acting out and visualizing stuff. I love to do that. I'm into it so much, it just comes out of me.

What!? You tell people that, I won't get no more black movies?
