As a hobbyist, there's something about miniature anything that captures my imagination.

Working on The Daily Show, I co-produced all those field segments, and that's another huge thing.I probably did more than 100 field segments.

This may come as a surprise, given the nature of my job, but I am very guarded and contemplative. I'm not a naturally boisterous person.

The biggest thing that comes out of improv that gets built on is just character traits. You know, for me the singing was born out of improv.

I was just fooling around with the piano and Todd [Phillips] was like, 'Hey there's a great spot in the movie [The Hangover] where we need a little bit of a breath in the narrative. You should write a song and stick it in there.' And I was like, 'Well, what should the song be about?' And he said, 'The tiger.' 'Oh, okay.' So I went off and I wrote this song. I came back and Todd and I tinkered with it a little more and then we shot it right then. It all happened in a day.

I wish there was a way to know you were in the good old days before you actually left them.

I think that music at inappropriate times with inappropriate volumes can be the funniest thing ever.
