My favorite people to have fun with are police officers 'cause they're so serious, you know.

As a comedian, especially one that works as much as I do, there is a lot of sacrifice. People don't see that I'm away from my family 46 weeks out of the year. I miss all the birthdays and anniversaries and holidays.

Early on when I started talking about my weight, it was self-deprecating; everything was a joke.

[ The aim to be big] is not a joke about my size. It's just that I'm a dreamer, but I'm following through with it. I believe anyone can do it as long as they focus and have a game plan.

I was a big fan of Rodney Dangerfield. He had this HBO Young Comedians Special and he'd always bring up new talent, and I loved that!

That was the challenge. How can you tell the story here and make sure it goes the same way on the other side of the world?

I was not the popular kid in school.
