The truth is, I just don't have that much time to see movies. So if I get two hours where I can actually see a film, I don't want to go backwards, I want to go forwards.

When I say something untrue on the air, I mean for it to be transparently untrue. I assume people know when I'm just saying something for effect. Or to be funny.

In some theoretical way I know that a half-million people hear the show. But in a day-to-day way, there's not much evidence of it.

Honestly, there are so many things about structuring a story for film and telling a story for film that are really different from doing radio.

Many times I see you as a portrait of torture.

Brad Pitt is so good-looking there's a lightbulb inside of him shooting good-looking-ness in all directions.

But you can make good radio, interesting radio, great radio even, without an urgent question, a burning issue at stake.
