I was a straight man long before I knew what it was called. I was just the boring one.

A lot of improvisation ends up being about just thinking outside of the box in the scene. It's not improvisation as much as it is quickness or making it real.

I'm not buying a boat because of writing skits.

One of my oldest friends from Kansas, his sister was married to Ben [Folds] and wrote lyrics on his first couple of albums. I got to meet him the first time I saw them in concert at The Bottleneck, a great bar in Lawrence, Kansas. Then, he was the musical guest my first or second week as a writer on SNL. I was like, "I don't know if you remember me?" And he was like, "Oh my god, yeah!" He's a big photography fan, as am I.

A mustache really defines your face. My dad had a mustache when I was growing up, and I can still remember when he shaved it, he looked like a completely different person.

I've never been a shirt-off, pants-off kind of comedy guy.

I don't know where I'm gonna be two weeks at a time, much less the thing I'm making. I'm just flattered to get the opportunity to do it and to get asked to do it.
