The anxiety is, "Are they going to come?" and when you get there and it's full you say, "I'm good. I can stop freaking out." But when it's four days out and they're scrambling to find more radio shows and Good Morning Phoenix and all these weird shows, then that gets very tiring.

We all shared this experience. We all had one brain, we were one giant organism working and having joy. "What about Walken?" Sorry, bro...Maybe I should've done an hour and 34 minutes.

This is NOT a pretty good business. You cannot be pretty good and be a national headliner. That becomes the allure.

Comedians are always going to be in the showbiz middle class, you're not Brad Pitt; you're never going to be Sam Rockwell or Shia LaBeouf or Leo DiCaprio. You're a comic.

But if applause throws off your timing, then you're not the kind of comedian I would like to see. All you have to do is stand there and take it.

People that do "bits" and "jokes" or "one-liners" are going by the wayside.

I'm oddly not competitive. What I love about show business is there is a home for everyone.
