I'm a very straightforward person. But that's fine for a comedian. Because a lot of times you're talking about everyone else.

In every case, I find pre-planning noble, but not always that useful in comedy. You know comedy once you're doing it.

I like when things are crazy. Something good comes out of exhaustion.

It's important to remember that life is a joke and that outlook grants a lot of perspective, but I don't think comedy should change and become political due to other things. It should just laugh at that cosmic joke that life is all the time.

If something is very, very funny but possibly controversial, if it's truly funny, then it's worth doing. Things aren't worth doing for the sake of being controversial.

I definitely look like a toddler. I feel comfortable and I have a lot of fun out there [John Mulaney Show]. And if I were to be extremely egotistical, I'd say I got a tiny bit better.
