What happened was, I always wanted to be a singer/songwriter kind of guy like a James Taylor or Crosby, Stills and Nash type of thing; I went to a lot of coffee houses and used to watch all those guys, but I never had the nerve to get up and do it because singing seems so personal and intimate to me. It was too revealing.

I grew up watching stand-ups and thought it was so entertaining and unique - you didn’t see that as a job description anywhere.

'The Outer Limits' was one of those shows I grew up watching - that and The 'Twilight Zone.'

A special validates you as a stand-up by documenting your material.

I like to stuff myself at Thanksgiving, not turkeys.

I played a security guard, and I think it was in the State Department. This was my first acting role, really, and I remember rehearsing it on the couch with my girlfriend at the time. I had a real problem with saying the word "incendiary." Most of my rehearsal was spent on pronouncing the word "incendiary."
