I do believe that the Mormon Church is at kind of an awakening, in two different ways: More people are becoming aware of it, and it's becoming a force to be reckoned with. There's a lot of Mormon converts globally.

When I was a kid, there was kind of a given that there were some really bad, racist police out there. That's just what America was like when I was a kid.

I love writing family stories.

I've always felt like I had a guardian angel in some of those ways.

During my career as a standup and actor, I realized it was very frustrating for me to get hired because Hollywood was hiring a different kind of brother, you know, and I was doing political humor... In order for me to really have a long career, I'm going to have to learn how to write and produce for myself... I had no idea I was really going to like it and I'm very fortunate to be successful. But the idea was to always eventually create something for myself. That was the idea from the beginning when I went into writing and producing.

When I was a kid, I was very much interested in magic and science. They fueled interest in one another.

You go, dark energy! Go on, dark matter. They don't understand you, dark matter. They don't get you.
