The people who are the worst at news, who kind of engage in what I call the World Wrestling of news, have kind of set the bar for where news is.

I think sometimes you don't understand how to convey an idea, depending on the moment you're living in.

Someone stole my wallet last week. The guy called me up and he was mad at me. He was like 'you gotta get your finances together. You got no cash, your credit cards are maxed out. You don't even have minutes on your calling card. I had to use my card to call you.'

I feel like we can prove in real time the old trope that comedy is tragedy plus time.

I feel like everyone wants to make a movie that they feel passionate about watching.

The key is to do what you love.

My writing process is very feedback-based. When I do stand-up, I listen to the audience. I try to understand what's connecting, what's not connecting, and then rewrite, rewrite and rewrite.
