You've got to have gumption. You've got to be willing to stand up on the stage for no money for ten years.

You need to be able to agree from time to time if we're going to get anywhere. Once you have started a civil dialogue, it's a much smoother road to compromise. The key thing to remember is it's a daily practice.

Sometimes you're just interviewing someone and you're thinking the entire time, How can I get through this really quickly? Because I know this isn't gonna make it. This person is either too long-winded or deathly boring, or they don't have the point of view that supports what you're trying to do in the piece. Or often people misrepresent themselves on the phone - what they're willing to say to you then, they're not willing to say in person.

I find Donald Trump so haphazard, and that keeps me up at night.

Last year people won more than one billion dollars playing poker. And casinos made twenty-seven billion just by being around those people.

I don't feel intimidated by any of the people I'm talking to or the situations I find myself in. I just try to make my nana proud.

Hopefully the person I'm trying to create is just a funny, dour, evil side of myself that has no other way to express itself. I don't model it after anyone in particular. Who would be like that? Who? I wouldn't want to meet that person. I wouldn't want to be interviewed by that person, I can tell you that.
