I belong to a gym now... well, let me rephrase that: I don't belong there at all, but I go.

With a project like 'Teachers Lounge,' you're wearing a lot of hats, so it demands hard work and focus if you want to do it right.

Hard work is a muscle that you develop, as is taking risks.

It's harder to reveal sides of yourself that make you vulnerable but it's another muscle that can be developed and one that I think is worthwhile. That said, everyone finds their style. It's personal.

Sometimes crowds start out not liking someone but then they shift and love them. Or vice versa. It can shift on a dime.

Comedy takes all of life and puts it through a lens of acceptance, just by the mere act of talking about it on stage in a communal setting. It's very primal and ritualistic in that sense.

If you're funny, you can find a stage to get on. If you're good, you'll start to get work and eventually get paid.
