I often think about my future wife and how lax she's been about getting in touch with me.

Comedy clubs are arguably one of the last bastions of uncensored, public free speech.

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.

Comics definitely embody the importance of practicing free speech.

In terms of my own work ethic, I've always been a determined person. When I'm focused on something, I try to see it through.

I don't know that I have a single comedy philosophy. But talking about things that matter to you is a good place to start. Listening is a big part of it, too.

Not that that's the goal, but sometimes these funny insights can also be deeply profound.
