Look, you couldn’t pay me to listen to their music, but I still feel like I have more in common with Insane Clown Posse than I do with someone who just sits on the sidelines and shits on other people’s work and who never puts themselves on the line.

I always have a lot of respect for people who do things. Even if it's the worst garbage on earth.

I love doing the show more than anything. It's truly the most satisfying thing creatively that I've ever had in my life.

My friend Phil Morrison directed a lot of my favorite videos back in the mid- to late-90s - all the Yo La Tengo videos that were funny, a Juliana Hatfield video. He was such an influence with me, and I wanted to do a video the way Phil used to do videos. I did that for Phil.

I get so much inspiration from people working hard at music, even though it's nothing to do with what I do.

My day job is writing for television. So I've been on enough sets, and I know how things work.

I keep thinking the bad guys will win in the end and take it all away, but somehow it all seems to keep working.
