My act's not heavy on pop culture or stories, just lots of jokes.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Sometimes, comedy and entertainment is not all about telling jokes; sometimes you just have to be you for a few moments.
My comedy is different than a lot of people's.
I don't have to worry about writing jokes. I just tell stories about things that have happened to me. As long as I'm alive and I'm living and I'm experiencing different things every day, the show will always change.
I don't really know how to act that much. I'm quite good at comedy, but it's mostly acting naturally.
Comedy, at least the way I write comedy, is just drama with jokes.
I'm not good at narrative; I'm really a gag writer, and that comes from being in the newspaper comic strip world for a while in college. What I do is I just write tons of jokes, then I sort them out in terms of quality and then pick the best of the jokes and then try to form them into a plot. If I get a good theme going, I feel lucky.
I wasn't very good in my serious acting class. Sometimes people took our class so seriously, so I used to, sort of, make fun of people after class. And so a friend of mine said, 'Why don't you do the comedy thing.' That's how it all worked out.
I've actually done a lot of comedy.
If you do something that is not gags and punchlines and is character-based, where there are no jokes as such, then it all has to come from a place of truth, and I love that - I love nothing more than getting very serious about my comedy.
I tell stories. Because I believe you can do things that joke tellers can't do, and that is, bring your audience along.
