I enjoy stand-up because it has the biggest reward: instant gratification. You can hear the people laughing.

I love stand up, but every year, the road takes a little more out of you.

Stand-up is kind of like my home base, and doing stand-up in New York is what I like doing most.

Stand-up is like a row boat: it's fun and romantic when you're choosing to do it. But if you have no other choice than to be in a row boat it's not as enjoyable; that's survival.

I really don't work a whole lot as far as touring, but I do stand-up every night of my life, no matter where I am.

Oh, I love stand-up.

Stand-up is the foundation to my career. It's what I started out doing.

Stand-up came out of three things. Frustration, necessity and arrogance. I didn't have a great career ahead of me in anything. Someone literally said to me, 'You should try stand-up,' and took me to a venue.

Standup keeps me grounded and keeps me in touch. I get to go from small towns to big cities, across Canada and the U.S., and you're out there and talking to people. You get a sense of what they respond to.

I really don't work a whole lot as far as touring, but I do stand-up every night of my life, no matter where I am. It's really made the touring a lot less grueling.
