I don't have a fear factor. Well, not much of one. And I'm willing to risk quite a lot - as a comedian, you're always risking a lot. You're risking failure, especially if you're improvising and going on TV shows trying to make comedy out of thin air. That is quite a risky business.

I think that... I would say that sometimes people get afraid of when you're balancing comedy and drama.

I'd love to do a comedy. I'm terrified of comedy. I don't think I'm funny, but I guess that's why it's so thrilling.

Comedy is probably a way of dealing with anxiety. Sometimes it's a way of dealing with pain.

The physical part of comedy is as hard as a lot of action movies. It scares me, but in a way that I like.

I love comedies. I love watching them. I think I've always been afraid of being on them a little bit.

The success of my comedy has been not being afraid to touch on subject matters or issues that everyone else is politically scared of.

In fact, I don't watch a lot of contemporary comedy for fear of being influenced by it.

Comedy scares me a lot. I feel like it's way harder than drama. I think my safety net is definitely drama, and I would love to kind of be able to be able to push into the comedy world and do something kind of like a Christopher Guest kind of style show. That, to me, is my kind of comedy. Like, Ricky Gervais comedy. That's my kind of thing.

When I do comedy, I lose all inhibition and introspection. I no longer care.
