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

Stand-up is my foundation. That's where it started at. And I love it because it's personal. It's mine. It's all me. It's my experience in life.

Stand-up, by far, is my favorite.

Oh, I love stand-up.

Doing stand-up is like running across a frozen pond with the ice breaking behind you. I love it because it's dangerous.

But I love stand-up, and it's where I came from creatively, so it's something I never want to walk away from.

I just always loved stand-up. It's like magic. You say something, and a whole room full of people laughs together. Say something else, they laugh again. The fact that people come to see that and participate in that... I don't know, it's just like magic.

I love doing stand-up. It's so self-contained - you go there, you do it, you go home - but with telly, there are too many people involved with it with opinions. You have a product, and everyone wants to change it.

Stand-up is the only thing I have complete control over. There's something to be said for that.
