Doing the podcast, the whole reason to do it is just because I can do whatever I want.
I came to one of the first Comic Cons in 1985, when it was just people trading back issues of comic books.
I guess when I was a kid I wasn't the type of person playing a lot of pranks. I was the type of person upon whom pranks were pulled.
I look back on our productivity in the 'Mr. Show' days, and think, 'We probably could have worked harder.'
I'm not the type of guy who's funny in the room. I'm the guy who's funny late at night on a computer, trying to construct jokes.
I'm probably doing puns more than anything in my life.
I've always been fascinated with radio and broadcasting. I did fake radio shows as a kid, where I was a DJ and stuff like that.
If you look at Earwolf, we've tried to have a really diverse stable of hosts. Even my show can get a little 'dudey' sometimes.
That's one of the benefits of working with a smaller network like IFC. You're awarded more trust, but trust that I really earned.
The best sketch shows are from a group of tight-knit people who've worked together for a really long time.
There's definitely something about the structure of 'Caddyshack' that is unique that no one has ever been able to achieve since then.
What I love about comedy is breaking down the barrier between the audience and the performer.
When I was growing up, I wanted to do Letterman and I loved that live, in-studio model. I still would do something like that.
Your average comedian doesn't know the podcast universe, really.
