No one goes into standup to make money. The frustration and rejection are just too much.

I'm closer to Bob Newhart than Rodney Dangerfield.

There's something that's really fun about the challenge of making the mundane funny, too, I think.

Manhattan's probably one of the bluest parts in the country, and Indiana's definitely one of the redder states. I have sympathy for both sides.

I'm from Indiana. I know what you're thinking, Indiana... Mafia. But in Indiana it's not like New York where everyone's like, 'We're from New York and we're the best' or 'We're from Texas and we like things big' it's more like 'We're from Indiana and we're gonna move.'
