I'm Not Fundamentally A Writer. I Know

We Live In A Culture Where People Are Self-centered And Careerist And Everybody Seems To Think They Have Too Much On Their Plate Or They Just Don't Have Time For Other People's Pain.

I Came Upon Whatever I'm Doing Organically. I Didn't Study Anything. I Don't Have Any Real Aspirations Other Than To Connect With Somebody, And To Have The Conversation Be Genuine. That's The Best That Can Happen. Even If It Only Happens For 10 Minutes In An Episode. But I Think What People Forget Is That You Don't Have To Try To Get A Comedian To Be Funny. Comedians Are Innately Funny. That The Real Challenge Of Talking To Them Is To Get Them Talking About Real Things And Then See Where They Need To Be Funny. And Let Them Do That On Their Own Volition.

When I Was A Bit Older I Had All Of The George Carlin Records, All Of The Steve Martin Records, All Of The Cheech And Chong Records And All Of The Richard Pryor Records.

I Once Talked About Wanting To Kill Myself, But I Don't Think I Was Ever Really Planning On Doing It. It Was Just Comforting To Know That I Could.

Comics Seemed To Have A Handle On Things. They Could Sort Of Disarm And Get Control Over Reality. I Found It Very Comforting To Laugh.
