I lived in LA for almost nine years and if I never went back there again it would be fine.

I'm of the mindset that most people who have kids are, which is, 'Hey, I want another me. I like me. I'm pretty cool, and I've got really great ideas, and the way I think is the right way to think. Let's put another one of me out there.' So I'll have kids one day.

I think I'd be a really good dad. So perhaps I'm doing society a disservice by not having as many kids as possible.

Sketches have characters, exits, entrances and are vastly different.

If there are a couple of adjectives people use to describe me, anger is usually in there. I've never taken that as criticism. It's the way I naturally communicate. But I'm not faux-angry, like Lewis Black, or angry like a gun-toting crazy person. I'm just angry in a mild way - it's not like I'm going to do anything about it.

I think people, for the most part, actually want what they think is best.

I remember being a kid and the Vietnam War was huge and looking at Watergate.

The best thing about me is there are no skeletons.

I'd be curious to find out, but I don't think people in the entertainment industry are proportionally more or less serious politically than anyone in the landscaping industry.

In New York there isn't that weird palpable competitive thing where it's friendly but everyone isn't trying to top one another with jokes when you're just hanging around.

Originally they wanted me to be Buster but I really like the Tobias part.

I love doing stuff with Todd Barry and Jon Benjamin. We give the stage to good bands and funny people.
