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. ”

I love Tinkle, it's really the most fun I've had in years. ”

It's not about trying to be funny all the time. It's more of a document that hopefully is funny. ”

As for Tenacious D, of course it could work as a full length movie; all it requires is a great writer and great director with an ability to think outside of conventional film comedy. ”

Where my comedy really solidified was when Bush was elected. I couldn't understand how craven and crass he was, and how dumb other people were for electing him. ”

I'll think of the idea and then I'll write something down, then within that there will be a joke or two which is the original thing which I thought was funny. ”

Nobody is going to be as bad for free thinking, right-minded individuals than George Bush. ”

I'm pretty happy. I obviously have complaints about things, but for the most part, I'm on the above-average side of happy people. ”

Religion triggers a lot of emotions in me, most of which stem from being raised Jewish in a very Baptist community in the South. I didn't believe any of it from an early age - the clubby quality of whatever religion or church you belonged to, Judaism included. It just struck me as foolish. ”
