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.

I think comedians should focus on what makes them happy, what art form fulfills them the most. Don't be calculated about it and say, 'Okay, I'm gonna tweet, and I'm gonna podcast, and I'm gonna do standup, and one of those things is going to lead me to my own TV show.' I don't think that should be the goal.

Your average comedian doesn't know the podcast universe, really.

I came to one of the first Comic Cons in 1985, when it was just people trading back issues of comic books.

There's a moment in every romantic comedy when a person sees something in someone else that nobody else sees.

At first I moved from Sydney to Melbourne, because most of the comedy was shot in Melbourne, and then from Melbourne to Los Angeles - and you have to sacrifice stuff.

Directing a television episode is no joke, and it's incredibly difficult and especially when you're acting in it as well.

I started out more interested in drama, but comedy just came naturally to me, and it's become what I'm most known for, even though my sensibilities still lean towards the dramatic for the most part.
