I had a lot of coaches growing up that were very hard on the kids in the name of building character, but it could have the opposite effect on kids.

I'm listening to a lot of Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, and Rihanna. A lot of pop female artists. I have to say I'm pretty well-versed in the pop female category.

Like most people, I have painful memories of trying to fit in as a child. I wore, said, and did pretty much what everyone else did.

My job doesn't define my kids in any way. When we go to places, it's about them and it's about us as a family. I think they're proud of me, but I'm just Dad.

Programming is a pretty tricky thing to start learning. You need to combine it with comedy to get a wider audience.

I think if I have any kind of unique gift, it's more in the comedy area than it is in the dramatic area.

Stand-up comedy is what I do, and it's so rewarding. If you write a joke and tell it to an audience of 15,000 people who laugh their heads off at it, it's the best feeling in the world.

I think, in a film that's supposed to last an hour and a half, I think you have to really pay attention to what kind of movie you're making, what is the audience experiencing, and does this joke fit with this joke?
