I do lots of crowd work in my set, because I enjoy writing material through riffing and conversation.

I think the mistake a lot of people make with new media is they just focus on one thing. But any one thing - just doing podcasts or just having a website or just doing television - isn't enough anymore.

Trying to make strangers laugh is crazy and more than a little narcissistic.

I was very competitive growing up. I can't even play chess anymore because I used to play tournament chess in school. There's too much sense memory of sitting in front of a chess board and getting super intense about it. It's ruined the game for me.

You don't need 30 million people to listen to your podcast. If 10,000 people listen to your podcast, which is not a hard number to achieve, then 10,000 people are listening, and you can build a community, and literally change the world just recording into a microphone.

No human ever became interesting by not failing. The more you fail and recover and improve, the better you are as a person. Ever meet someone who's always had everything work out for them with zero struggle? They usually have the depth of a puddle. Or they don't exist.

I've gone from being bullied by jocks as a kid to being bullied by nerds as an adult.

Things that are viral are things that motivate people to say I have to share this with everyone I know, and that has been more politics lately, and that's completely understandable.

I had a personal blog, but why does anyone care that I went shopping for hats?

I feel like so much of why I sort of want to work in television is so that people know to come see me live.

I made a lot of changes in my life between my twenties and thirties, and it all sort of revolves around how I think people with nerdier brains tend to problem-solve and approach things differently then norms.

Comment threads are the new therapy for people. They just go and post the worst things they can think of because they feel bad, and then other people start attacking them, and then they attack back.

Steal moments of happiness if you have to, and then collect them until they are the dominant images in your psyche.

Don't tell television, but there is some superior programming being made on the Interwebz.

I love the South. Although I grew up primarily in Memphis, my family moved around a ton when I was a kid. I guess I never stayed in one place long enough to pick up the accent, but I definitely identify as a Southerner.

The nerdist movement is less about consumers there is a large contingent that are creative nerdists instead of consumers.

Nerdists, unlike nerds, tend to be creators as much as consumers. They're creative consumers.
