Image
I don't think I'm identified as the anchorman, I think I'm identified as the impostor anchorman - there's a very clear line there ... I don't think it changes the way they respond.

When you're doing stand-up, you want to stand onstage and, to the extent that you can, uncomplicatedly entertain.
John Oliver
Image
I'm always interested in audience interaction. Not so much aggressive audience interaction - I'm genuinely interested in how people see things.

Image
There are two kinds of hecklers: the destructive and constructive hecklers.

Image
I get nostalgic for British negativity. There is an inherent hope and positive drive to New Yorkers. When you go back to Britain, everybody is just running everything down. It's like whatever the opposite of a hug is.
