What's great about this hotel [Sheraton Universal Hotel in Universal City, CA] is that I stayed here for a month when I was competing on the Oprah reality show. So it's like coming home.

There's a whole chapter about my unfortunate manscaping accident. I was so focused on, I've got to look this certain way and do this to be ready for this. So I missed out on a lot.

I used to be an insult comic, and I didn't end up liking the way that I felt about myself.

The thing to do is just make sure that as part of a disability community, we're not isolating ourselves by drawing differences for the sake of progress.

If everything was perfect, it would always be a person-first conversation, but whenever I have the opportunity, I lead with my personality. If they're looking and seeing the disability first or the chair first, I know that I have the ability to change that.

My friends from the University of Texas. I've had the same friends for over a decade. My brother films a lot he usually edits my Workout Wednesdays. All the people who work on my projects are amazing.

There's always going to be some hate on the Internet.

I'm currently doing a Soul Pancake show called Top of the Monday, which is basically a good morning news show. It's just me being silly, telling people about good news that's going on in the world, putting them in the mood to start their week.

The waiter just flashed me something that said, Chew bubblegum. Every morning, when I was about to go to the Oprah competition, my friend used to say this line in a video game to me: It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum. There's a strict policy that you can't encourage anyone on a reality show, that would give them an edge.

I have a confession: I have no faith.

You really just have to have a good attitude, challenge yourself, and you can accomplish great things.

When I was a kid, I thought I would be an action-movie hero. I was like, They're gonna be able to CGI my legs by that point. And then I realized that it was probably better if I stayed a little closer to who I actually am rather than trying to be Bruce Willis.
