When I got my Oprah money, the first thing I bought was a really nice electronic bidet toilet seat. It just feels like this is what we should be doing. For everybody who uses it, it's like there's no goin' back.

Writing every day across nine time zones because Gillian [Grassie] was in Berlin, and we were working together via Skype. It was pretty intense. I'm really happy with how it turned out.

Technically I can get out of my wheelchair and crawl around and do things, but when I've traveled and they've lost my wheelchair in transit, I feel like I need to be bound to it. My functionality and autonomy are often bound to this.

My experiences of traveling abroad and going to Italy with my father, having to break down a gigantic electric chair to get on trains. You've got three minutes. You go to Pompeii and there are shockingly few accessible hotels in a city that was covered in volcanic ash.

Everyone who was here [Sheraton Universal Hotel] when I won still works here, so the two biggest moments in my career are intersecting. It's so cool that I can say hi to everybody.

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.

I just love all the music. My grandma was a church organist for 40 years, and she got me into jazz music and great songwriters, Harold Arlen, George Gershwin, all those folks. I can't do it, but I have a profound respect for it.

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.

I realized that I was a really, really terrible actor. I was like, I'd better be myself.

I think that's where it comes into play, when you are just looking at a document or whatever and you see the word disability. Does that automatically trigger something in you that denies someone their personhood?

Writing was not my medium. I preferred to do video.

You may not have a physical impairment, but you have things, whether it's finances, self-esteem, it doesn't matter. It's cut from the same cloth.

I haven't found anything that I've wanted to say that I couldn't do through either the Internet or the reality shows that I've done.

I had to write a comedy set and film a show at the same time. And it's the second time I've been up on stage as a stand-up comedian with untested material. I was saying it out loud for the first time that night. It didn't go how I expected, but in the best possible way.

What I don't like about the way the media portrays religion is that they seem to weaponize it and use it as a tool to divide people.

The most important thing is to have the conversation, and let people who do make mistakes feel comfortable enough to continue the conversation.

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.

I thought this should be a travel show, because a lot of people with physical disabilities get discouraged.
