I love words, and I love that there's so many words available to make a point and to create a picture.

I like 'Denzel Washington is the Greatest Actor of All Time Period' podcast.

I consume a lot of podcasts. I'm a voracious podcast consumer.

Well 'The Pod F. Tompkast,' as much as I love the result of it, was a really labor intensive show. There's a lot of writing, there's a lot of scheduling, there's a lot of recording - it's not a show that we can necessarily do in one day because there are so many moving parts to it.

In an effort to devote more time, energy and focus to fewer projects, I've had to make some tough decisions, and one such decision was 'retiring' from 'Speakeasy.'

I always like things that shrink the world for me, that make me feel a strange connection, not just to the person that I'm listening to but to the world.

A big difference between podcasts and radio is the intimacy. Radio oftentimes feels big and loud. To me, podcasting is closest to that weird late night stuff, whether it's late night love song request lines, or it's some talk radio show where you feel like you're the only person listening to it.

Comedy Bang! Bang!' has meant so much to me over the years, and has brought me so much and so many new fans.

The ideas that you find funny and the things that you are offering to an audience are tied up with who you are and your soul and your heart.

Cake Boss, I guess, has been made aware of my impression and finds it amusing and recognizes that it's not a completely accurate impersonation of who he is in his daily life. He seems to be a good sport about it.

What I do with impressions, I try not to be mean-spirited. To me, it's just about being silly.

The old Johnny Carson 'Tonight Show' was great in that he was so good with the guests, and it was not about him. I think he was very smart in realizing 'I have plenty of screentime on this show. I do my monologue and we do sketches and stuff like that.' During the interview, he really made it about trying to bring the best thing out of the guest.

I'm fascinated by people who can keep who they are in the midst of this business, which is all about not only pretending to be other people, but also that perception of who you are and how successful you are and your standing in the business.

Some people just want to make up the funny things and play pretend.

Part of our job is to dig deep and rediscover the joy that we had when we were first starting out. Also, when you gain responsibility, if you are the host of a TV show and you have responsibilities as a producer and a writer and so forth, you then have to deal with the mechanics of it, which is not always fun.

Ultimately, some of these things I did not get paid for, they did not further my career, they were done just for fun.

When I started my own podcast, I realized I definitely wanted to do characters.

When I go in to 'Comedy Bang Bang,' I'll go in most of the time with some beats of where we're going with the idea. Everything else is improvised. Nothing is scripted. A lot of times I'll go in there with nothing and it's just conversation with the character.

It seems the more shallow and mean the candidates are the more they rise in the polls.

Mork, played by Robin Williams, was my introduction to improv, and my first real peek behind the curtain of television production; I had seen Williams riffing on 'The Tonight Show' and soon put it together that certain scenes with Mork were not scripted.

Fonzie was impossibly cool.

I loved Garry Marshall. The television shows he created in the '80s were the most deeply important entertainment of my childhood.

Happy Days,' 'Laverne & Shirley,' 'Mork & Mindy' - it takes no effort at all to conjure, physically, the profound excitement I felt watching these shows in prime time. I remember sitting on the floor, too close to the TV, rapt.

I don't know grammar but I do know that I love playing games on my phone.
