I guess my favorite Web site would be theonion.com. I used to read that paper all the time in New York, and it still cracks me up. It's actually my homepage on my computer.
The more cerebral, slightly darker comedy stuff is where I love to live.
I'd taken some classes at UCB in New York and again at the Magnet Theater and the PIT Theater. I definitely never advanced to where I was on a team or anything like that.
Nothing is better than showing up twice a week, acting like a 12 year-old for two hours, and then going home.
Since I was a kid, music has been a huge part of my life. My parents had a pretty solid vinyl collection and exposed me to some amazing artists.
It's so fun to just slip on different hats and play different characters, even if it's just for a minute.
'Sound of My Voice' is an amazing film. Small, simple, yet incredibly thought provoking.
I've been a diehard fan of 'The Simpsons' since I was a kid.
You've got to have confidence and trust in your cast. You have to have confidence and trust in your director, in your editor. It's such a team effort; I really think you have to pull yourself out of it and just trust. I think the number one thing you can do is just trust everyone around you.

Honestly, my biggest education regarding improv comedy actually came on the job working for 'My Boys.'
I like comfy feet. If I'm not barefoot, you'll probably find me with a pair of New Balance on.
As long as I can remember, I've always had pets. Something about the connection you share with this entirely different species just blows my mind.
You're using such different muscles and you rely on physicality in live action, but in animation, you totally throw that out the window. But somehow, they're both as satisfying.
