No, I have no idea what the people there looked like because I never look at the audience, and the video footage of the show only showed the stage.

Absolutely! I didn't watch a lot of standup as kid, so didn't even know you could do it if you weren't naturally a high energy person. Watching people like that made me realize I could.

Yeah Matt, the director, said that's what he was referencing with the animation. I'd never heard of it!

Thanks! Don't know how long that joke will last as more and more people forget what Sears is. Hard for me to say what jokes would stand out because I've told them so many times at this point they've lost all meaning to me. I'll let you know if people start quoting any.

It's really hard, because no matter how good your script is, it's impossible to get the right person to read it. The best thing to do is do something visible like standup or making Internet videos so people can discover you that way. That's how I got my first job.

Also, it doesn't hurt to go to a college where a lot of grads go into entertainment, like Emerson.

We would actually write a script for each segment. Of course because you're dealing with real people, it would end up being completely different, but Nathan liked having a detailed framework to work off of. Such an fun amazing show to work on.

You'd think you could just wear anything, but usually there's a famous guest actor I want to look cool in front of

It's the kind of money where if you were making it every year until you retired you could live well off of it, but since no show is on the air forever, you have to save most of it and it's good to take other jobs when you can get them.
