It's always good to revitalize the brand, to adapt to changing viewer habits and attention spans. It's good to evolve and important to challenge ourselves along with the viewer. Complacency is death when it comes to comedy. A successful career is a victory in baby-steps. I take nothing for granted and try my best to foster a strong work ethic and disciplined approach to my craft. A successful career is all about the 'long haul'.

[on his 'Take No Prisoners' tour] When comedians have a great show they say they 'killed'. Thus the title. After suffering six to eight months in a frozen, hyperborean headlock that would have the Wendigo chewing your ears off, the last place Canadians want to be when it finally I warms up is I doors.

[on 'living the Canadian show biz dream'] Stephen Harper had the audacity to insinuate that performers live a 'red carpet life'. Right, buddy. I've taken roadside 'squirts', trying to get to a gig in such forgotten corners of this country that the Neanderthals haven't left yet. And it's called Fort McMurray.

Performing before a live house that's got the burners on high is as close to flying without actually leaving terra firma. It's the Life Force on full throttle.
