Some people can handle alcohol. You know who you are. Some people can’t handle alcohol. The police know who you are.
I’m a comedian who happens to be Latino. What’s the difference? The difference is, my special will air on Comedy Central, not Telemundo.
I found that laughter was a form of acceptance, and I really enjoyed that and I just – I crave it.
Home in bed listening to the rain getting ready to order a pizza. Sounds like a song til the last part.
You wonder why I only talk about my personal life. But that’s all I’ve ever done.
I almost bought a DeLorean the other day just because. If I see something that I think is cool and I like it, I’ll go for it.
I never go perform somewhere alone. I’ve done that since day one. I’ve always taken other comics with me.
I’m not fat. I’m fluffy!
Kids, man, they’re way too honest. They’re like mini-alcoholics.
I want to be known as a funny comic not just a funny Latino comic. I want to be able to go everywhere and anywhere.
It’s because you alienate half the room talking about sports. Half the crowd will be against you no matter what you say.

Stand-up is not just an American thing anymore. It’s global. In some places, stand-up comedy is brand new. South Africa has only had a scene for 15 years.
Social media has definitely changed the game for me. I am able to connect to my fans on twitter and interact with them, daily. YouTube has been a game changer as well – people around the world have been exposed to my comedy through my YouTube channel.
I was very dirty; I was a very dirty comic. There was no way I would have gotten on TV with the act I had when I first started.
Make sure you’re doing impressions of people that are still relevant, and that everyone knows. Red Skelton impressions are a little outdated.
I have very nice cars. I never get to drive them, because I’m never home.
I see a lot of nice hotels, but I never really get to enjoy the cities, because I have to be on a plane the next day.
I love Australia. First of all, everyone is so nice. The people are down to Earth, and they like having fun with you.
When you’re a comedian, the Holy Grail is an hour long HBO special.
