I don't read anything about myself.
There's always going to be someone who hates you. There's always going to be people who love you. It's a risk in either direction.
A lot of comedy is really DIY. You're kind of doing it yourself.
You've got to have gumption. You've got to be willing to stand up on the stage for no money for ten years.
