I Hate L.A. Dudes is a pretty strong statement. When did you realize that L.A. dudes really need to shape up? Have you gotten any backlash/praise for airing out these grievances?
"I realized it after living in New York and moving back to Los Angeles. The guys I’d meet and hang around just made it clear to me that I just can’t stand them. I’ve gotten some backlash from guys, but mostly praise from women. They get it. And they know the truth."

If you could play any sitcom character in history who would it be?
"Ooo…Liz Lemon."

Who's your dream comedian collaborator?
"Tina Fey."
