Well, we're still in arenas this leg of the tour. There are just some smaller facilities. Last year, we went filibuster and hit all the A-list places, and after the tour, I thought I'd have some time off. But I had all this new material, and as a comedian, you don't want to sit on new material for too long. So I'm bringing the new material out on tour, and the tour has been an incredible experience.
I met Juliette Binoche when I was working on Dan in Real Life, and she's really great to work with. I also enjoyed working with Kevin Costner, William Hurt, and Demi Moore. I learned a lot watching Kevin Costner -- an Oscar winning director. I've surrounded myself with some of the highest caliber people, because that's the level I aspire to.
What are your plans for Thanksgiving?
I live in L.A., so after the meet & greet in Phoenix, I'll hop on the bus and go home to spend the holiday with my sister. I'm going to eat everything I can. I've been on a diet for six months just for Thanksgiving, so yes -- there will be all manner of Thanksgiving gluttony.
