The funniest sketch I’ve ever seen …
Brent Forrester’s “Pre-Taped Call-In Show” sketch for Mr Show or any one of the more anarchic Whitest Kids U’ Know sketches like The Grapist.
The funniest film I’ve ever seen …
Picking between Mel Brooks movies would be like picking my favourite child. I assume. I have no children. But everyone has a favourite child, right? The Producers.
The funniest person I know …
Katherine Ryan. She is so brilliant and so funny and no one has ever made me laugh harder.
The funniest item of clothing I’ve ever owned …
I had a Zara leather jacket I got off a drunk fella at Glastonbury for a jelly doughnut. I lost it on the subway in NYC and I think about it once a week.
The funniest meal I’ve ever eaten …
Any meal with my friends Gary Gulman and Ryan Hamilton. It’s the best thing about being a comedian: funny meals with funny people after funny shows.
The funniest hairstyle I’ve ever had …
The one I have now. It’s unfortunate.
The funniest thing that shouldn’t be funny …
Corny jokes told by someone you love. And Eddie Pepitone.
The funniest joke I’ve ever heard …
Terrorist bursts on to a plane with a gun and goes: “Who’s Jewish?” This old man in the back stands up and goes: “You know, that’s a very interesting question.”
