"I was watching out-takes of Veep. I love Veep. It is so good. And I watch it — it's become like my self-soothing. Like if I've had a long day, I'm like I'm just going to watch Veep. You could just jump into any season and it's amazing. But some of the insults they hurl at each other are so precision strikes. Go on YouTube and watch Veep outtakes or Veep bloopers."

"When I got divorced, I went back to martial arts class when I took up Brazilian jiu-jitsu because I actually took up well, you know, Craig Jones actually said in an interview recently like this is cardio for divorce."

"I'm a huge fan of apologies. Like, in every aspect of my life, personal and professional, I'm very quick to apology because it doesn't cost anything. When you start a conversation with, 'All right, listen. Anything I did that made you feel unloved or unvalued, I'm genuinely sorry for that.' How much can you escalate after that? It's really pretty hard to escalate when someone starts with an unconditional sense of, whoa, whoa, whoa, I'm sorry that we're in this position right now."
