JW: There’s the stand-up bit you did, and it’s in the Lucky Louie pilot, too, where your daughter keeps asking, “Why, why, why,” to everything. Doesn’t your comedy sort of do the same thing?
Yeah, Pamela always says to me that onstage, I’m a kid, I’m a child, and she always points that scene out and says, “That’s you.” It’s this deconstruction to a point where there’s not any answers. I don’t think you’re really through…when you’re learning about something and dissecting it, I don’t think you’re really through until you don’t understand anything about it. If you study something and you find all this stuff about it, you just went skin deep, so if you keep going and going, you should be left with a fucking mess of unanswered questions. If you take any subject and keep asking, “Why,” without stopping, you’ll get to a point where there really isn’t any clear answers. It can be a bit painful and scary, so I think that’s a fun way to come at it.
