Its all been very flattering and fun. It's a thrill to be recognized. I don't know, if it gets to the point like Tom Cruise, who can't walk down the street.

I know a little bit about a lot of things. I don't go very deep in any one field, except maybe '90s baseball.
I feel like HQ has been a force for good and it's brought together this amazing community.
It's nice to hear from fans directly.
I am the host with the challah French toast.
My background is in comedy.
I've added up all the hours of zzz's I've missed in my lifetime, and it turns out I'm running on a rather substantial deficit.
I've never thought of myself as a good-looking guy, necessarily.
Usually if you have an idea, you have to first pitch it to a production company, get them on board, then go around and pitch to networks.
I was 20 years old and I said, 'Okay, if I can't get on TV by 25 then I'll consider another career.' You have to give yourself these arbitrary deadlines just to keep yourself focused and on track.
There are some really funny people doing creative stuff with social media, which is sadly where a lot of my attention goes.
I grew up as a Food Emporium and Waldbaum's and A&P kid, and Trader Joe's came with their own line of products that all seem healthy, even though they probably aren't. That said, I do love the dried fruit because it's made without the sulfates and the sulfur dioxides and preservatives and is totally delicious.
I transplanted my brain into 'HQ' and that's where the dark corners of my mind got exposed: Pop culture, '90s baseball, 'Simpsons,' 'Seinfeld,' 'Mr. Show,' Phish, Grateful Dead.
I auditioned for 'HQ' and got it. I decided to stay in New York and ride this 'HQ' thing out. That was a good decision.
I brought my personality to HQ. I injected my DNA into this thing. They gave me a blank slate to work with.
In 2008, I started a sports talk show called '12 Angry Mascots.'
I've been doing comedy in New York since 2007.
People on Twitter are saying I should replace Alex Trebek. Never honestly considered that, but... he's got a fantastic job.
I'm no Robert Christgau or Chuck Klosterman, but I would say that Landlady is like if Harry Nilsson was produced by Brian Eno. Or, if David Byrne fronted Wilco. Those are my two hoity-toity musical epigrams.
I would love to see the first people to get married from HQ. Maybe they'll meet in the chat and name their first child Scott.
I got my first baseball cards as a four-year-old, the 1989 Topps set. I got every Topps set after that.
HQ kind of hearkens back to that old method of watching live television, when you couldn't DVR it.
Nothing in my decade-plus entertainment career has meant more to me personally and professionally than my involvement with HQ.
I believe the best way to celebrate the holidays is to spread cheer and joy to others.
I wouldn't follow me on Instagram.
My favorite elements of 'Start Talkin'' were those man-on-the-street pieces. I love shooting those. I was born in Manhattan, have lived in or around New York my entire life, and I feel like I'm in my element when doing those pieces.
I like what Lauren Duca and Alexandra Petri come up with when they're tweeting about politics.
I'm a podcast guy!
This is what I spend money on, dried fruit.
My dad had me in little baseball outfits and bats in the crib.
When you get started in comedy, you're at the bottom of the totem pole. Not only are you not getting paid at these open mics. You're actually paying to do them.
People think I have elfish ears.
This is the evolution of television. It just keeps evolving from three networks, four cable networks, satellite. Now there's Internet channels and the phone.
You know, 'Jeopardy' has been on the air for 30 years, I don't see why HQ can't run for 30 years.
I never considered game show host as a career, but it's fun because I get to inject some of my comedy into it.
The Internet was supposed to bring people together, but it's created big divisions.
Adnan Virk and I work so well together, he's got the terrific background from hosting 'Baseball Tonight.'
All my life, I've been obsessed with baseball.
I'm sort of an old soul, and 'You Bet Your Life' with Groucho Marx is the best game show of all time, in my opinion.
If anyone has an MiLB franchise they're looking to gift for tax purposes, I'll take it! Not picky.
There are so few jobs for comedians on networks, that taxi TV and elevator TV and all this stuff are what I and every other comedian now are gunning for.
I'm a rock star at the WeWorks and tech centers of New York.
I feel like I have been putting out a consistent body of work, just waiting for that agent, that executive, that assistant to the bigwig to stumble across it.
I love following my friend Tony Zaret on Instagram. He's a super funny comedian who makes these parodies of memes, and Instagram skits.
I actually noticed how much I love my Sonicare because my friend got me a Quip, which I'll take with me when I'm traveling, but is not as great a toothbrush.
I am a very bad sleeper. There are lots of times when I'm trying to fall asleep at someone's place, and if they don't have blackout curtains, I am waking up with any amount of sunlight.
To see the viewer count grow for 'HQ,' it moved so quickly and that was the most thrilling ever.
Everything is subjective, right? A question that's easy for you is hard for somebody else, and vice versa.
I don't wear mascara. No mascara.
I get a kick out of replying to people on Twitter sometimes if I make a joke.
