    I talk to my cat. All the time. Probably a little too much. Animals are great healers.

    Also, I love Roy, and i love this conversation. Two comedy greats!

    Absolutely love Roy. Kept me going on the Daily Show post-Stewart. I’m not one bit surprised to learn his dad was a civil rights hero.

    Love Roy’s heckling stories. The bit with him making of Mike Cameron on Katie Nolan’s podcast is incredible.

    don’t forget Soul Train came after cartoons, so like if his dad was serious war correspondent journalism…. that animated train isn’t really for him. Good one.

    Love him. Cracked up when on the Daily Show they played up that he was middle aged. “Do you remember the Kennedy assassination?” “How old do you think I AM???”
