Dried fruit is a huge part of my diet. Mango, persimmon, banana.Collection: Diet
I love following my friend Tony Zaret on Instagram. He's a super funny comedian who makes these parodies of memes, and Instagram skits.Collection: Funny
Adnan Virk and I work so well together, he's got the terrific background from hosting 'Baseball Tonight.'
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'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 know a little bit about a lot of things. I don't go very deep in any one field, except maybe '90s baseball.
I never considered game show host as a career, but it's fun because I get to inject some of my comedy into it.
People on Twitter are saying I should replace Alex Trebek. Never honestly considered that, but... he's got a fantastic job.
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.
Everything is subjective, right? A question that's easy for you is hard for somebody else, and vice versa.
I love grocery shopping. It's one of my favorite things. I don't want to become an ordering-food-online person.
For my first few months at HQ Trivia, my life was - for the most part - the same as it had always been. Even at temple during the High Holy Days, I was having to explain to people exactly what I was doing, trying to convince them to download the app.
It's impossible for me to sleep late. I generally wake up around 9, 9:30. I wish I could get a solid nine hours; it's always around six.
If I'm in the shower sometimes I'll blurt out some lyrics to whatever song's in my head that day. It's a lot of Migos and Drake.
When people see me in public, they're usually like, 'Whoa, you're a real person.' It's as if they're seeing Pinocchio or a cartoon character come to life.
Since the beginning of HQ Trivia, when only 48 people logged in, the chat section was lighting up with comments such as 'This is so cool!' So, we hooked those early users with alluring graphics and sound, a fast-paced test of wits, interactivity with a live and entertaining host, and the lure of winning free money.
As with any social platform, there will always be trolls, but HQ Trivia has guidelines in place to ensure the chat vibes remain chill and family-friendly.
I've had my fair share of tweets, DMs, emails, Facebook Messages and friends trying to set me up with friends.
I think what HQ Trivia's done is taken the old-school idea of a trivia show - a quiz show - which has been around since the dawn of television, even radio, and made it a participatory event versus a spectator sport.
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.
I brought my personality to HQ. I injected my DNA into this thing. They gave me a blank slate to work with.
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.
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 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 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.
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.
