I've always been a horrible public speaker. If I had to give a presentation, I would cry.
I'm a real street-ball player. I like to do silly tricks and show off.
I don't really take myself too seriously.
I do hour-long shows all over the country almost every day.
I'm a one-take kind of guy.
I set out to be a comedian, and then the spokesperson thing is kind of just something that came along with it.
Soccer is the international language. If you bring a soccer ball with you to any other country, you can make friends instantly.
I'd be the only disabled kid in the neighborhood playing football, and we're playing full contact, and I'd always manage to get open.
But the good thing about performing every night is I don't have any excuse not to try something new every day.
I was walking downtown and the drunk tank stopped and picked me up... I was like, 'Wait a minute here fellas, there's a misunderstanding. I'm not drunk. I have cerebral palsy.' They were like, 'That's a pretty big word for a drunk.'
The whole opportunity of being on 'Last Comic' gave me the chance to display me being funny on and off stage.
Denver is home to me. It's my everything. It's where my children are, where my lady lives, where I have my house.
I'd love to see a sitcom about someone with cerebral palsy.
I'm pretty open as far as my personal life is concerned.
My jokes are pretty over the top sometimes.
I want people to think I'm funny, and to make them laugh.
The more exposure any big comic with a disability gets will open more doors for the rest of us and help change people's attitudes.
I feel like every person has a disability in some way. Whether you're dyslexic or Republican or whatever.
I don't do much political stuff because our nation is so divided, we can't say one thing without the other side automatically assumes that you are pro the other side.
I pull my material from daily life.
Now that people know who I am, I don't really have to talk as much about the disability stuff.
I used to do a lot of pratfalls on stage. And I tell you, when a guy with cerebral palsy falls down on stage on purpose - nobody ever knows if it was real or not.
Honestly, I wish I could bring more of Colorado with me everywhere.
I memorize stuff that I know works, and then 25 percent is just feeding off the audience and going where they want to go. Sometimes things flop. That's where the jokes come in.
I was on the U.S.S. Ronald Reagan aircraft carrier. That's an experience I'll never forget.
I started out not doing jokes about my disability. I just talked about my life. But I've found that if I don't broach the subject, people are kind of like, 'C'mon, talk about it.' They want to hear about it.
The thing about my comedy is that I'm so comfortable with my disability that you don't have a right to be uncomfortable.
The more I move on stage, the more people are just drawn to the movement. The way that I walk and my gait - it's very eye catching. And the way my hand hooks and moves on its own - it's almost hypnotic.
When you're a dad, there's a ton of material there with your family.
