Hello, Eric! Thank you so much for taking the time to read and respond to us fans.
I am an aspiring comedian. I've spent a lot of time observing your work in particular. You are a huge inspiration to me.
I notice your bits tend to have 3 perspectives: that of yourself/your characters, the public, and of the audience. With the ability to edit in post as well as your talent you are able to weave a multilayered experience that is very unique and powerful. As well as fucking funny.
So my question is, how would you tailor your work if you were to remove the audience's perspective? That is, how do you see yourself expressing your unique brand of humor without the camera and editing process? I'm curious to what extent you've used pre-recorded elements (I even wondered if your "I am the octopus" bit was actually your normal voice in real time or a recording of your edited voice that was playing.)
