“Empathy is why entertainment is always growing, and for millennials, everyone is judging them and trying to grab their attention by insulting them. We're living in a time where everyone has 25 profiles, and they're having 25 conversations.”

“When I was in New York, I put together a show; I put together this really great band and performed at this place called Littlefield in Brooklyn. It was really fun.

“Pearl Jam sit down and have conversations about Kiss all the time on tour.”

“People are desperate for these breathier, longer, more in-depth conversations. And the only thing I can't provide in my show is the longer time.”

“When I'm around people having conversations about their day, I'm looking at them, like, 'What could they possibly be talking about? How are we not talking about deconstructing white supremacy right now? How are we not trying to save trans people?'”
