For many, topics like cheating and lying hit pretty close to home, and I was surprised by some responses. I expected more introspection, open-mindedness, and forgiveness in general.

How do you get your inspiration to write someone like Derek? His jokes are always on point.
I practice jokes on my wife. The harder she punches me, the better the joke.
In real life, Derek's humor is pretty much my humor, so I often write my natural response for his dialogue lines. I practice a lot on it. When watching TV and the news, and there's a question being asked, I think of a funny response and say it out loud as fast as possible. It's a type of reaction comedy that helps me write funny jokes. My main source of inspiration for this comedy style is Anthony Cumia, who’s, in my opinion, the world’s greatest reaction comedian. Most of my biggest laughs ever have come from listening to his content.
I have come to the conclusion that if DPC and I ever met in real life, we would get along pretty damned well.
