A year or so ago, you mentioned a trio of movies you're writing with Woliner. I remember one was about motivational speakers called Let's Do This, and one about an astronaut who has to go back into space to clear his name, or something like that. Can't recall the third one. Anyway, what's the status of those?

How are you possibly not fat from everything you eat? You tweet 49 times a week about doughnuts.

Any concern that Cousin Harris will grow up with some kind of complex after being mocked so relentlessly by a professional comedian? What do his parents think about your Harris material?

Do you feel that Indian/Asians are still being cast into certain stereotypical roles in hollywood and how do you think Indian/Asian-Americans can change that?

I see you eating tacos around my hood every now and then. Ricky's, taco zone, etc. Have you tried El Flamin Taco on Alvarado and Sunset? They have the best Al Pastor ever, which is roasted on a spit behind the truck. And you can have it in a California burrito. They fry the french fries for the burrito right before they put it in.
