I always have a ping-pong table in the studio. If you're with an artist and you notice the situation is going south a little bit, it's like, 'You wanna play ping-pong or foosball?'

I see the same coffee table everywhere. It's mass marketing.
I think, in general, when you're doing comedy, you're having a good time regardless of the comedy table tennis that you're playing.
