Sketch Quotes
Where every finished idea begins.
This set covers sketch in two senses - the comedy-writing kind, rewritten around a table until the jokes land, and the drawing kind, the pencil outline a dress or a film starts from before anything is fixed. Both share a respect for the rough first pass, a theme also found in our Creativity collection.

I was always a big fan of Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner's '2000-Year-Old Man' sketch. I think it's one of the biggest influences on the podcast, definitely. You'd never say Carl Reiner was the funniest dude on there, because he's just teeing it up, but he knows what questions to ask to lead to great improv.

The gummy bears tattoo was my idea. It's my son's favorite candy. The sketch was my other son's idea. It's a self-portrait of himself. I just showed the artist his sketch and had him tattoo it on my forearm. It looks like a stick person with big hair. It's pretty funny.
