If you keep up with pop culture, everybody knows the joke.

You lose your privacy, and sometimes, people don't see you as human.

We still have that same burn, to get that same kind of laughs. So whether the studio wants us to or not, we're going to do it. The money is just a byproduct of coming out with good stuff. Our whole thing is building that rapport with the audience.
