In Australia, I'm built up as this comedy hero, which was never my intention.

I don't just want to upset people and shock people by saying something really outrageous.

I went to a private boys' school, and we had girls in the last two years.

Religious humor is not really my area, so I probably wouldn't do anything about that, or politics or something.

I feel like I'm so normal. So normal it's boring.

Men should have more time with their newborn babies.
