I learned a lot from just watching him direct in terms of process.
Hes such a multifaceted guy, interesting, smart guy.

Beyond that, on a personal level, its kind of weird in a way.
There is an element of that.

A lot of the episodes are based on Aziz and Alans personal experiences.
Im a weirdly obsessive personality.
For example, in theReligion episode…
I grew up a huge, huge Three 6 Mafia fan.
Theyre like the Beatles to me.
Im a deep Hypnotize Minds head.
So I got a reference to one of my favorite Three 6 Mafia songs on the show!

Me and my brother, growing up in the South, we were into pro wrestling.
If you hear any references to dumb s in the show, thats probably me.
A lot of weird, tangential bang out projects thats coming out.
