"How do you respond to critics who claim you're just trying to scare people?"

"It's nothing really serious. I just wandered a little too close to the harsh light of intense public scrutiny."

"Congratulations on getting your 'Courage Under Fire By Media' award."

'Don't worry, I'm not going to jump. I'm just screwing with the media.'

"These days I do a little sub-editing on the side too!"

"Thank you for coming into the studio tonight, your story is truly a fascinating one, however I've decided our time would be better spent reviewing my meteoric rise to celebrity status within this television network."

'It doesn't matter if you're right or wrong: it's how much face time you get in the news cycle.'

"Baldo, do you have a summer reading list?"

Nope, he's not a sidekick, but in some ways he's more important than one. PR.

"Let's say you've always wanted to make someone a mixtape to show them how much you care about them. What's the best order? Do you start with songs about how rich you are before moving on to the songs about love? Or vice versa?. . .What order would best simulate sincerity?"
