Josh: Sports is a very small part of my life. I can watch any specific sport and enjoy it, but I don't particularly care who wins.
Josh: A Jew is what I am. An actor is what I do.
Joshua: (On The Mighty Sorkin Players) There’s sort of an informal group of us that I think of as the Mighty Sorkin Players. I think what he sees in us as a crew are actors that are able to speak his dialogue in a natural way, in the rhythms that he hears in his head. He’ll tell you he has a very musical approach to writing. There are very specific cadences and rhythms. Some people naturally get it, some don’t. He likes to work with people, first of all, that he gets along with… I think that reflects nicely on him. He likes to be around his friends. He likes to employ them. And he likes to work with actors who can sort of make the dialogue come alive, the way he envisioned it.
