"It has been great for my career.

A lot of comics neglect or turn off a large portion of the population because they put preaching politics ahead of punch lines.

I want to make a broad range of people laugh so the joke comes first.

I don't care that some people hear Fox News and automatically don't like it even though they've never watched the show.

It would be silly to care what someone who hasn't drank milk thinks of milk."[37]

Comedic Style

Machi is known for his high-pitched voice, which he makes fun of himself.

Machi says that he and Mike Tyson are both men cursed with high-pitched voices.

"It's just how I am," he said.

"I really didn't plan it.

I think you can teach people some techniques to be funny but if they aren't funny in real life it's a tall mountain to climb."[37]
