Q. Growing up in Shaker Heights, did Ohio and the Midwest have an effect on your comedy?

A. “The big acts used to come through downtown Cleveland. I would see a lot of stage shows. I saw Danny Kaye, Jack Benny, Lionel Hampton, Spike Jones and his City Slickers. As a kid, you would go down to The Palace on Saturday and you would sit through the movie, sit through the comic, then everyone would leave and you would move down closer, and you would sit through the movie and the comic again. That was very influential. You got to see Hollywood stars. About a year ago, my wife and I were invited to a magic show in Hollywood at the Pantages Theater. We were in the very front row. This comic came out with died blonde hair, and he was kind of effeminate, and he did very funny jokes. I just flashed back to the years where I was so influenced by that and thought, ‘I’d like to do that.’ ”

Q. Was there a point growing up when you knew you had a knack for comedy?

A. “I was usually the class clown in school. I would always make remarks and get in trouble. Growing up, I really wanted to be a baseball player. Then, for a while when I got out of school, I wanted to be like a cowboy star in the movies. I went to an acting school in New York and teamed up with another guy (Vic Greco) who had a good sense of humor, and we had a comedy team. I just found that comedy came a little easier to me than serious acting.”

Q. Norm Macdonald paid you a great compliment. He said that you out-improvise all these great improvisational comics who hire you to work in their films. Speaking to that, how would you describe the chemistry you have with the fellow iconic comedic actors and actresses in the Christopher Guest films?

A. “I started out just being a fan of them. I loved SCTV, and I kind of knew Eugene Levy and Catherine O’Hara and Joe Flaherty. I had seen Christopher Guest’s work, so when I got the chance to work with him, I was really tickled, and I felt like I was in the same wavelength as they were. I just fell into it very nicely. Luckily, Christopher Guest has cast me in every one of his movies and TV shows since then. That’s been very nice.

“I’m very pleased to hear Norm Macdonald said that about me, because I’m a huge fan of his. He did a series called “A Minute with Stan Hooper.′ It was one of the funniest shows I’ve ever been attached to. I’m still good friends with Norm. He’s one of my favorite comics.”

Q. You’re in a rare minority in that you were around when Cleveland sports teams were winning championships. Do you still follow the Indians?

A. “I do. I was really disappointed they didn’t get in the World Series this year. I wasn’t too disappointed that they lost last year, because I was just so thrilled they got into it and lasted seven games. As you probably know, the last World Series they won was 1948. I remember as a little kid being at the big parade downtown when they came home from Boston. One thing that annoys me, a lot of times the stadium is empty until they’re winning, and then it’s packed. I could never understand that. It’s still Major League Baseball. I remember when I would go home to visit my folks, and I would go down to the stadium. I’d say I’d like a box seat by the first-base dugout. And they’d say, ‘Here you are,’ and you would go sit in the front row anytime you wanted. But then when they moved to Jacobs Field, then you couldn’t get a ticket for a couple years.”

Q. Jeff Heath was your favorite, right?

A. “I loved Jeff Heath and another guy named Pat Seerey. In 1948, they traded him before the World Series. Then he went to the Chicago White Sox and in one game he hit four home runs. I remember following him when he came out of the clubhouse that day. I don’t know how many kids there were around him, but he stood and signed every kid’s autograph, and I’ll always remember that. I still have an autograph book with a lot of the autographs. Pat Seerey was one of my favorites, because he was a guy who would strike out or hit a home run. He was one of the those big, round-faced guys with a sloppy uniform. I loved him.”

Q. And your “Best In Show” character Buck Laughlin based on catcher and broadcaster Joe Garagiola?

A. “It was. Christopher Guest gave me a tape of the Westminster Dog Show, and he said ‘You’re the color guy. Don’t learn anything about dogs, because he doesn’t know anything about dogs.’ I still had to study and learn a little about them, and I patterned my character on his rhythm and the way he would talk and do those jokes. That really helped me.
