Q: Thank you Nic for taking the time to talk to us today and answer some questions. A: Hey, no problem, fire away. Q: How did you become a pirate? A: I'm not a pirate. Q: Sorry wrong set of questions, what is a typical day in your life? A: Wake-up, maybe pass my roommate in the elevator, shower routine, short meditation, go to work or auditions, come home and facebook, read, play piano, write, call mom, and maybe some play time, fight crime, listen to ipod and go to bed. Q: If you were to write your memoirs tomorrow, what would you name them? A: "Nic Stanich Saved Your Life" or "Being A Superhero isn't Easy" Q: When did you decide to drop the "K" from Nick and go by Nic? A: Sometime around 8th grade, I realized that people that spell their name Nicholas use a K in Nick, my name is spelled Nicolas, so no K. Also Nic Cage spells it like that. Q: Who are you dating? A: I knew you would ask that question, but I don't deal with my personal life in interviews. Q: Do you mind if we call you E-40? A: That doesn't make any sense. Q: Have you ever actually ghost rode your whip? A: Yes sir, twice actually.

Music determines my day for me, changes my mood, wakes me up, dresses me, puts me to sleep. I have music on almost 82% of the time. And there would be no dancing, so I'd lose my edge. Q: What? A: Nothing. Q: No what is it? Somethings wrong, I can tell, what? A: No I'm fine, really.

I didn't know how to say it then, but I was scared that you weren't liking the answers I was giving in the interview, and I know thats stupid because obvious you like them or you wouldn't keep asking me, but I just thought for a second that you might be over it and I got nervous.
