The Adam Scott Episode
Show notes
Adam Scott is a man who pulls off comedy and drama at a level that’s so high it’s unbelievable. Well, today he came over and he really left his mark. For starters he has a calm energy that gave us a calm energy, which gave Reggie a calm energy. And he sits in a way that no guest on this show ever has, which was thrilling. Along the way we learn whether he carries existential dread, how he and Ben Stiller linked up, and challenge him to a folding competition. He also takes us through the whole timeline of his friendship with Paul Rudd, whether his kids can beat him up, and what it was like being a struggling actor for 15 years balancing on dental floss. At the end he puts 5 drops of medicine in Dave’s ear. Thanks for watching us hang out with Adam Scott! We respect you!
