Lije, Jay Mohr has a role in this film. I saw him do stand-up recently and he looks completely different than we see him in the film. He was very open about losing weight and how great his recovery has gone, and obviously, it was a very personal subject matter for him as well. How was it working with him on this film?Jay was awesome. He’s a pro. He showed up, and he really brought it home. I asked Johnny; he was watching those two together was some of my favorite stuff.

Johnny, this cast is just stacked, which is hilarious. People like Theo Von, Bobby Lee — how unique was this set? I imagine people were riffing constantly.Constantly. I live in such a bubble. I don’t know who anyone is a lot of times. And I came on the set and Theo Von — I don’t know who anyone is, so he was hilarious all day long saying the most absurd, random things. I’m like, “Who is this guy? He’s so funny.” And now I know who he is.
