Hi, we're Ben Stiller and Adam Scott. We have severed ourselves from the world for 5 years, making the workplace thriller Severance. While we have no memory of what happened during that time, we thought we should make a companion podcast for all the Innies who will have no recollection of watching, in an attempt to reintegrate them with their memory of the show. For seasons one and two, we did an ... more

  • The Emmy snubbed perfection!

    This is a perfect show. It’s crafted, written, directed, performed, etcetera, with perfection. The Emmys are just a contest, but man, when Adam Scott’s name was not called, I had anger issues. When Cold Harbor did not get the directing and writing Emmy’s, I lost hope in humanity. Ok that’s a bit melodramatic but hey, so is Tramell Tillman and he got some gold! Love you all.

  • Awesome!

    I love this podcast so much! The rewatch summaries are full of fun details behind the scenes. Between seasons these episodes are fascinating, clever, and creative, giving us something to enjoy before Season 3. Also, Ben and Adam have a balanced approach to discussions-love hearing from both of them!
