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

  • Too many celebrities

    I get that Ben Stiller grew up in the industry so I understand why he would reach out to famous friends who have nothing to do with the show as guests, but I think celebrities have a hard time understanding that they’re not that interesting to listen to. I absolutely love hearing from the actors, the directors and everyone involved in the process but could genuinely not care less about what Jimmy Kimmel or Kristen Bell have to say. If anything they’re very self important and so focussed on being... more

  • The one episode to listen to if you listen to only one

    This is a great behind-the-scenes look at a great show. But the reason I’m writing this review is because I just listened to the episode on S1E7: Defiant Jazz. Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard had me busting out laughing. Their “go to two” routines and Kristen’s impersonations of Patricia Arquette are priceless.
