Back in the day, in film school, the director of Cedar Rapids, Miguel Arteta, visited to talk to our class, and he said that the tone of that movie could have been way different because of outside influence, because of who was in the cast and who was the lead in the film (Helms) and that it was basically a glorified independent movie (Fox Searchlight), but that he stuck to his guns and he basically was able to do a lot of what he wanted. I mostly asked him about The Good Girl since that was and probably still is, imo, the best performance I've seen from Jennifer Aniston.

Even if you become less popular, you can’t ever be as anonymous as you were before. And if you DO try to strike a balance or be more private, you’re labeled as ungrateful & unapproachable.

I love it when celebs talk about fame itself. It's really interesting to me because so few people know what it's like, and it's such a weird thing that I'm sure you'd have to actually have to experience. I'd never want to be like Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise famous, but I wouldn't being like Aaron Sorkin famous. People in the industry know and respect you, cinephiles might recognize you, but you're not having people like chase you down trying to get a photo or filming you on their phone at Starbucks.

A really good point on being really famous or being wealthy. You can't do the things you used to do, so you loose that social aspect of your life. Some adjust some don't. I'm friends with a really wealthy man, and a celebrity. Whenever they come back into town, we can't just hang out on the town. It's always like 'Old School' where a vehicle picks you up and you have no idea on the situation. Guy driving - "I can't reveal our destination."

I met Conan when I was like 17 or 18 as he was running out of an elevator at Rockefeller center into a taxi and still stopped to shake my hand. Think it was between 2000 and 2001. What a legend after all these years. I'm tall and he was towering over me lol.

So glad Ed’s grown his hair. He looks younger and better.

Interesting insight. Thanks for the conversation

Hangover was a great movie. I have watched it a number of times. It is a go to movie for me.

This story was much like his character arc in The Hangover. Was stuck up, constantly panicked and looked to do what others expected but then learned to relax.

Wow good to meet the real Ed I enjoyed him so much as Andy etc...

A lot of great spiritual insights here - the part about “don’t go changin’!” Is fascinating

The reference to Ed Helms in that one Workaholics episode always comes to mind when I see him

Had no idea Conan had a podcast?! Super excited!

I never cared for the Hangover movies, but I finally started watching the Office this year and love it. It's funny how you can get a total new appreciation for an actor, like Ed Helms here. I just knew him as that guy who was in those movies and then suddenly played Rusty Griswold in that not so great looking Vacation movie, but then I saw him killing it in the Office. Was the same for me with Will Arnett, he was in those Turtles movies I don't wanna watch (as a fan of the comic and the first movie from the 90's), and then came Arrested Development into my life - I can only say "I've made a huge mistake."

I'm glad you guys get to share these common experiences the audience can relate to.

We have a weird unwritten rule in Ireland that most (not all) people tend to follow and that is no matter who you are, unless your the Pope.. you're no better or no worse than the rest of us and if you try to be.. we'll take you down a peg. It just means that celebs come here and walk around and people leave them alone. Not out of respect, just for the pure fact that we don't want them thinking they're anymore important than anyone else. It's been a humbling experience for many I think (including the Kardiashians who walked through a major central park in Dublin and nobody gave a feck). Granted, this isn't always the case and you'll always have some fans eager to say hi or whatever but for the most part... you'll be left alone and you should remember that the reason is because we all think you've a big enough head already.
