"RE-RELEASE: Liam Neeson”

JASON BATEMAN, SEAN HAYES, WILL ARNETT
About this episode

Avid fly fisherman Liam Neeson brings his very particular set of skills (and his Stanley thermos) to the show this week. To Sean’s dismay, we don’t talk about Star Wars. However, of his over 100 film roles, we discuss Alfred Kinsey, Oskar Schindler… and Jesus. And the time he made Jason’s mom cry for a week.

This episode was originally released on 5/2/2022.
