    Joel McHale (Animal Control, Community) joins us again this week to spread out on the couch, share a bunch of laughs, and admire a room full of memorabilia. Joel talks about his experience with ADHD in this industry and how it has impacted his approach as an actor, including being the lead on Community. We also talk about keeping passion in your career, finding joy in restoring cars, and fist fights with Chevy Chase.

      i'm sure. but really what other questions are they going to ask that he will actually answer. How much fun was it playing with Allison Brie? Flirty and hot during years of shooting. Who might have hooked up with who? You had a great show with a great cast, and 1 of that cast was known to be a pain in the butt, grumpy and problems on the show. You aren't really going to have stories with others who weren't problems on a show.

      My theory is that he knows Pierce is written to be a *mostly* unlikeable, curmudgeonly asshole who's the old fogey behind the times and the butt of many, many jokes. And people LOVED his character, way more than anything he's done since the 80s. His pride couldn't handle that so he threw a years-long tantrum. Chevy Chase really is Pierce Hawthorne, and on some level he knows it.

      I used to think that, as well as it being his own confusion at the newer generational form of comedy, and just a strong miscommunication at that attempt at relating and imitation. One of the outtakes had him saying something like, "And then you get slapped in the face.", and it was after another outtake where Joel slapped Donald and no one was expecting it, and everyone just started laughing after Donald laughed. Plus my dad is at the age where he thinks we're all on the same page joking, when he actually said something dickish, so, maybe all that booze caught up?

      I'm probably reading too much into this, but the fact that Joel mentioned the Marc Maron interview here makes it seem like he just didn't say anything (anything nowhere near as telling as he did here) because Chevy didn't comment on it either. But Chase blaming them seems like it was the last straw.
      Like if you've seen other interviews Joel has done over the years he's never shied away from the fact that Chevy didn't want to be in Community, but he always seemed to come from a place of understanding. Here he just sounds hurt.

There is a reason for that, he isn't a likable guy. Martin Short? Steve Martin? best friends, never had anything to do with Chevy after the movies. SNL costars hated him.

    Knowing that Joey McHale fist-fought Chevy Chase gives me infinitesimally more respect for him.

    That had to be at Steel con a couple years ago. Beverly was there for Violent Night and Xmas Vacation. Chevy was there for Xmas Vacation. Michael was there for the Smallville reunion. Michael even went to were Beverly was at and said he found her shoe.

    Chevy, 30 years ago, would be playing McHale Jeff winger role. Can't handle the aging.

    Bill Murray knew this about Chevy back in the 1070s. “MEDIUM TALENT”

    Heard that John Candy was the only guy to control Chevy cuz he was just so big and strong and just wouldn't have it.

    "Hi, I'm Joel. Aren't you that dude from those sort of popular comedy movies from eighty years ago?"
