Will Arnett's 'Rank A--hole' Comedian Guest Cut Short
3 Feb
Summary
- Arnett, Hayes, and Bateman ended a 10-minute recording with a guest.
- A female comedian feared her career would suffer from out-of-context quotes.
- Matthew McConaughey previously had a disastrous recording session.
Will Arnett, co-host of the Smartless podcast, shared on The Romesh Ranganathan Show that he, Sean Hayes, and Jason Bateman had to cut short a recording with a comedian they described as a "f---ing rank a--hole." The segment was terminated after only ten minutes, with Arnett humorously suggesting the guest's identity would be astonishing.
Furthermore, Arnett disclosed that a female comedian also requested her Smartless episode not be released. She expressed concern that her career, which she viewed as up-and-coming, might be jeopardized by potential misinterpretations of her remarks.
The podcast hosts have faced other production challenges, including a previous failed recording attempt with Matthew McConaughey. Arnett recalled technical difficulties during that session, which led to Jason Bateman experiencing a significant meltdown, resulting in the cancellation of the recording.
