Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
Allison Jones (Award-Winning Casting Director)

And it was probably about 2003, because I remember I just finished the pilot of The Office, and Mitch Hurwitz had asked me to do the pilot of Arrested Development, and I couldn't do two pilots at once. It was too torture, so I couldn't do the pilot. Deb Borilski did the pilot. Many podcasts name me as the person who did the pilot of Arrested. I just did the seasons.

I had met him on a wonderful pilot called Advances in Chemistry that the very brilliant Richie Rosenstock did again ahead of its time. But he came in to audition for The Handsome Kid.
