Paul Feig on 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' [Replay]

This interview (with a different "One Quick Thing" segment) originally aired in November of 2022. It was our 1 year anniversary!

Starting off with his deep identification with the singularly obsessed Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) in CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND, Paul shares stories of his childhood as a sci-fi loving movie nerd, his adulthood as a newly minted horror fan, and a bunch of stuff in between. 

When this interview came out, Paul's latest was The School for Good and Evil, streaming on Netflix.  Paul and Jordan also discuss his series Welcome to Flatch. As of this re-release, his movie Jackpot!, starring Awkwafina and John Cena, has just come out on Amazon Prime.
