درباره این اپیزود
Actor Jon Heder joins the show to talk with Matt Leinart and Jerry Ferrara about his time alongside Matt on Fox’s new reality game show Nation’s Dumbest. Heder tells the guys what got him to join the show, what were his worst subjects, how it was getting to know the cast and compete against them. Plus, Matt gives Jon a little impromptu trivia on his worst subject: Sports. Then Jon talks his star turn as Napoleon Dynamite, how the movie’s success mirrors that of 2026 hits like Obsession and Backrooms and what it’s like to get back into that character. Finally, Jon talks his infamous collab with Kanye and Jay Z and his latest films Waltzing with Brando and Tapawingo, before Jerry has his own round of trivia.
