We had, well, look, we're keeping the parks and rec hits coming, because we had Adam Scott last week, and we have the great, beautiful and wonderful Aubrey Plaza joining us. Aubrey, who many of you have wanted to hear from, is here, and we couldn't be more excited. And we talk about a lot of things today. We talk about how we first met on a playground. We talk about her time as an NBC page and why she got fired. We talk about her love of basketball, and we talk about her new movie, "Honey, Don't," which is in theaters this week. And so, there's just so much good stuff, and we're very glad that she was here and that you're here listening. And we always start our episodes the same way. We try to find someone that knows our guest, knows something about them, and has a question for them. And we are talking to a great actress today. You know her from the substance and maid and many other great films and her beautiful dancing, and it is the beautiful and talented Margaret Qualley. Margaret? Hello. This episode is brought to you by Zoom. Many of us have been there. The calls were you zone out for one second and miss six key points.

Zoom is now a full system of action that can actually complete work from the context of your existing meetings, calls, and chats. No more post-call panic, no more inbox avalanche. You talked about it. Zoom got it done. Visit zoomahead.com to learn more. Where are we talking to you from? I'm home. I'm home and I'm in the hallway. Okay, perfect.

It's really good to see you, and I know you're doing press. I've been listening to it. It's so good. Thanks, Margaret. Today is a very special day, because we have really our most requested guest coming on today. People have really, really wanted to hear from and hear me and Aubrey talk about a lot of things, and I'm just so psyched she's here. It might be the most unanimously loved person ever. Even my dad's really not... He barely has a phone. He doesn't have a TV, but when he found out I was doing a movie with Aubrey, he was like, "Ah, I'm f*cking lovers. Like, man, she's so funny. He was so excited. She reached my dad." She's got the dads. She's got everybody. I just love her. I just think she's the best. You know, it's so funny you say that too, because I was thinking she's also kids really like Aubrey, because she acts like a cat, right? Dogs come and meet greet you at the door, but cats just kind of chill and wait for you to come to them, and kids really like that. She never... I remember my boys on the set of parks, and she would just walk by and say something to them. On the way past them, and they'd be like, "Who was that?" I'd also imagine that she'd talk to a kid like an adult. Yes. Just leave them where they are, like, rough out there, right? Totally. Yeah. She's really... As the people like to say she appeals to four quadrants. Yeah. And you guys have worked together. Is this... Is Honey Don't, which is a film that you're both are in, that you're the star of. Congratulations coming out very soon. It looks so great. And is this the first time you've worked together with the two of you? Yeah. We met on set. I was... I've been such a big fan of hers for such a long time, and I think Parks and Rec was probably my intro to her, which is just like one of the best shows of all time, and you guys together are so special. But I've felt like I think she has that quality where you feel like you know her even when you don't. So I already loved her so much even for meeting her, and I would have been so bummed if she didn't like me. I'm projecting on this on you, so I don't tell me if I get... I'm getting it wrong. But
