Running Point, The Studio, and Ike's Busiest Chapter
At 47:18 · chapter starts 45:00
Will Arnett and the hosts take a moment to survey the scope of what Ike is currently doing: writing and executive producing Running Point (with Mindy Kaling and Dave Stassen), starring in The Studio Season 2 — which shot for two weeks in Venice and includes a Madonna guest appearance — and somehow maintaining family life with three daughters aged 8, 10, and almost 13. Ike credits his writing partner Dave Stassen as the true showrunner of Running Point. The hosts riff on Ike's wife's early bedtime preference versus his need to squeeze in 46 minutes of TV at the end of the night, and they salute Beef Season 2 and Carey Mulligan in equal measure. Will Arnett declares Carey Mulligan 'the most underrated actor of our generation' before Jason gently notes that calling someone underrated can itself sound backhanded.
