If you ever have an opportunity, if you have like rich grandparents and you're you're gonna go on a trip with them, take it 'cause you'll get a fly first class and you might get to sit next to Nelly. Which happened to me. But then our flight there was a mechanical error. The flight had to we had to get a new plane. I didn't get to sit next to Nelly the second time.

We're very sexual.

Anders Holm

Big breast, uh this season, yeah.

Blake Anderson

Yeah.

Young Hollywood

Um, okay, so talk to me about the weirdest thing that's happened on set.

Adam Devine

Uh, Ders did puke on me this season, which was weird.

Young Hollywood

I heard about that. How was that for each of you?

Adam Devine

Great for me.

Anders Holm

Yeah, it was good for him. And honestly like after the initial shock, loved it and that's what I'm into now.

Young Hollywood

You guys met doing improv. Was it an automatic bromance? Did one of you woo the others? How did this go down?

Adam Devine

I looked at Blake's curly little afro at the time. He had a tight little do. Uh and I was like, this is this is my guy for life, L-Y-F-E.

Young Hollywood

Oh, that's so cute. Yeah. I heard that you have it in the contract that you have to keep your hair long. Do you do you ever want to cut it or would you be rocking this do anyway?

Blake Anderson

Uh, this is a wig at this point.

Young Hollywood

Oh, yeah. Is it?

Blake Anderson

I cut my hair last season. I just had you know like like it starts to weigh you down and like it was just like it felt like a lot of negative energy but yeah, this comes off. So

Young Hollywood

Can we see you take it off?

Blake Anderson

Well, yeah, it's like a whole glue process that I have to ease it off and.

Young Hollywood

No, you guys are working on a movie, right?

Adam Devine

Yep.

Young Hollywood

Tell me about that.

Adam Devine

Mhm. Yep. Action comedy.

Anders Holm

Okay.

Adam Devine

Out of control.

Young Hollywood

Have you started filming it yet?

Adam Devine

We have not. No. Just rewriting it and trying to get it uh as funny and as tight as we can right now. And then hopefully we're hoping sometime this summer.

Anders Holm

It's cool. It's kind of like Die Hard-esque. Uh, we're in a hotel. Gets taken over by terrorists. We're the are we the only ones to stop 'em? No, but we do. So uh

Adam Devine

Well we yeah.

Anders Holm

Yeah.

Young Hollywood

Will you do your own stunts?

Adam Devine

No. Definitely not. I don't do stunts. I like to uh keep stuntmen working.

Young Hollywood

I love you guys. Thank you.

Adam Devine

Uh, I would have loved to. I don't know if I I tore my ACL shooting Workaholics this past season.

Young Hollywood

Did you? How did this injury happen?

Adam Devine

Uh, it was uh uh it was a sex sex accident. Yeah, yeah. Fell 35 feet into some sex, so. Uh no, it was stupid. I it was a basketball scene that we were doing. It was like we were doing a basketball montage of us just playing a ton. And uh my character is on steroids because he feels that that's how you win at basketball is to be just raging. So I'm like tackling people and and being all uh crazy and that's not how I hurt myself. Literally how I hurt myself was a ball bounced out of bounds. And I was like, I got it. And then I ran to get it and grabbed the ball and turned too quickly and my knee just exploded.

Young Hollywood

Oh no.

Adam Devine

Everyone thought I was joking too.

Anders Holm

Yeah, for like two minutes.

Adam Devine

Yeah, for two minutes, I'm on the ground going like, "Ah! Ah! Fuck! Oh! Ah!" And they're like, "We we're not you we can't use any of this. He's cursing everywhere."

Anders Holm

When people get really hurt, you see like like their their pain response. Some people just get really quiet or some people scream.

Adam Devine

Yeah, some people make that weird like uh air letting out of a tire sort of noise. Uh, and I just say every curse word that I know as loud as I can.

Young Hollywood

Okay, so I have one more question for you. Um, you guys are producing the show, you created it, you write it, you act in it. Um, being so young, what's it like being a boss to people that I imagine are older than you that work on the show?

Adam Devine

It was It's very weird the first time around.

Anders Holm

Yeah. First season you're just talking to a bunch of dads like this is what we need to do.

Adam Devine

Telling them what to do.

Anders Holm

Yeah. This is how we're gonna make this butt hole joke the funniest, okay? You're on board, right?

Adam Devine

Yeah, the first time like my dad came on set I think was the first time that he like like he was like, "Jesus, there's like uh there's like men my age here. Like holding lights and stuff." I'm like, "Yeah, yeah, they're they're working." He's like, "And you're and you're like the boss of all these guys." I'm like, "Uh-huh."

Young Hollywood

He's like, "Well, thank you guys so much for chatting with us."
