Two special guests, Will Forte and John Solomon, join the pod this week to share their fond memories of making MacGruber, including their favorite moments with the legendary Val Kilmer. We dedicate this episode to Val, who passed away on April 1, 2025, and celebrate the joy, humor, and heart he brought to the screen and to those who knew him.
