Radio Interview with Jason Segel
Jason Segel recently did a radio interview on the “Todd and Tyler Radio Empire”, while there isn’t a whole lot about HIMYM there is some stuff in there. Mostly they talk about his roles in Undeclared (which he is awesome legendary in), and Knocked Up. He talks about how he started writing, being naked, and his actor friends. One of the guys on the radio program apparently tried out for the role of Ted and is a bit bitter about not getting it.
There are two things I want to touch on. One, Jason makes a comment that most of the guys that like is work are a “interesting dudes” and that run of the mill people think he is boring. The way he says it, it sounds like he’s saying he gets a bunch of freaks who follow his work. I love most of the stuff he’s done but don’t consider myself a weird guy. What do you think? Am I just reading too much into this, or is that what you thought too?
Secondly, He talks about how on some of his other projects, he does a good bit of improv in. Do you think Bays and Thomas allow the same amount of improv?
Give it a listen below but be warned there are a couple naughty words.

I didn’t like how Jason Segel called Marshall a pushover. Sometimes he can be, but that’s not the first thing that comes to mind when I think of Marshall.
And then after he leaves, they start ripping on Josh Radnor. Obviously, he’s terribly jealous that he lost the role to him, but that’s no reason to just be a jerk about it. I think Josh is excellent as Ted.
