Summary

Ed Helms is an actor, comedian, and bluegrass musician man. He is probably best known for his work on The Daily Show, for being a key member of Here Comes Treble on the American version of The Office, for having a trilogy of Hangovers and most of all for being one of the funniest people on the planet of Earth. On this extremely boomy version of BOOM TIME, Ed discusses growing up in Atlanta and what happened to his southern accent. He also tells us why he connected so much with the character of Andy Bernard from The Office, and how Andy morphed over the run of the series. Finally Flula and Ed jam out on a special musical collaboration that is not to be missed but is to be listened to. BOOM TIME starts right now – or when you hit play – hit play!
