Max Winkler: 我与Jake Johnson的友谊始于《New Girl》七年前，当时我们一起制作了一个网络剧。我们来自不同的背景，但一见如故，开始一起创作。我们写了很多无人问津的电影剧本，但我执导的第一部电影《Ceremony》邀请了他参演。后来，我通过朋友Liz Merriweather加入了《New Girl》剧组，并最终获得了执导机会。我和Jake的关系非常深厚，他就像我的哥哥，我会向他倾诉生活中的困难，他也会真诚地给我建议。
主持人: 我不知道你和Jake的关系这么深厚。Jake就像你的非官方经纪人，你会向他咨询工作上的事情。Lamorne也很真诚，会告诉你什么时候做错了。我曾试镜过《Fuck Buddies》的角色，但没有得到，但我很喜欢Liz的剧本。
