- I saw you had done, as well, the push-up challenge, which was fun. You're keeping busy.

ALAN AISENBERG: I kind of did it. Um, I saw everyone challenging-- everyone is challenging each other, which I think is great. You got to stay active. But I wanted to put a spin on it, so I did it naked from the waist down.

- Which is how I do all my interviews, frankly, because now we can.

ALAN AISENBERG: Yeah. 50/50 shot we're both wearing pants right now.

- Exactly. And to be fair, if you ever went to the Build studio, I did them there, too, pantsless. They just never shot above the waist, so nobody knew that. That was--

ALAN AISENBERG: Absolutely. Everyone says when Matt is doing an interview, no wide shots. That's the rule.

- Exactly. That's the-- you know, I can tell you're a fan.

ALAN AISENBERG: --shot at that point, I guess, right?

- Yeah, at that point, it would be. As someone who has a very bingeable show launching on April 10th-- nice plug, thank you-- what are you watching? You know, what are you catching up on? Are you re-watching stuff? What's in the queue right now for Alan? What do you doing?

ALAN AISENBERG: I just started "The West Wing," which I've always wanted to do.

- Really?

ALAN AISENBERG: It has been at the top of my list, and I've never had the-- the energy or the time, and I was very excited to, like, plow through it. And then I'm realizing that it is the exact opposite of escapism, so.

- I was gonna--

ALAN AISENBERG: It's an awful time to watch "The West Wing," but I get an episode a day. And after that episode, I'm, like, cool. Now something light and fun.

- Yeah.

ALAN AISENBERG: So you know, go into the office every so often and just to watch an episode of something silly. I just re-watched all of Tim Robinson's show, which-- "I Think You Should Leave." That's just joy. "Astronomy Club," also on Netflix, is incredible. Yeah. I'm just watching, like, light stuff and then "The West Wing."
