   Judd Apatow:   
   	- All the good news has him a bit nervous.  He likes using clowns and goofy   
   guys, they're underdogs.  Plus they're available.  Lindsay Lohan?  She's in   
   rehab.  Tom cruise?  Somewhere in Germany.  Seth Rogan?  He's home playing   
   Guitar Hero, and Jonah    
   Hill is right next to him.   
   	   
   	- Seth Rogan was 16 on 'Freaks and Geeks'.  It was weird being the boss, and   
   he was 16; he thought he could hang out with them.  Rogan said, 'Whatever we   
   were gonna do, we ain't gonna do it now.'   
   	   
   	- Rumor is Clinton asked for a video of 'Knocked Up' for a plane flight.    
   Imagine that, him with his crowd, appreciating every joke ...   
   	   
   	- The bit in the movie where the ob/gyn wasn't available comes from real   
   life.  His doctor had been at a bar mitzvah.  They were racing to the   
   hospital, starting calling doctors even that they didn't like, who knew he   
   turned them down, and getting    
   disgruntled ob/gyns.   
   	   
   	- One, every time we asked a question, asked if they wanted to be the   
   doctor.  And he had enormous hands.   
   	   
   	- He had a potential project with the Rolling Stones; he were hired to write   
   a comedy for them, people following the Stones around.  There was a three-week   
   stretch where Mick Jagger called regularly.  He recorded everything Jagger   
   said, because he knew    
   it wouldn't last, and he could sample things for computer response messages.   
   	   
   	- They had to go to Toronto to pitch the movie.  Imagine trying to make Keith   
   Richards laugh.   
      
      
   Straylight Run:   
   	- From 'The Needles The Space': The Words We Say?   
      
      
   Conan O'Brien Reads My Home Address on The Air:   
   	- Nope, didn't have it.
