EP. 163 — Search Committee, Part 2 with Rainn Wilson 

This week we’re breaking down the second part of “Search Committee”, and we are joined by Rainn Wilson! The hunt for the next manager continues and Jo Bennett (Kathy Bates) arrives to help out. Rainn shares what it was like to play Dwight during the Dunder Mifflin manager transition and he also shares a Creed episode he pitched to the writers. Then the ladies and Rainn discuss his new book, “Soul Boom: Why We Need a Spiritual Revolution”. Later Angela shares what people lie about on their resumes and Jenna finds a “chunk it” reference from “Modern Family”. This is a great Season 7 finale so tell your family at Finger Lakes that you’re on a hike so you can enjoy it!
