He also talked about how he felt about having to play host alone: “When things go wrong, you get kind of this weird gift from the universe to go, ‘Hey look, within 24 hours we have to completely redo this whole thing.’ And even if it didn’t work, it doesn’t matter. The trick is the experience of it. That’s really the key. We wanted to do a good job, we wanted to pull it off. We knew the car was on two wheels, right away we knew that. But we also knew that we put the effort in to make it to work. So if it didn’t, hey, that’s the universe man. It’s out of our hands. The universe is awesome and sometimes it’s a dick.”
