Q&A with ‘Parks & Recreation’ curmudgeon Nick Offerman who’s hosting the Spirit Awards with wife Megan Mullally
This year, the show has moved up a few weeks from its traditional post on the Saturday before Oscars and will air live on IFC and AMC+ on March 6 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern.
Otherwise, the Spirit Awards are going back to their roots for an afternoon fete in a beachside tent in Santa Monica with a batch of truly independent nominees, from “Zola,” the based-on-a-Twitter-thread tale of a few sex workers on a wild trip to Florida, to “Pig,” in which Nicholas Cage plays a recluse forced back into society to hunt for his stolen truffle hunting companion.
Offerman took a few minutes from his home in Los Angeles to speak to The Associated Press about hosting this year, Mullally’s absence from the interview and what to expect from the show.I think you and Megan are the first married couple to host the Spirit Awards.Oh that’s a great question. Are Nick Kroll and Mulaney not married apparently? They were just dating?Megan sends her apologies. We like to do these things together but we had a boisterous night of love making so she’s now resting.
AP: Some of your “Parks and Recreation” co-stars have preceded you as host. Have you looked to any of them for advice?Not so much advice. The fun thing about doing gigs like this is the most powerful weapon we can bring to bear is our personalities. I’ll talk to Aubrey Plaza about advice for the overall vibe or sort of steering the magic of the evening. But beyond that, you know, she participates in black magic and other witchery and that’s not our thing.
And I’ve started a new experiment, a Substack, which is a thing people can subscribe to where I write a couple of times a week a sort of a humorous/earnest question-and-answer-like inspiration column. It’s called Donkey Thoughts with Nick Offerman. I also then record audio versions of it so that people can listen to it or, rather, I understand a lot of people will play my voice to put their children or spouses to sleep if they’re experiencing distemper or digestive problems.
