H&F: What's the worst anybody's ever gotten hurt making an episode?

JC: In the first season, we were fucking gung-ho about everything. We didn’t figure out that there should be pads under the carpets so when Eric fucking hits the ground, he's not fucking ramming his backbone into fucking concrete. It took us a bruised up Eric Andre to figure that out.

Then there are moments where Eric would do something that no one was expecting and hurt himself. He does all of his stunts. All of that shit, him crashing through everything, is real. Season one, he tried swinging on a piece of the curtain that was ripped and he landed behind the set and he literally just fell straight on his back on the concrete. He was pretty well banged up after that, I remember.

Then he did a bit with Vivica Fox where he sat on the desk and went through it and really hurt himself then, too. That was early on in the season and he was not doing so well. At some point, we had to say to him, "Dude, don't do this stunt because you have to stay healthy, you've got to finish the show." We bring in really good stunt coordinators, some of the fucking top guys in the business, to help us see our way through some of these stunts and make sure Eric is as protected as he feels comfortable being.

At the end of the Kimmel interview he does this bit, where he pretends he's Jackson Pollock and he throws paint everywhere. This never made it to air. He was like throwing paint all over the set, rolling around in the paint, just going crazy. At the end of it, he stands up and he just starts pissing himself. He's covered in paint and he's pissing himself and Jimmy Kimmel's just like, "Holy fuck, what did I just get myself into here?" It was brilliant.

H&F: Who do you think the most revolted guest has been, thus far?

JC: I would say Lauren Conrad was the most revolted. She walked off the set. I had to go and talk to her publicist and I said to Lauren, “Come back to set, take what you have now, all this anger and how you feel about this and bring it back to the set.”

Afterwards me and Eric apologized to her and her team profusely. She had a whole fucking crew in there, all these fucking ding dongs, giving us dirty eyes, dirty looks, stink eyes. Then after we went in there and we apologized and we were like, “Oh, that was amazing. This is the kind of stuff we’re trying to do. We’re sorry to make you sick.” Her team and her just stormed out of there. We got a call from her agent and her publicist and they are like, “You guys are going to be blacklisted. No one’s going to fucking do your show.”

Our booking producer was really upset about the whole incident, but the silver lining of it all is that she signed all of her paperwork before she went on stage, so there was no way she could say, "You can't use footage.” She got upset because Eric threw up some fake vomit?
