Summary

Ed Helms has a well-organized workshop, a banjo, a treehouse he built during the pandemic, and a deeply inconvenient habit of doing his best work at the last possible second. In the first episode of our new series Wired to Create, Kelly sits down with the actor, comedian, musician, and all-around maker to talk about what flow actually feels like, why limitations might be the secret ingredient in all great creative work, and what Owen Wilson taught him about feedback and being vulnerable. This episode was made possible by a grant from the Walton Family Foundation. To learn more, please visit: waltonfamilyfoundation.org. For those who have listened to this podcast and are curious: the correct, traditional term used is nunchaku (Japanese: ヌンチャク), but in English, nunchucks is the most common accepted spelling and pronunciation, often pluralized as "set of nunchucks".
