Hobo Radio Interview – Severance’s Kier Eagan, Marc Geller

Hobo Radio: A Pop Culture Podcast

AUDIO VERSION:

Any devoted Lumon employee hopes to hear the voice of Kier speaking to them. And while they may be prepared for him to speak in mysterious ways, it’s safe to say that they don’t expect to hear him via a Kier statue that’s doing bad comedy alongside Seth Milchick.

But that’s exactly what Mark and Helly got in the season two finale of Severance.

We talk to Marc Geller, who plays Kier on the show, about his unusual role, his desire to film a Kier flashback episode and what it was like working with Eric Andre on the Eric Andre Show.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • Interstitial – “Vishnu Meets Funk” and “Ancient Ritual” by Lucas PernĂ˝ & Miloslav Kollar
