I am the corporation’s problem,” he told his staff, according to audio obtained by Status.

By Dustin Rowles | Celebrity | April 22, 2025 A few weeks ago, in writing about the new Kate Hudson series, Running Point, I joked about the casting heirarchy for funny, sarcastic douchebag supporting characters in comedies, putting Ike Barinholtz (a co-creator on the series) at the top, Scott MacArthur (his stand-in on the show) next, followed by Ike’s brother Jon Barinholtz, Scott’s brother Hayes MacArthur, and finally, David Walton.
