Trivia
His "How Did This Get Made?" podcast was inspired by all of the conversations he's had with his friends, after seeing a horrible movie. Specifically, Scheer credits a discussion he had with his future co-host, Jason Mantzoukas, about Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps (2010) as the inspiration for the podcast.
