Homer Simpson: “That’s it! You people have stood in my way long enough! I’m going to Clown College!” Bart, to the rest of the family: “I don’t think any of us expected him to say that.”
This classic moment from The Simpsons is pretty much how we felt after listening to Matthew McConaughey on Marc Maron’s WTF podcast. Relentlessly chill and honest, the True Detective star spoke candidly about the recent death of his father—and how his mother wouldn’t let the paramedics cover him up. And by “him,” we mean “Big Jim.”
“She kept ripping the sheet off, going: ‘Uh-uh, I want the world to see why his nickname was Big Jim. Don’t you cover him!’”
