Nick Offerman joins Geoff Bennett on our ‘Settle In’ podcast

Episode 339 | 5m 46s

In the latest episode of our podcast, "Settle In," Geoff Bennett speaks with actor Nick Offerman. Since playing the curmudgeonly libertarian Ron Swanson on NBC’s Parks & Rec, he’s avoided being typecast, most recently portraying President Chester Arthur in Netflix’s “Death by Lightning.” They discussed that role, his latest book, “Little Woodchucks,” a guide to woodworking for kids, and much more.
