Even though you’re telling a story about making a movie, which is not something that everyone has done, at the end of the day it’s not really a story about making a movie as much as it’s a story about relating or not getting along or being fucking befuddled by people.

Smith's oblivion as to how the Hollywood cog turns makes for interesting stories and explains his tiffs with fellow directors P.T. Anderson (Magnolia) and Tim Burton, both of which are well documented in the program.
Smith has previously referred to his movie Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back as his "$20 million dollar dick and fart joke."

Smith's constant stream of F-bombs is matched only by audience members' requests to perform sexual acts on him or do drugs with him after the program.
