About this listen

 My mother had a long friendship with Paul Reubens, and so by proximity I did too. For me, “Pee-wee as Himself” (now streaming on MAX), directed by Matt Wolf, was at the top of my list to stream when it aired. The two-part show looks at Reubens’ life and career as alter ego Pee-wee Herman, whose irreverent comedy took the world by storm in the 1980s. Matt joins me to talk about what it was like meeting a hero; the great level of control that Paul Reubens brought to all of his work – including this documentary; how Paul tried to rebound from the scandal that nearly ended his career, and how the film’s surprise ending came to be.
