From Public Radio International's Bullseye with Jesse Thorn:
Tony Hale is a comic actor best known to audiences as the precocious man-child Buster Bluth, from the cult hit FOX sitcom Arrested Development, but Hale had been working in commercials and doing theatre in New York long before his big break. His latest role sees him playing "body man" (think: bag-boy) to Julia Louis-Dreyfus's Vice President of the United States on the new HBO comedy series Veep, from the mind of brilliant British satirist Armando Iannucci.
Tony sits down with us to discuss the humor of the behind-the-scenes world of politics, how he famously sold a lot Volkswagons to the tune of Styx's "Mr. Roboto", and returning to the role of Buster when Arrested Development picks up again later this year for a fourth season. Veep airs Sunday nights at 10PM on HBO.

I think I'm campaigning to become Tony Hale's publicist. Everything I find online about him or from him is gold, before and after Buster Bluth. Wondering does he need a 'body man' (gender negotiable)?

My wife and I also loved Tony Hale in Ctrl, a great little webseries produced by NBC.
