His family found an old desktop, plugged it in and attempted to prepare it for the interview. \u201cThey were all USB things, and I was like, \u2018I don\u2019t think I can, it won\u2019t work,\u2019\u201d he recalled.<\/p>\n<p>With the home computer unable to handle the podcast setup, Olyphant traveled to an office and used a machine there instead. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of sacrifices that went into this, guys,\u201d he joked. \u201cAnd don\u2019t get me wrong, I\u2019m super honored, and it is a pleasure to be here.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>His Phone Handles Most of His Digital Life<\/h2>\n<p>Arnett appeared impressed by Olyphant\u2019s low-tech routine, while Bateman remained skeptical that he owned no laptop or tablet. \u201cI got like a, you know, I got a phone and I got a thing,\u201d Olyphant replied without identifying the second device. \u201cThat\u2019s all you gotta do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bateman asked whether he at least owned an iPad with a stylus or felt tempted to purchase a computer to explore artificial intelligence and the wider online world.
