H. Jon Benjamin, known for voicing iconic animated characters like Bob from Bob’s Burgers and Archer from Archer, is back with his most unexpected passion project: the Jazz Daredevil. In an interview with Kyle Meredith, Benjamin talks about his latest release, The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack of the (Unproduced) Film: The Jazz Daredevil. Listen to it now.

Of the new soundtrack, Benjamin reveals that it is indeed the soundtrack to an unproduced Jazz Daredevil film; there’s even a full script, rejected by countless studios, but Benjamin isn’t deterred. “We made an entire soundtrack to a movie that doesn’t exist, but maybe someday will,” he quips. “We made the soundtrack first… maybe there’s a chance we’ll make the movie."

With tracks like “Limo Ride” and “Murder Plot,” the new album is filled with cinematic moments and chaotic, offbeat humor. Benjamin even ropes in collaborators like Brendan Small (of Metalocalypse) to create a metal track, adding yet another layer of absurdity. Despite its chaotic nature, the soundtrack offers a unique glimpse into Benjamin’s world — a mix of jazz, metal, and twisted comedy.

Elsewhere in the episode, Benjamin discusses dipping his toes into dramatic territory over the years, such as his role in Master of None and a new indie film called Familiar Touch, which premiered at the Venice Film Festival. “I had to cry for that one, and I was terrified I’d ruin the movie," he says
