Parks and Recreation star and beard god Nick Offerman really loves The Simpsons. He was basically gushing over the opportunity to lend his voice to the show in a recent Entertainment Weekly interview. 

When they asked Offerman if being on the show was on his bucket list:


“It was outside of the realm of the bucket, like, ‘Well, there’s no way I’m ever going to get on The Simpsons. I might get a nice job on TV or maybe I’ll get to do a scene with Patrick Swayze’—which I did, I got a goddamn scene with Swayze, I was so happy—’but I’m not going to get on The Simpsons. They’re writing parts for Paul McCartney.'” He pauses. “So basically I’m now like a Beatle.”

The episode, in which Offerman plays a "drunken jackass" of a sea captain, airs tonight on Fox.
