Parks and Recreation star Rob Lowe and writer/producer and Mouse Rat bassist Alan Yang are joining forces with Parks and Recollection to take listeners and fans alike behind the scenes of the beloved TV show.

The podcast is set to feature appearances from the cast and crew of the popular NBC show and even reveal secrets from some of fans’ most beloved moments. The show is a part of a new segment of Conan Obrien’s new digital media brand and podcast company Team Coco. According to Entertainment Weekly, it promises to reveal to fans everything from the origin story of Li’l Sebastian to the making of The Cones of Dunshire.

The trailer for the podcast reveals some unexpected tidbits including some of the “heated arguments” that occurred amongst the writers when deciding whether or not Andy (Chris Pratt) and April (Aubrey Plaza) should end up together. In a statement, Rob Lowe said, “This is literally the best, second best, or third best idea for a podcast I’ve ever heard. Whether you’re a Parks and Recreation fan or not, this one’s going to be fun!”

Yang also chimed in and said, “I couldn’t be more excited to co-host Parks and Recollection. Also just to let you know, in another ten years, I plan on co-hosting another podcast about the making of this podcast called Parks and Recollection Recollection. They’re both going to be outstanding.”

Take a listen at the teaser above.
