What was the biggest challenge in getting it made?

“Well, Trevor died,” Brown says.

What the fuck even is that question?

They make jokes about it all the time. Trevor would approve, it was their style.

I didn't doubt that for a second. I just think it's a stupid question. Unless, are you suggesting that the question was intentionally stupid?

Possibly. They may have known how they handle that stuff and asked it that way on purpose.

This is a pretty common production question. It triggers conversation around high and low points. It has been coopted for interviews, which was a terrible idea.
