Paul Rudd and podcast host Rick Glassman joked about the actor’s supposedly “huge penis” during the January 8 episode of the comedy podcast Take Your Shoes Off with Rick Glassman.
**At a Glance
- Rudd, 56, returned to the podcast to revisit a July 2025 bit where his pants came off after a staged coffee spill.
- Glassman quipped the actor’s anatomy was “soft to miss,” prompting playful banter.
- Rudd confirmed he has never done full-frontal nudity in film, citing privacy.
- Why it matters: The exchange shows how a staged moment became viral fodder and a long-running joke between the pair.
The conversation circled back to Rudd’s July 2025 appearance, when Michael Cera, disguised as a production assistant, spilled “hot” coffee on the actor. After Rudd “left” to change clothes, the video blurred his crotch and behind, leading Glassman to declare on-air that Rudd had a “huge penis.”
During this week’s episode, Glassman replayed the moment and pressed Rudd on whether audiences grasp the size of his anatomy.

“I didn’t realize that you even saw my penis,” Rudd deadpanned.
“It was hard – it was soft to miss,” Glassman shot back. “It was hard to miss even when it’s soft … Do you feel like people don’t know how big your penis is?”
Rudd, laughing, pivoted to his screen history.
“I mean, I’ve never done a movie nude. I’ve never been naked in a movie,” he said.
Asked why, the Anaconda star replied, “Why? I mean, I’m a fairly private person, I don’t want to be just wagging my dick all over the place. I’m not Harvey Keitel in The Piano.”
The July clip racked up views online, prompting fact-checking site Snopes to publish a piece that month confirming Rudd was not actually injured in the coffee-spill stunt.
Rudd admitted memories of the bit are hazy.
“It’s funny, I remember obviously showing up and I remember obviously our conversation and I remember the coffee spilling on my face and then going to the hospital,” he told Glassman. “There are things about it that I don’t quite remember, that were a little blurry, and I was a little surprised that you posted it.”
Key Takeaways
- A staged coffee spill last summer turned into a running gag about Rudd’s anatomy.
