B.J. Novak, your museum tour guide

We all know B.J. Novak as Ryan Howard on The Office (he’s additionally a writer and associate producer on the series). However, expanded before that, he was sharpening his comedic skills on the unsuspecting patrons of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.

Give Me My Remote has the scoop, straight from Novak’s MySpace: while in high school B.J. and his brother decided to swipe the cassettes used for audio tours at the museum and replace them

with their own tour, complete with Chinese music and everything (the tapes were for the Chinese art exhibit). The boys recruited fifteen of their friends to sneakily replace the regular cassettes with the new ones, thus giving museum goers a tour unlike any other.
