Welcome to Pawnee: Actor Jim O'Heir shares stories from the set of "Parks and Recreation"

It’s been almost a decade since the last episode of the hit NBC sitcom “Parks and Recreation” aired, but the show remains firmly in the cultural zeitgeist. Comedian and actor Jim O’Heir, who starred as Jerry Gergich on the show, says there was something special and collaborative about the “Parks and Rec” cast along with an incredibly dedicated and loyal fanbase. O’Heir has now penned “Welcome to Pawnee: Stories of Friendship, Waffles, and Parks and Recreation,” a behind-the-scenes primer that he hopes will allow fans to ”feel even more connected to the show they fell in love with,” he said. Here & Now producer Kalyani Saxena sat down for a conversation with O’Heir who shared “Parks and Rec” nostalgic treasures.
