Timothy Olyphant revealed he had to resurrect an old computer in an attempt to log on to the "SmartLess" podcast. Ultimately, he wound up using a friend's office to make the interview happen.

"I needed a computer," Olyphant, 58, told hosts Jason Bateman, Will Arnett and Sean Hayes. "I guess you can't do your show if you don't own a computer." As the hosts pressed him, Olyphant doubled down on his surprisingly low-tech lifestyle. "We went… I had a… we went and got out an old desktop computer that we still have in the house and plugged it in and started it up, and they were all USB things."

Good for him, if he can live his life in the 1970’s.
Not meaning to disrespect him, but not everybody can do without a computer. It gives him time for things he might value more.

Funny. I’ve been watching little YouTube clips of Justified for the last 2 days, and then this story pops up on FR.. Always liked this guy. He was great in the remake of The Crazies. First time I’d ever seen him was The Mandalorian.

I really like that guy. I don’t know much about him, but do Annie his low tech lifestyle.

He doesn’t own a computer. Sounds like you don’t own a TV.

Dewey is my second-favorite character, after Boyd.
