It has been 27 years since American Pie first made waves on the big screen
On the Jan. 20, 2026, episode of SiriusXM's The Julia Cunningham Show, Jason Biggs revealed why he recently had to explain his infamous pie scene to his 11-year-old son
Luckily, "the talk" went better than expected and even managed to make the tween laugh
American Pie followed a group of awkward high-school friends navigating sex, friendship and embarrassment, with Jason Biggs' character Jim at the center of one of the most infamous scenes of the era.
Decades later, one moment is still following Biggs around — including straight into his own home. On a recent episode of SiriusXM's The Julia Cunningham Show, the 47-year-old actor revealed that he recently had to explain the notorious pie scene to his oldest son, Sid, whom he shares with wife Jenny Mollen.
"They kept hearing about American Pie and pie and [asking], 'Daddy, what do you do with the pie?' and I had to have a conversation with my oldest," Biggs explained on the show. "I actually showed him the scene. Jenny and I talked about this, and we were like, 'We want to get ahead of this.' "

Biggs said the decision didn't come out of nowhere, especially since the movie still pops up in unexpected – and sometimes uncomfortable – ways.
He recalled a time when his family was "walking in New York on the street and the boys were up ahead and thank god they did not hear it, but a guy walked past us all and literally screamed out back to me, 'Hey, it's the pie f---er,' and I looked immediately at the boys," Biggs shared. "They did not hear him, thank god."
Biggs, however, chose to approach the situation thoughtfully by finally deciding to have the dreaded discussion with the tween.
"It's my version of a sex talk, right?" he explained. "It's like, how much do you want them to hear from friends and other people at school, and how much do you want to control the narrative, and it was literally happening with American Pie."

In the end, Biggs decided that going about it with honesty and a little humor was the best route, even if it meant reliving one of the most awkward moments of his career with a tween audience.
"He guessed it, so in a way, I almost didn't control the narrative," Biggs said, "but he wasn't entirely sure. But I wanted to ask him first. I said, 'What do you think happens?' I was just curious, and he actually guessed correctly."
"He was embarrassed to say it, very embarrassed, but I was like, 'Okay. Let me show you. Let me show you what happened,' and so I showed him the scene, and he laughed and laughed."
Still, the moment wasn't exactly painless. "He was a little uncomfortable for sure," Biggs said. "He did say I was a good actor."

Back in 2017, Biggs told PEOPLE that he'd already thought about how the infamous American Pie scene — in which his character is caught by his father, played by Eugene Levy, in an awkward kitchen moment with a freshly baked pie — might one day come up at home.
"I picture a scenario where it's like — I don't know what grade, hopefully a little bit older – but one of his friends can come in and be like, 'Hey, I saw your dad's penis on TV last night!' " he said. "That's a very real possibility for our life."
At the time, Biggs also admitted that he's found some relief in the fact that he's raising sons.
"I've only thought of it in regards to I'm glad that I have boys versus girls," he says. "I don't know how it's going to go down, but I know that no matter how it goes down, it's going to be easier having sons than it would have been having girls."
