+Volvandese Yeah indeed. But than Richard doesn't like interviews and there are a lot of interviewers that ask stupid questions. Craig's show is always more of a series of conversations. It rarely happens that they are really talking about selling the film or book or whatever. Just having fun conversations about anything and everything the guests want to talk about. I think Richard just feel way more at ease. Plus it's very hard to talk Craig under the table...

They are both being sarcastic, both of them are sort of ironically poking fun at interviews, bad therapists, and the meaningless of life, yet their doing it in such an uplifting and genuinely respectful way. We need more of this kind of humour. It's not for everyone, but it is so much better than the fake laughs and redundant questions we get more than half the time!

And this is why Craigy Ferg was a great interviewer. Perfectly able to match the speed of any comic while also being able to slow himself down so as to not outshine a non-comedian guest. He immediately caught up to Richard's speed and then the two just began playing with each other (verbally). The audience may not have been laughing much but it's obvious that the two of them were revelling in each others company, bouncing off each other in a back-and-forth you could've seen on a vaudevillian stage. This is what proper comedy sounds like.

As a full-blooded American, British humor is much more satisfying. American humor often is cheep and seems to only go for the shock factor, while the IT crowd, Red Dwarf, and Black Adder seems to have more thought behind it. Maybe I'm over analyzing it, but this interview shows the brilliance of people like Ayoade along with those involved in the previous shows I mentioned and of course the Monty Python crew. That being said, my aunt is British so I have cousins that are half English, but they have had no influence on my sense of humor. They are just surprised when I rattle off the names of my favorite shows.

As for peoples who have lived on this land, no one is 100% since everyone migrated from somewhere to this continent. Whether it was from land bridge from Asia, or explorers from Spain or even the from the East and Middle East, everyone came from somewhere else.

Craig doesn't care about seeming like the more witty guy, when it becomes an effort he stops because he doesn't want to take himself too seriously. However, Richard is an uptight guy, but also really enjoys a good and competitive back and forth. You can see it in every interview or show he does, he knows that his fans love his unpredictable quick and cynical replies so he does just that. Craig is like a happy outgoing dude having a midlife crisis, Richard an introverted stoic but also competitive dude, both, insanely funny and smart.

Also, I feel like people dont realize, but Richard is always playing a character, that's like an extreme caricature of himself, that he doesn't feel the need to point out because it's this character that also takes part in every interaction on TV, whenever there's tension or expectation for him to say something funny. Definitely helps that he's naturally uptight, he's fucking hilarious.

This is probably the most comfortable I've seen Richard Ayoade be in an interview scenario.
+snipeors first time seeing this, too true, i think its cause Ferguson just let him do his thing and then kinda moved into an improve skit which is how British comedy often develops, all about that wit!
Shows just how good Craig is, at sensing how the guest is and adapting his style to fit them.
I say that about pretty much everybody Craig ever interviewed, he's perfect at getting them to relax and unwind. I wish he'd get another talk show!
I would say this with most but you should see Craig's interview with Robert Downey Jr, could cut the uncomfortableness with a knife. But that's probably Rob being more sensitive than he's gonna let on. Edit: Looked at a couple on youtube and don't see it now, but it was one where Craig brought up their shared histories with drugs.
@@trailersic Are you talking about the Guru-Murthy interview?
It was kind of bizarre watching an interview where Ayoade didn't just casually dissect the interviewer and the process itself.
+Volvandese Yeah indeed. But than Richard doesn't like interviews and there are a lot of interviewers that ask stupid questions. Craig's show is always more of a series of conversations. It rarely happens that they are really talking about selling the film or book or whatever. Just having fun conversations about anything and everything the guests want to talk about. I think Richard just feel way more at ease. Plus it's very hard to talk Craig under the table...
+Volvandese It wasn't so much an interview though. It was more like a conversation between them, which is the way Richard likes it.
this show is improvised and is just natural conversation instead of pre rehearsed conversations like other talk shows
Joecaine yeah, but if you watch other people interview him it's pretty clear that they're always one step behind him
Craig always treated his guests as just normal people where he prefers to make conversation. It's why so many people loved him for it since they feel right at home.
This fluidity of this interview is truly admirable considering the topic changes every sentence . They're not missing a beat
Theyre both british style comedians its like two gears meshing
Perhaps they edited out the luls in conversation
No topic , it was basically a skit riffing between the two of them.
Craig Ferguson. The only man who can interview Richard Ayoade.

Perfectly showcases Craig’s skill as a conversationalist. Today, Graham Norton is one of the few with a similar ability to create fun, where many ‘interviewers’ are simply trying to avoid silence.
To be fair Craig does try avoid silence a lot but he does it in a way thats not noisy and obnoxious
Graham Norton is a parasite. The entire chat show circuit is one giant marketing campaign for the sociopaths of the entertainment industry.

Ferguson hosting the Late Late Show, it was truly anomalous for American television: a talk show host that actually listened to the guests.

This is the strangest talk show interview I've ever seen. One of the best, too. I find Ferguson and Ayoade played off each other perfectly.
Craig is that way. He can adapt quickly and get on anyone's level. Tied with Colbert for best interviews imho
+todd lerfondler 100% agree. Props to him for doing his homework and realising what Ayoade likes to do with interviews, and presenting a different technique than the other bland interviewers who quickly fall under Ayoade's sarcastic blade.
+Joe Brechting Colbert is a great interviewer, but when it comes to getting on the guest's level, Ferguson has him beat. Case in point: TJ Miller. Another person who can't be steered. Compare and contrast.
2 years later I still agree with your comment! I love both of them dearly and this interview is ironically so REAL. They are both being sarcastic, both of them are sort of ironically poking fun at interviews, bad therapists, and the meaningless of life, yet their doing it in such an uplifting and genuinely respectful way. We need more of this kind of humour. It's not for everyone, but it is so much better than the fake laughs and redundant questions we get more than half the time!
I wish they could talk for hours. The minute that Richard opened up and said he preferred to stay at a distance from people, that's when Craig felt a connection and they just bonded. I feel like Craig is more introverted than he lets on.

And this is why Craigy Ferg was a great interviewer. Perfectly able to match the speed of any comic while also being able to slow himself down so as to not outshine a non-comedian guest. He immediately caught up to Richard's speed and then the two just began playing with each other (verbally). The audience may not have been laughing much but it's obvious that the two of them were revelling in each others company, bouncing off each other in a back-and-forth you could've seen on a vaudevillian stage. This is what proper comedy sounds like.
+James Thomas Laughing would distract the audience from following and absorbing the conversation, and that would be a waste when given such an interesting ride as this one.
+kimaboe Totally agree, I hadn't thought that perhaps the audience were so captivated in the journey they forgot to laugh!
Craig is/was one the best interviewers on American tv. He pretty much shredded and burned the Late Night Talk Show Rulebook. Very few hosts these days would take the time to get to know someone as offbeat/unconventional as Richard. And even fewer would believe that someone who know who Groucho Marx and Quentin Crisp are.
That was a laugh track. The producers put them in to tell the audience when something is funny. I hate when that happens. I want to listen to everything Richard says without any interruption.
yeah was great seeing them play off each other so well.
I can never get enough of the British wit. This was quite delightful.

I imagine he hates talk shows where the questions are all discussed ahead of time.....he probably thinks thats ridiculous and makes him uncomfortable. (i dont blame him) SO thats why he probably is comfortable here
***** Hence the word "seems"...
***** Erm... No ti's not and he does... So... I guess it's a difference in opinion.
***** And you read that in his diary? Do you know the reason he doesn't like interviews? It's because it is a very one-sided conversation, and it makes him feel rude and therefore uncomfortable. In this interview however, it's just him and Craig talking. There is no specific subject they need to talk about and it's not only Craig asking the questions you see...? But again I said "seem"...
***** You clearly haven't been paying attention if you really think his behavior here it the same in all of his other interviews...

I heard Craigy say on his show that his contract was up, it had gone on long enough, and he was ready.
Craigy Ferg was awarded A Peabody for his interviews with Desmond Tutu. Thats enough, that combo, for a lifetime, aye?
The fact that Richard Ayoade is really funny without smiling and is funny makes me love him more.
The audience has no idea what's going on when Richard and Craig are talking about the places where they grew up.
They're like Elephant & Castle - wtf that's a place. Ok for me as I actually lived in Islington a year ago but no I would never go to Elephant & Castle out of choice
***** You're right. The area derives its name from a large pub or coaching inn which used to be the main identifying feature long before the area was built around it. This inn was even referenced by Shakespeare, as he knew his south London audience in The Globe Theatre would have been familiar with it.

As a full-blooded American, British humor is much more satisfying.

This is probably the most comfortable Richard has been in any interview. They were in sync the whole time.
for the first time, it's the guest who dominates the room. Finally someone authoritative and witty enough to take the piss at Ferguson. Great interview btw
I think you misunderstand. Richard wasn't dominating the room at all, they were just basking in each other's wit because it fit so perfectly. If was domineering, it wouldn't have been enjoyable.
True. Usually, Richard sort of dissects the interviewers. It didn't feel like domination in this video. In this video it felt like it was casual conversation between two people.
Craig.... Has never, ever, EVER asked real questions. He doesn't even want to, that's his thing. Its all about the conversation and breaking the convention of having to ask guests questions. That's why he always does that whole bit in the beginning of every single interview where he rips up the "questions".
No one took the piss at anyone, these two are just talking lol. Why would he even want to dominate the room?? Why do you see a contest here at all?! Look at some other interviews ffs.

Silver Champagne Not seen the American IT Crowd, i imagine it is as crap as the American version of the Office. The original is always the best anything else is just cheap imitation
+Gary Mcatear I actually like both versions is The Office, but the IT Crowd, Nope! And you know what? Richard is in that one too. (as Moss)
Silver Champagne Richard Ayoade is in the American It Crowd are you saying?
Gary Mcatear yeap!
Richard Ayoade is absolutely hilarious.
God the sarcasm is completely on point
Love the banter between these two... =)
Massively taking the piss out of each other in the best way!
Love how Richard just plays along as a way of mocking interviews and social interaction . He's so brilliant.
Wow. I really love watching interviews where the guests and hosts just gave the best chemistry and this one was pretty amazing. Seemed like they were just talking man to man without the audience.
If you like this guy, check him out on Britain's "Big Fat Quiz Of The Year" super funny
Him ad Noel together on it are just fabulous.
him on Big Fat Quiz of the Year is the best thing ever
He's great with David Mitchell on "Was it Something I Said?"
LrsLzk His interaction with Jimmy Carr on that show is one of the best things I've ever seen. Also when he hosted Never Mind the Buzzcocks. And also virtually every other panel show he's ever appeared on.
I just recently "discovered" him & I happened upon an episode of Travel Man with him & Eddie Izzard & now I've just been mainlining Richard Ayaode, especially once I saw him & Noel Fielding together.
I've only just discovered Richard Ayoade (he's not really known in my country) - man... The guy is amazing!
Pretty much any time i see Richard's name, i click immediately. Then i realize, "Tsk, i've played this one before," and don't care because it's awesome. This comment really takes you on a ride.
"I don't really know what's going on in any walk of life."
Holy shit, that was interviewing on brutal difficulty. That was amazing.
Richard Ayoade is pure magic...
This is the best interview I've ever seen if my favourite man, Richard Ayoade , because Craig understood him! I adore Richard so much gahhh
I discovered Richard Ayoade on "The Big Fat Quiz of the (fill in the Year)" shows and fell in love. I used to think that I didn't understand British Humor when I was a teenager but now I love it, especially their panel game shows. Check out Richard when he is paired with Noel Fielding the two of them make me pee my pants.
Have you ever seen The Mighty Boosh?
"Shut up!" " i will not " "shut up!" "I will not shut up." This is sheer pleasure. I put this up there with Seinfeld getting coffee in cars with John Oliver. When it feels like they would go on exactly the same if there were no camera or audience, it's a delight.
Im more surprised that people are surprised that the guy who could keep up with Robin Williams, managed a good interview with Ayoade.
They went to a dark place, but I'm glad they talked man to man.
lovely references my friend. dean would be proud
These two work off each other perfectly. Hysterical.
I used to visit Elephant & Castle every month and didn't think it was that bad... But then again, I used to live in Brixton, so that's probably why.
@Antonio Bromelini It changes at exactly 1am
When I moved to London I visited Elephant and castle - there was definitely a ‘vibe’ 😂
@Jewels Star Brixton started improving about 15 years ago. But back in the '90s, Brixton was one of the most run-down, crime-ridden parts of London.
@Jewels Star I'm just saying the bad reputation was because of how Brixton used to be back in the '80s and '90s. But in the 2000s, Brixton got cleaned-up and became a friendlier place.
@Jewels Star Well, I moved out of Brixton as a kid in the '90s, and hadn't been back there until the early 2010s. By that time, Brixton had become a clean and well-developed place. There's also been a shift in demographics, due to an influx of EU migrants from Eastern Europe since the 2000s. So now there's a large white population in Brixton, although most of them are Eastern-European.
it is me or did i wanted 20 more minutes of this?? both are brilliant!!!!
Two of the most clever and wittiest entertainers! Watching them go back and forth is pure comedy. 😆 Also, they are kindred spirit... Just look at their socks.
Literally one word shy of perfect. It seems like Craig ran out of options when he said "mice."
Yeah but he came around with "And that'll be 100 dollars."
I’d buy tickets just to watch these two chat for 90 minutes .. brilliant interview.
The last time I saw someone else go toe to toe with Craig and come out on top was Robin. Rip brother
+jonathan Jaffe I wouldn't say he came out "on top of Craig". They were just chatting is all.
Not so much concerned with who ends up on top but the verbal sparring is lovely to see as they both have rare personalities types. Testament also to Craig for his ability to scale quickly to pretty much any type of person. Great chat/interview.
Craig doesn't care about seeming like the more witty guy, when it becomes an effort he stops because he doesn't want to take himself too seriously. However, Richard is an uptight guy, but also really enjoys a good and competitive back and forth. You can see it in every interview or show he does, he knows that his fans love his unpredictable quick and cynical replies so he does just that. Craig is like a happy outgoing dude having a midlife crisis, Richard an introverted stoic but also competitive dude, both, insanely funny and smart.
Also, I feel like people dont realize, but Richard is always playing a character, that's like an extreme caricature of himself, that he doesn't feel the need to point out because it's this character that also takes part in every interaction on TV, whenever there's tension or expectation for him to say something funny. Definitely helps that he's naturally uptight, he's fucking hilarious.
Steven Wright was also great.
I miss Craig doing interviews so much, I've watched everything I can since he stepped down but i still gotta come back to these. Anyone who can have a genuinely pleasant time with Ayoade AND Cillian Murphy should be recognized for their greatness.
Both Richard and Ferguson are very much enjoyable to listen to, I just love how creative most of Craig Fergusons interviews turn out, but with Richard Ayoade as his guest, it was just over the top entertaining. I could listen to Richard forever, and I'd happily pay those two for talking to each other.
"I don't really know what's going on in any walk of life... I don't hate ppl. I'm not nuts on them. I mean, my general answer is emmm... no." 👌
I think that is one of my favourite interviews ever.
“I’ll play the therapist - which I’m not qualified to do, much like Dr Phil” 😂 😂 😂 funny because it’s true.
I love that at a certain point in this interview they just decided to have a lovely surrealist chat with each other.
Craig was easily the best late night interviewer. Richard is such a gem.
"Pity sex is still sex, my friend!" That's true matey!
Richard and Craig both met there match
Where?
if he and John Oliver were ever in the same room I would just explode from the Englishness
They were best friends at Cambridge together
@@Disestabulistic is this true? Didn't know that.
@@moimeself1088 kzhead.info/sun/drKDiKdxpWKmpas/bejne.html One or the other (can't remember which) has talked about it in an interview as well.
@@Disestabulistic thank you!!! So weird to see both so young, and behaving so "out of character". John less than Richard, but still. 😊
man i love the brits. Richard Ayoade's wit is just unmatched.
Richards nationality is English, he was born in England. Fergusson was born in a different country!
@@albagubrath9073England is Britain along with Scotland and Wales, Northern Ireland makes up the United Kingdom of Britain and Northern Ireland.
This is the job I want. To sit and talk shit with celebrities, about their interesting lives and then get paid for it.
I love both of them, and this feels more like a conversation instead of an interview. Brilliant!
My favorite interview of Richard so far. So sincere.
The British are the best at dry humor! So happy I found out about Richard Ayoade 💯
The term 'British' is highly offensive to every country on Britain, except for the English!
@@albagubrath9073 Incorrect
Fucking love this interview haha
lovely tone, for an informal conversation between gentlemen, yet witty
