Thank you. This one was a million times better than the New Yorker interview. I think his approach about the coverage of Trump is very essential and somehow underrated.

[@gage6209]

Bret handled your patronizing attitude and questions very well.

[@M.H.I.A.F.T.]

I would watch the whole interview but I have to return some videotapes :-)

[@nilesoien4439]

See you at Dorsia. When you least expect it.

The part about Irvine Welsh is so goddamn short it really doesn't justify putting his name in the video's title BUT I have to admit it was hilarious

[@hbrien]

Bret is great, As a GenX American child of Irish Immigrants, there is nothing worse than milk toast self hating liberal Irishman. You seem to have missed the entire point of his book.

[@lutherblissett8780]

Dion is a real fanny eh?

[@TechLashLass]

And Bret missed the point of some questions

[@hbrien]

Your opening quote, I just read that last night.

[@detectivedonaldkimball]

[@jerkjackson8536]

Ha NP at all brother, yeah it took me like bout 30 mins to find it skimming thru. Ha I just didn't wanna sit thru the whole thing

[@thestranger11]

You can really see where Bale successfully mimics Ellis in American Psycho. The half smile lip nerve, the sleazy american (broad) accent.

mic face

Bret's boyfriend must be a young 20 something Gen-Z if he cant remember living before modern day internet. Plenty of millennials are over 40 and the idea of dping your shopping in brick and mortar stores isnt alien ffs...

[@terry9238]

No, Bret-we WEREN’T overreacting. Trump was horrible for America. For many reasons-including his court appointments, which will be with us for decades. By the way, they’re coming for gay rights next.
