The Most Divisive, Monotone Podcast

[@kaemincha]

if i wanted to watch a funny antagonistic interview, i would just watch ziwe

[@cas6359]

literally there’s so many other options- ziwe, between two ferns, the chicken shop show she’s apparently ripping off, and kinda eric andre. but they all know to keep things short for the most part. and the whole joke isn’t just being antagonistic, they’re making jokes while being antagonistic.

[@harryjamesmiller]

how and whenever she returns from her show being cancelled, i will be seated

[@jeness]

Amelia and Ziwe seem to be where I gravitate more because they have their own spin on a known formula. Amelia is in the vain of a date going wrong. While Ziwe is more of the friend who tries to bate you into being political for all the wrong reasons🤣 both are severely uncomfortable in a fun way but unfortunately Bobbi’s comes off as unprepared but not in a fun way. That being said. I don’t care for the visceral hate because a lot of men in the industry are derivative and boring.

[@alexisb3829]

Yes it might not be the best but so many podcasts by men are awful

[@dayzedandconfuzed]

her character is a watered down version of ziwe or chicken shop girl bc they did it first and better. like my literal best friend (i’m delusional) ziwe did not get her show canceled just for this to come along…

[@Pepperz543]

This is what I kept saying this whole time. Like Ziwes show was masterful cringe. Not saying both can’t exist but it’s frustrating knowing her show is over and this chick is here being blah

[@NiNi.258]

Lot of people are saying she stole Amelia's chicken shop bit and I couldn't agree more

[@TheGeorgeD13]

Eh, they don’t feel the same thing at all. I like both, but not the same vibe at all.

[@hthumbs4072]

Amelia seems to be able to adjust her approach depending on the person better, she leans into and matches guest initiated bits so much better, and also comes off as more likeable even though she is still aiming for weird and awkward.

[@josefinarivia]

It's a known formula so I'm hesitant to say she stole anything. Ziwe and between two ferns do something similar as well. So to say she stole anything is conflicting. The other concepts work better though since I'm thinking the other people have education or training in how to interview people and know how to keep a conversation flowing without hitting a block.

[@fluffypineapple790]

Tbf I feel like the issue with both Amelia and Bobbi is that they often make the awkward thing the fact that they are white and the people around them are black, it makes me uncomfortable :/

[@amylomo9793]

i was very surprised to find out she doesn’t have famous parents because that was the only way i could rationalise her getting access to drake (drizzy, d god, aubrey) so easily

[@chizdoesthings]

[@sunshineeee]

She has rich music industry parents

[@Squishy876]

Babe, new Harry James Miller just dropped!

[@cassidym.7687]

The bit she does during these interviews isn't anything new and doesn't feel particularly well done. It's always made me think of between two ferns and why the whole straight faced thing truly only works if you're really bringing a unique thing to it.

[@miguelstarboy5572]

exactly and if works if you actually say funny stuff with a straight face not just boring questions

[@phoebescott6787]

True, though I find it funny how she genuinely acts like she doesn't like the guests or even knows why they're there. Between two ferns is like the host doesn't really like the guest but does the interviews anyway. Hers seems like someone just walked into her house and she had to interview them, especially with the sets she's chosen sometimes, where they're just sitting in her bed or something. I've seen some clips and I think it's funny, but it's true that it's hard to do it well

[@genesiselaine]

@@miguelstarboy5572exactly, she’s not charismatic at all her guests are always guiding the convo

[@Ues444]

@@genesiselainethis, the interviews are only funny because her guests are - not her

[@unpreparedwithacapitalf]

between two ferns is so good

[@soltandvinegar]

She really feels like she's trying to do her own version of Philomena Cunk, a similarly monotone interviewer character.

[@shelbyblackmore-mg4nv]

Philomena Cunk is Hilariously Funny!!

It’s one thing to have a dry sense of humor/delivery and ask out of box questions - like Amelia and Ziwe, for example - but this podcast just feels bland. It lacks some charm, I guess

[@RainyDays2790]

hadda put my dog down tonight. her kindeys were failing and she couldnt be saved. this video was the first thing all day to make me laugh, thank you Harry

yes and no, im happy shes not in pain any more and that i know we 9the drs, my family and my baby) did all that we coould and fought as hard as we could to make sure she got better. it didnt work but im not angry or anything, i just miss my baby @@lucy9518

Dude, the romance struggle is real😭 I almost went for Astarion again

I had to stick with Shadowheart because she’s adorable but Gale made that difficult. But thank god she was ok with me fooling around with Halsin, ya know what I mean 💅

[@helplessheroine2641]

@Mentalitarium Halsin only expressed interest in me AFTER taking him and Astarion to Sharess' Caress for some team bonding. Now my druid gal is living her best life with her two elven boys😌

[@aliceisaperson]

It’s just one of those things where it’s such a neutral. I do not care about this podcast at all, it’s not really that original, but like the visceral hatred for it is so insane. It’s misogyny definitely. It’s not good but it’s not something I hate.

[@lucy9518]

I feel like this vein of comedy is mistaking awkward laughter for real laughter 😮

[@averyguilbert6314]

I don’t think she knows what parody means but I don’t really have a problem with her until I watched this and I wasn’t aware of all the hate she was getting! Which seems unearned. Idk how much credit I give her for it but I did laugh genuinely at the Shaq clips I saw. But that might just be shaq bejng shaq lol

[@codykoschode5478]

People are mad that real journalists can’t get near these artists while she asks nothing and gets all the access since she’s safe and doesn’t ask actual questions

[@peachtea6514]

Thanks for the video! I love the topics you cover because they are interesting but I usually haven’t heard anything about them, and you talk about things seriously while also interjecting plenty of humor. You don’t really cover any seriously upsetting topics that leave me feeling worse after watching like some other commentary KZbin’s do, which I really appreciate. Genuinely one of my favorites and a shining star within commentary

[@harryjamesmiller]

this is so nice and thoughtful, thank you :) i'm glad you like the videos!!

[@jahanarahgraham8003]

[@zaraeraesmith7510]

[@realcecewilson]

funny outro 😂

[@theresemellum9567]

I feel as if the anger leveraged against her is pretty clearly classic misogynistic “how could a woman be successful?” type stuff. Even the chicken shop date/ziwe comparisons feel rooted in the pitting women against each other thing. I’m not saying these criticisms aren’t valid, I prefer these podcasts and think she likely took inspiration from them, but the visceral hatred behind the criticisms is not something you see any time a man makes a watered-down version of another man’s podcast. It’s not like dry/awkward humor is a new concept. The internet really loves to vilify women for doing something incredibly neutral, and I’d caution people to acknowledge the internet-perpetuated patterns like this.

[@125loopy]

I don't think it's all misogyny. She JUST started the podcast and is interviewing one of the biggest rappers in the world on episode 4. Why? She's a bad interviewer, she has no experience, she's not funny, and other people do this format better. She's a rich white woman flying around the world being promoted on social media. This is just another case of mediocrity.

[@CrumbisBumbis]

I'm sure there are plenty of podcasts at this point with similar names but I can't help side eyeing it being called "The Really Good Podcast" as a member of Kurtis Town. also this "dry" podcast host shtick is getting way over used..

The thing that annoys me most about this is how people act like concepts never existed before TikTok. Between Two Ferns was the OG awkward interview “podcast” and everyone acts like Chicken Shop girl was the mother of this. Also literally the whole app is based off of copying each other, it’s just that the algorithm is discriminatory so Eurocentric creators will get priority.
