Hasan Roasts Q&A Host | Deep Cuts On The Road

[@al-baabkhan6796]

Hasan: “insightful commentary on the structure of political comedy” Suraj: “That’s interesting….moving on” HAD ME 😂😂😂

[@dianneisbomb]

literally me in a job interview lmfao

[@cchoi108]

Thank you so much Hasan for deconstructing the writing process. Very helpful thank you. Very generous of you to share.

[@Lucky-zi2dg]

Hasan's confidence gave Suraj's anxiety some long lasting trauma

[@TheMightyAgency]

Yeah but he's all packaging and nothing inside. Hasan gave him so many opportunities to shine but he was just too worry about his self image. That's just an perfect example of someone being too self-aware.

[@Lucky-zi2dg]

@@TheMightyAgency that's the definition of anxiety. Being hyper self aware, jumbling up your lines, overthinking and hence pausing for too long. That compiled with a few cues like his occasional leg shaking, chin rubbing, neck tilting, almost aggressive nodding, etc. Hasan's confidence was just too intimidating for the poor fella

[@pangmoua3189]

I would say that this young man was self-conscience in his anxiety…but not self-aware.

[@pjnice]

@@TheMightyAgency it’s not that deep. Hasan’s a polished comedian. He’s just too much for him to handle.

[@Lucky-zi2dg]

Just to clarify if Suraj does stumble up to this comment, we see you. You were anxious but you were much better than me and many others. I could see you were used to your stage fright and were using a few techniques and that's great. The main thing is it was all in good fun and you did NOT make a fool of yourself no matter what anyone says. Keep it up and stay strong 🥂

[@stephenhawk8384]

Hasan showed both of the moderators such respect in different ways. He was dialed in with the young woman. It was wonderful how he connected with her, learned her sibling’s name and then used it later in the interview. Hasan made it as much about her as it was about him. For the young man who was clearly nervous, Hasan treated him as a friend. Roasting him, yes, but that is what a friend would do. It is a joy to see such wonderful people skills.

[@igotthevibesinme]

as a person who can relate to the overly self-aware and anxiety that suraj is radiating through my screen, i gotta say its probably hard af to sit through a show where a famous comedian/your idol is sitting on stage and bagging on you. not only that, but its also posted online for everyone else to see and comment on!! so suraj, if you see this, just know you did great and i personally thought you were very endearing :) don't beat yourself up about it, and know that its not easy to interview someone off the cuff but you did the best you could

[@scuffedpixel]

Wut? He's prolly be alright

[@prabhatluthra5444]

But I think he really needed to hear this. He was such a sport.

[@starsintrash9218]

Ikr I totally agree with you, he nailed it, being was awkwardly cute at that too. Furthermore, anxiety and awkwardness is seriously an inevitable thing especially when your as nervous.

[@amun1040]

100%. I know that many will roast him, but all of those people wouldn't even know how to begin interviewing someone in front of hundreds. Suraj did a great job.

[@souvikdeb2523]

Dang, I loved the Suraj guy! Talk about holding your composure in front of a famous comedian. Suraj could have been anyone over there. In these situations when you are out of your comfort zone facing an audience and a really smart ass comedian, people tend to become 'someone else' to suit the audience and be 'cool'. But Suraj held his composure in such a sweet way. More power to you bro, from a fellow brown kid🙂🙂

[@aleeh2109]

I really like how he’s giving attention to both interviewer’s no matter who’s asking the question. Love to see Hasan speak with passion

[@taraz6786]

The female interviewer is killing this interview. She is straight up 🔥 dayyum I wish I was as self assured as she is, because she is so cool, calm and collected. 👏

[@HanQ28]

She's way younger than me, but I swear she's cooler and more confident than me and all my older cousins. Makes me wonder if maturity is just not in my family genes😭👏

[@jmpht854]

Suraj is my hero. Not everyone gets off talking in front of massive crowds. I don't know if he has anxiety about it or anything like that, but he struck me as someone not in his comfort zone still doing an amazing job all the same.

[@rezaandpuja]

The girl host killed it! Questions were so spot on. Suraj - you are the 🐐 for stepping up to the plate and being a good sport about it all. As always, Hasan is such an effortless entertainer. Tyler - Loved this video! The edits were *chefs kiss* 🤌🏽

[@xzonia1]

Suraj was adorable, and I loved how he rolled with it. Good guy! :)

[@livealil]

Yo I am a big fan of Puja and Reza and of course Hasan. Everytime I watch Reza or Hasan, I think they are definitely doppelgangers. I can't be the only one thinking this lol.

[@sadiehallinger1401]

He was not ready for show time

[@SceneStealer1]

Hasan was a bit too harsh on him tho. Like it’s obvious he couldn’t handle the attention so why push further

[@manaalshaikh7968]

shoutout to the hosts y'all did great!!! i loved seeing them interact with Hasan, and this was fun to watch

[@priyankathomas2643]

I watched this live at the auditorium, and it was one of the highlights of the semester. The interviewers were amazing! It takes a lot of effort to be one and I have a lot of respect for them. Hasan, thank you for taking the time to come out to IU, share your insight, and make us laugh. I’m making an effort to use your advice

[@xzonia1]

Agreed, both interviewers did great! Hasan was so much fun in this, too! Love him every time I see him do anything, really. Class act.

i miss seeing this man on the reg, full program style...youtube shorts are not enough - how do we get the sequel to patriot act?

[@trishnaagrawal3665]

didn't think I could like him any more but then he said that thing about wisdom and times changing AND JUST LIKE YES EVERY PARENT NEEDS TO KNOW THIS I JUST ADMIRE HIM MORE NOW 😭🤚🏻

[@anthonyzullo]

Also as a comedian myself when he said to be a good comedian you have to be Fd up and his explanation is so true for us new comics. It's easier to talk about the WHY of us being fucked up is great. Because anyone can be a comedian, because we're all messed up, but to be so Fd up you say what you want to whomever is courage to get past it. Hasan is a comic not because he is funny, but because he is genuinely honest about himself and has the confidence that others around him will get it. He explained it perfectly.

[@collintheviking2082]

I watched this event at the IU Auditorium along with my roommates, it was so hilarious all the way through! Though there were some awkward moments since the hosts clearly weren't prepared for someone like Hasan Minaj but instead someone more like Anderson Cooper. We all loved how he messed with them because it made the Q&A a lot more interesting! It seems Suraj agreed at the end there.

[@TheMightyAgency]

From our point of view (edited), all the cuts took place in the conversations between Hasan and Suraj so I can only speculated that Suraj was the weakest link. On the flip side, you can tell Hasan really appreciated the type of questions he got from the lady.

[@ErdingerLi]

His answer to the last question is the absolute best. Being Southeast Asian, his ideology towards bringing up his children was just amazing as compared to those of my parents' generation.

[@mikeyllo]

If I was that guy, I would have died. Death by blushing. Hasan is super cool.

i watched this in real life it was very good! wish he did a bit more stand up with more stories in the beginning but it was still really good. Suraj was being clowned on by Hasan the whole time the whole audience was dying of laughter

I felt little bad for that guy but i believe he will take it in good sport and shine brightest in future. Good luck and lots of love to that guy🌻🤗🌈🍀🌺 It's totally fine.We all are learning and improving. No one is perfect here. Not even Hasan Minhaj. It's an illusion.

[@Sofia-be7ee]

Hasan and Suraj reminded me of the interactions between my brothers/ cousins. It’s a totally Indian thing to do. He’s just teasing Suraj like he would a younger brother, it’s not with the intention of traumatising him. (we Indians get over-friendly/over-informal sometimes, it’s in our DNA)

[@candyland4129]

This is SICK….I’m gonna internet stalk you Hasan …you’re brilliant 🙌🙌👏🏼👏🏼

[@roshd3051]

Suraj is a good sport and definitely have a very chill stage presence . But he is clearly unprepared or not as skilled an interviewer as Pooja. I think Hasan was right to not let him slide - this experience will make him better host in the future .

[@Neenerella333]

Agreed! If he had babied, or even ignored Suraj's awkwardness, it would have just been sad.

[@omarcostilla8863]

He kinda rubbed it in though like when comparing him to Pooja. Maybe a chat in private would have been more appropriate.

[@cosmicorinne]

The problem was that he was over prepared that’s why Hasan was teasing him. He was nervous and had a bunch of paragraphs. It was probably a good learning experience for him. Hasan was just teasing him to try to get him to relax a bit.

[@gracethomas4167]

Suraj is the king of transitions

[@katedelight]

Shout out to the mic op - I feel you. Hasan, you're amazing - but when you hold the mic like a foot away from your mouth we can't hear you. And the audio person can't keep the level consistent if you don't keep the mic placement somewhat consistent. Just like, letting you know. Because I feel like you might actually read the comments. And I also feel like you watched this back and were like, wtf with the sound.

[@mariannerady1137]

Watching this with a Smile and hanging on Hasan’s every word. Time and time again.. Comedians are modern day philosophers

[@cybervoid8442]

Suraj must've cried after the interview lol

[@sneakysneakyrat]

I thought Suraj's questions were good and had the right amount of humor. Hasan was doing his comedic thing by comparing the two hosts and trying to take friendly jabs at Suraj. But I honestly thought he kind of overpowered Suraj a bit in the process. To me, Suraj wasn't the awkward one, but Hasan (if that makes sense). Like there is a happy medium where both people can enjoy the jokes without one person feeling embarrassed or getting talked over a lot. I think Hasan caught on part way through and dialed it down a little. But yeah, just my thoughts to people calling out his anxiety and stuff. Actually, he seemed very well prepared and was engaging and good at laughing off the roasts and transitioning to the next topic. Great job to both hosts!

[@MaxMiller94]

Before Patriot Act started airing, Hasan came to my campus and did a preview of the show with a Q&A. He went equally hard on those hosts.

I love you, Hasan and just yesterday I told my mom you’re the best interviewer I know. That said, I think it is important to note that we should pull up anyone who is below us socially (with less societal power) and we o ley get to punch down everyone who is above (like world leaders). Doing the opposite does not bring about positive change nor does it bring equilibrium to the balance.
