"Stop making the crew laugh." "Well you aren't." I DIED. What an icon.

[@user-sg6sv9oi6i]

❤️

[@melaniexoxo]

Richard Simmons is not only an icon but an AMAZING human being. I love him so much

[@user-sg6sv9oi6i]

❤️

[@carlaarms9720]

This is the best interview with Richard Simmons I ever saw. Thank you Shay for treating him with such respect. He deserves so much respect and compassion for helping so many people through the years. God Bless you Shay & Richard.

[@user-sg6sv9oi6i]

❤️

[@TheJessicaTalks]

''90% of people who lose weight gain it back. Not only do they gain back the weight they've lost, but they gain more. This is not a game. Your life is not a game. You have to eat healthy and you have to exercise. You have to feel good about yourself.'' I love that

[@TheJessicaTalks]

I loved this line from richard

[@GrammyGinger]

I have loved Richard's humor and caring since the 80s. I had a record album with a picture book of his exercises.

[@SS-pv6rd]

All you people saying negative things about Richard Simmons... you should be ashamed of yourself. He is just different. He's misunderstood. He is a really awesome person and does a ton of good things -- more good than most people could ever hope to do in a lifetime. He likes to bring out the most in people, and he likes to make people laugh. If he seems rude, it's just that you're too uptight to understand his dry sarcastic sense of humor. He is an inspiration and an amazing soul. Thank you Shay for this :)

[@Jeminijuno]

He was odd at the start, but throughout the video, he composed himself very well on serious topics. He knows when to be funny, and when to have composure. I would save my critiques for Shay.

[@endor8witch]

i love richard.say what you will about him - he's such a bundle of positive energy since i first saw him on tv. since i was a kid till now - his energy is the same as always. ncie to have people like that in this world.

[@user-sg6sv9oi6i]

❤️

[@vereyna143]

I didn't honestly know what to expect.. But I laughed a lot! He's crazy... you've truly met your match Shay!!!

[@BrilliantLove2]

My grandma had all his sweating to the oldies VHS tapes, I sit and watch as I was very young at the time lol fond memories with Richard Simmons on my grandma's tv :')

[@TristanAC]

The last part of the video when Richard was praising Shay summed him up. Simmons says things as they are and what he said to Shay at the end I completely agreed with and is the reason I watch the Shaytards. Proud of you Shay, Well done!

[@livelovelaugh247xxx]

Richard seems like a great guy! I'm glad Shay interviewed him!

[@ashleycarver9434]

I love how Shay asks questions and Richard completely goes off on a different topic lol

[@user-sg6sv9oi6i]

True! 😂

[@beachybarb5713]

Oh my gosh...I love Richard Simmons! I have all his sweating to the oldies work out DVD's. He makes exercising so fun💕

[@nicolesova7965]

This is probably the one of the best interviews I've seen!

[@KayGirl216]

Richard is a delight. Such light and spirit, so genuine.

[@xMysticZack7x]

Why the funk are people getting so angry at Richard, he just speaks his mine, unlike most people on this Earth, and he seems like a brilliant dude! p.s.- did not mean to come across rude

[@juzuggy]

richard is great. the first time i have ever watched him. he is beautiful inside and out. very touching interview. i cried and laughed all the way through it

[@jaykay415]

OMG, I am so glad I took the time to watch this. Beyond awesome. What a pair!

[@proverbialsunrise7]

I literally was not fussed about watching this shoot but WOW I'm glad I did!! It was hilarious and insightful and, frankly, it was pretty motivating! Shay, you were awesome!

[@followjesus1647]

Richard is using Jedi Mind Control on You! Richard is actually a Jedi Mind Master! It is impossible to beat him! If Yoda and Richard were sitting in a tree ...... Richard would easily win!

[@jmpowers83]

I'm so jealous. I always wanted to meet Richard Simmons. He has so much energy and seems like a very nice and caring man.

[@KaceCozy]

My entire life (I'm 34) my parents & brother who is 2 years older then I am have made fun of me my entire life, They call me hateful names, They would moo at me, Make fun of my size in front of people & tell me they were ashamed to have me as their child. They still tell me they hate me, They still make fun of me. I was thin as a child, I however am now 376 pounds & losing my ability to walk because of my back & the weight doesn't help. I cry a lot, I don't like being in crowns because I feel ugly & scared. I need help but I don't know where to start. I don't want to be like this. I want to live life not hide at home anymore.

[@suzeeqew]

please get in touch with richard.i know he reads and responds to emails.i do hope you have people around you now that bring happiness into your life.shame on your parents and brother.why do that to a human being? you deserve better!

[@homemovies1961]

Hi Kacecozy. Sorry to hear how cruel your family are to you. I don't believe anyone is ugly , some people may not conform to what the media dictates as good looking ,but after getting to know anyone you forget the physical and see the inner soul . I hope Shay and Richards tips will help you lose weight to feel more healthy

[@TheHManShow]

RIP Richard Simmons. Thank you so much for being such a life force of energy, happiness, and inspiring multiple generations of people to live their life to the fullest and love yourself unconditionally.

[@StaciAnaMarie]

I think Richard is the only person in the whole world that can make Shay feel awkward.

[@elaina86]

RIchard Simmons reminds me of my grandma. Batshit crazy but you have to still show respect. This was just like a half hour visit at nana's.

[@Lozzeii]

I think people need to accept the fact that some people are very different and do express themselves in different ways. I don't feel that this was awkward at all, this was just a clash of big personalities and they both made some amazing points on the topic!!

[@user-sg6sv9oi6i]

Excellent response ❤️💯

[@JABn4e]

Shay has met his match. Priceless. Richard you are one amazing man.

[@CalvinRichardsonjr]

It's funny to see Shay get a taste of the wild energy and random silliness he gives to everyone else.

[@jmylo0809]

One of the best interviews I've watched in awhile!! So funny yet so inspiring!! Thanks shay!

[@MissAllaCinderella]

AWEsome! I remember my first workout I did on a regular basis was, "Sweatin' to the Oldies Part 2" on my parents VHS player. Still know most of the dance moves!

[@Biancaandradecruz]

When he started to talk about how shay cares about us.... I wanted to cry bc he rly does! Thnks shay(:

[@joshflitterfan]

Both of these men are wonderful and inspirational. I'm glad I watched this video.

[@libbabuf]

The way his brain works is so funny! I like him a lot!

[@thepooderdiaries]

I cried. Love love this. I am overweight and I feel like if I had more support maybe I'd do better

[@BinnyD]

Nice to see Shay not get a word in edgewise for a change! What great synergy these two have!

[@artist45]

I'm now 52 and have M.S. In 1995 when my kids were young (and I was still healthy), I started Weight Watchers. I also started power walking. Every single evening when I walked I listened to Richard's walking tape on my walkman (wow, that really ages me!) That tape helped me lose 60 pounds and I never got tired of Richards encouraging voice. I still have the tape and it's a prized possession...reminding me of a wonderful time in my life :)

[@raelinjanis82]

Thank you guys! Keep of the good work. I loved this video, I laughed, I cried... Richard it's so wonderful that you answer your e-mails! Love it. God bless and keep you all.

[@PoliUlloa]

THE most ADD interview i've ever seen!

[@TheTaylorholman]

Im cracking up!! CANNOT STOP LAUGHING...... at least I'm working on my abs, right? :P

[@extractorz9520]

you have met Shaycarl thats so cooolll!!!

[@TheTaylorholman]

hahaha YEAH! at vloggerfair this past summer :)

[@heartbreakvigilante]

"And try to save money up for a set" LOL Shay was in stitches.

[@rdidri]

Just watched Shay's video where he lost 5 lbs of water weight in one day in order to make his 4% weight loss for his contest. This is completely opposite of what he talks about at 14:20. Needs to practice what he preaches.

[@dontquityourdaydreams2416]

He only did that to reach a deadline. It's like cutting weight for sport the next day you most likely gain it back because its water weights

[@CurseTempo]

Did you even watch his videos? He talks about this jeez. Do you're research before you talk crap.

[@Sicklymade]

You do realize that water weight comes back the very next day right? He isn't doing shortcuts.

[@Elizerebourg]

This video is probably older.

[@mocachinaa]

I often think 'Shay! Let him/her talk!' But now i was 'Richard! Let Shay talk!' Wow that man is crazy! Just by watching this he wore me out ;-) !

[@marianpayne6727]

I know this is old but i really miss seeing him,more people loved him then he knew.

[@clinton141]

Hey shay, I know it was probably very stressful having Richard Simons on set. I think you did a great job working with him. Good luck in the future !!

[@tylonap21]

I think shay has met his match. I loved this!

[@Daisyjean94]

He's so sweet :) I like Richard, he seems to really care about helping people not just selling himself or his product unlike a lot of other weight loss gurus, granted he makes money doing it but I really think its not solely about the money. He reaches out to people who realistically need to lose weight and is realistic about the weight loss, again,unlike the rest of those weight loss "pros".

[@thegawdess]

Love the interview, but the background music is distracting. It's hard to hear Richard at times.

[@amybro1]

Is that shay blushing? I never thought I'd see the day!

[@kychaffin]

Ahhh I've been dying to see this. At my elementary school we would always have to workout to Richard Simmons in rainy days. Love you shay!!!

[@LovelyLadida]

Richard Simmons is an out of control crazy. I'm sure he is a good guy, but I prefer Shay's controlled crazy..This video was quite awkward and uncomfortable at times..

[@nickstanley86]

You are an idiot.

[@ihaessler]

One of the best interviews I have seen. Awesome

[@KumarisChannel]

This was HILARIOUS! Was laughing non-stop! They both are alike in weird ways! Thank you for making me laugh and entertained! :-)

[@dewaynehart]

I really like Richard Simmons, Shay and Richard are awesome! I think they are having a really fun time together on this.

[@leighannwelklw]

I'm from Texas and the way he said pralines was driving me crazy! Lol, awesome message! Thanks guys!

[@OMGshinyobject]

Amongst all the awkwardness and humor the advice Richard has is so true about being patient and humble

[@KatieSparkles]

Richard is amazing and hilarious love it! And hes also really sweet

[@heatherclemens6286]

He stayed at a hotel where I worked and he stopped and greeted every employee and guest. Mr. Simmons sure knows how to make an entrance! :)

[@XchelijoX]

I love Richard! I remember my mom obsessing over his videos as a kid. And I'd dance with her. lol.

[@suebee519]

This was so great! Inspiring AND entertaining. I can only imagine how difficult it would be to do a video like this with the crazy Richard Simmons. But Shay, you were a pro. Your quick wit made it look so easy. Fantastic job!

[@TheGeocachingVlogger]

This is such a appropriate team. Both such very inspirational people. Great video.

[@nataliepotesta1995]

Wow that was beautiful, Richard and dead on. Shay is amazing man with heart and so r u! Xo

[@kelleyhawkins-espana7899]

I have loved Richard for 30 years. Hes so motivational and a great human being. He is a prime example ok keeping the weight off!!

[@houseofbows]

Is this what having add feels like?

[@kristymarler1909]

You were so patient Shay! Richard is an icon but hard to watch because of his antics.

[@CravinMorehead420]

Shay, you finally met your match. Hahaha

[@EhrickMason]

Shay, not sure if you're looking for a career in hosting...but Richard completely controlled this interview. A bit annoying for me to watch especially when you pulled the "food" slip from the bowl. I don't think you even talked about the importance of food. Richard got off topic so many times and his stories most of the time were not related. Dont get me wrong, Richard is funny and he also took this interview where ever he wanted. He couldve talked about kangaroos for 3-5 mins and you couldn't get him on target. just some feedback.

[@SarahHeartsDrums]

I just died when Shay said "if you're gonna spew, spew into this"!! Lol I looooove Wayne's World!!!

[@dannylast8707]

nice vlog, nice to see richard in this relaxed atmosphere,,very likeable guy..and he really cares.. thanks richard

[@Aluciel286]

I thought he was pretty crazy the whole time until the end. What a heart felt statement. And it's true, Shay.

[@TRACYBORGHESANI]

Richard Simmons made me cry. How the F did that happen? He said everything I feel there at the end. I just wish I could loose the weight but I really suck a dieting. I mean I REALLY suck at it. Thankyou for all the advice.

[@veronica0406]

Awesome video, loved it. Thank you both! :-)

[@MissPopeyes22]

The part about saying no to bad food is so true. I would always say no to dessert and my friends will always say "its worse if you forbid yourself....you'll want it more" and I think "no!" Coz its worse if i do take a bite of this super fudgy yummy dessert and i love the taste and want more

[@FireStar32005]

Thank you so much for this. This really helped me out a lot!

[@MattnAbby]

I started gaining weight around Gavin's age. Before that I was extremely petite. I grew up as the fat girl yet my mum would never help me lose weight. Whenever I said I wanted to lose weight she would tell me I was going on a seafood diet ... Meaning see food and eat it! I've lived out of home for 6 years and had two kids. When my youngest ( now three) was one I started to lose weight. I'm on a stall ATM but I'm still trying to lose more weight and I'll keep on going until I get to where I want to be. I need to learn to eat more. Healthy of course. Because I have a tendency of not eating till night times due an eating problem I had as a child. You're a huge motivator shay

[@Suki-Tawdry]

Two of my favorites!! Awesome!! Love you both!

[@pezliz]

This was so awesome. I love how tame Shay seems with Richard :)

[@shannonkatherine]

This is my favorite interview ever. This--my two favorites.

[@angiesiege]

LOL... the part where they talk about Simmons getting hit by a Sara Lee truck had me laughing so hard I almost fell off my chair! Suddenly I had this visual in my mind of sequins and plastic rhinestones exploding everywhere on impact! OMG... I must be over tired or something because I can't stop laughing!

[@RitaChavdarian1]

Such good advice not only for someone losing weight but anyone with a goal. Thanks Shay and Richard! :)

[@DeJacked]

Great interview but the background music is killing me! Anyway, I love when someone can get Shay to blush... makes me smile :)

[@vma862]

I loved, loved, loved this interview!

[@SoulsNefarious]

Robin Williams and Richard Simmons in a buddy cop movie would be amazing. The outtake movie would be even better.

[@fanniemelander]

I'm glad for Shay that he got to meet such an icon, but I think that Simmons was a bit rude to Shay.. He didn't let him talk and made fun of Shay's looks even though he isn't that pretty himself ha ha. Don't get me wrong I just think that the respect should go both ways. Richard might be the "icon", but he should respect Shay and let him talk as well.

[@jimmymoz9140]

WTF are you smoking ...This guy had a blast interviewing RS. You have a warped idea of what being rude is .

[@di62902]

I cried when Richard was talking about support I am a mother who is grossly overweight. Growing up I was always told IF YOU JUST LOST 10 more lbs you would be so pretty. I wasn't over weight then. When I had my daughters I choice to say and do positive things with them. Now is my turn to loose the weight that I gained over the years. I know that I didn't gain the weight over night so the weight isn't going to come off over night.

[@atreju305]

I wanna see the future video of you, Shay, visiting Richard in his studio! GO! :-)

[@CubbyCole22]

Absolutely hilarious...so many one liners from Richard I can't choose my fav ones

[@suzeeqew]

LOVED this soooooooo much! i used to dance with richard on the dancing to the oldies video in my livingroom.he is so motivational and inspirational. just like YOU,shaycarl!AND a big ol goofball like you too.LOL -although your shayloss channel has helped so many,i don't know if i can keep up with you.i've got about 20 years on you.and since i'm older,like richard is,i do believe i'll look him up to see if i can get a little healthier again.ok.a LOT healthier.thank you shaycarl for reintroducing an old friend back to me! :)

[@HumpNugget]

Poor Shay, to have Richard look at ya like your crazy must be so sad... LOVED this video... Would pay for the raw footage!

[@jl60306]

Absolutely love Richard Simmons, this interview is AWESOME.

[@sophiaguerra585]

I don't care what any of these comments say, this video was super inspiring and funny, and I love it! Thank you shay

[@ConnieTryon]

I think Shay met his match with Richard Simmons :0)

[@JesusSwag6969]

High five to Shay for actually being able to complete this interview, very professional. I'd of left.. Yeah, I definitely would of left..

[@imxsoxridiculous]

Me too. I almost clicked out the video. But I like to hear what Shay has to say...

[@JesusSwag6969]

I couldn't even finish the video so props to those that could.. I even tried skipping just so I could finish but it was not to be :(

[@SS-pv6rd]

It's awesome that Richard tears up the piece of paper that says FOOD lol... nice :)

[@jrwheeler81]

God, I love him. I'm so sad that he's no longer with us! RIP, Richard! Your legacy will live on forever! 💗

[@Tatertot274]

I agree completely. I loved Richard Simmons! Cute dog btw!

[@allisonraeg.8918]

So funny and so inspiring. Love it Shay!

[@whitneydenise]

I love him so much

[@hamster130]

Richard Simmons has an odd obsession about white teeth. I remember watching an episode of Who's Line Is It Anyway and he fell in love with Wayne Brady and his perfect white teeth lol I freaking love him.

[@adamuk752]

I love it when someone is crazier than Shay!

[@tbceyes]

What a wonderful video shay!!! I really enjoyed it!!!

[@ausernameofsorts]

Shay Carl Butler, you have met your match.
