Interview with Aziz Ansari - Speakeasy

[@artistsComplex]

Is it just me or is Paul F Tompkins (on top of being an awesome voice actor) REALLY good at interviewing people? He lets them talk (not trying to out-funny anyone), he asks good questions and is interested in the answers and has a good rapport with the interviewees.

[@DavidMoscoeUni]

+artistsComplex He was born to play Mr Peanutbutter

[@blakedavis2145]

+David Moscoe IKR I JUST NOTICED HE WAS THE DOG

[@louie5581]

Yeah he is, I felt that he was putting on a face a little bit. You should watch Joe Rogans podcasts if you get a chance and haven't already. It's so good and such a natural conversation

[@waynedorsey8885]

That Louis C.K. part was fucking gold

[@jogbon]

Any other interviewer would have mentioned his name when Aziz was describing Louis. The fact that Tompkins let the audience figure out who Aziz was talking about was great.

[@michaelragan6898]

The funny part is now Louis is all about wearing suits haha

[@cnewton9183]

Only Aziz Ansari would turn an interview about him into an interview about him interviewing someone else. :) I respect him even more now. I could never understand how an individual can sit around while someone asks questions about them. I feel like I would be so uncomfortable I would just start asking them the same questions back.

[@CalviNNation]

I would love to see donald glover on here.

[@jerrygarcia8185]

I love how Aziz approached this as a conversation and not an interview. You don't have the "interviewee" that many questions to the interviewer.

[@sneakergearz]

Love the suit talk.

[@BigFatCock0]

"The biggest guy in our game wears a black shirt and jeans...all the time. Proudly. Defiantly." I'm crying.

[@kanesrevenge832]

who was the reference about

[@BigFatCock0]

Almighty Taylor Louis CK

[@prasharp966]

Or Norm Macdonald 😇

[@sh0rtaznant]

i enjoyed the suit talk

[@conorbyrne1272]

man, paul f tompkins is such a bloody good interviewer

[@MaftaFPS]

no idea why but right when he spilled the drink and Aziz was like "ohh noo!" i paused the video and literally laughed until i cried for like 5 minutes

[@phlupple]

+Tyler lmao :)

[@kalazajar8293]

The Creator

[@jtomczak100]

watched bunch of these speakeasy videos and most of the comments are about how paul is amazing at conducting interviews. he really amazing turns an interview into basically a comfortable real interview

[@papabear10000001]

probably one of my favorite speak easy episodes. aziz is a cool ass dude. i enjoyed the fact he kept asking questions back.

[@coledickerson3112]

I'm from Columbia and Aziz is like the fucking pride of this city man. I wish he would bring a tour here

[@MSPubducks]

Except he’s not from Columbia. And no one really cares about him.

[@coledickerson3112]

@@MSPubducks bro that was an 8 year old comment hahahahaha

[@derekhanger]

That Prometheus joke was one of the quickest smart jokes I have ever heard. Not a gut buster but damn witty! Loved Paul F. Tompkins on Mr. Show but I had no idea how quick-witted he is.

[@420dlo65]

The Golden Rosary man you should listen to his podcast spontanianation and on comedy bang bang him and Scott auckerman are so fast and witty I love how quick they are it makes they're improv is so GREAT

[@JohnBonini]

@@420dlo65 Cake Boss!

[@jalenlee8912]

This my new favorite channel on KZbin. Paul, get Hannibal Buress on the show!

[@marcvought]

why am i just now finding these? 2012? paul f tompkins is the best!

[@saiferoth]

"The biggest guy in our game wears a black t-shirt and jeans, all the time. Proudly. Defiantly." Hahaha shots fired at Louie CK.

[@justiceretrohunter2]

"I don't care." -Louis CK

[@818crangel]

aziz looks like someone hit fast forward on him

[@teoteum2330]

***** its exactly as it sounds lol

[@teoteum2330]

***** just look at his body gestures and how fast hes moving it looks like hes always in fast foward

[@vietcongpornsurfers]

Even more obvious if you turn the sound off!!

[@arvinbuenaagua5161]

The suit talk is the best part. Really like dressing up for my comedy sets and just hearing how much thought goes into it makes me feel seen and validated. Thanks for leading the charge, PFT and Aziz. I can't wait to be an older gentleman too.

[@MIDImorphosis]

Brb getting a suit

[@booksmeller]

just saw him last week @ the comedy cellar. really good set. love him :D

[@FORDboy357]

When Paul smiles, he looks like Freddy Mercury

[@CarrotFlowers421]

I hope these comedians look at most of the comments on these interview videos and related ones. Lots of appreciation here 😊

[@MrSkunkSalad]

You can just tell both are just really nice humble people who enjoy each others work

[@johnsnowy953]

Aziz was looking at him like, you're laughing too hard

[@DarKnightofCydonia]

I love these interviews. It's not all one way, there's a back and forth going on and both people are interesting.

[@willvr4]

"If you don't like suits, fast forward...cause the suit talk is stayin'" Well Aziz, thank you for stopping by. That's the end of this episode of Speakeasy.

[@tuckerrogers4943]

love these interviews!

[@starshinesMonet]

I love all the shout out Aziz gives to restaurants [I love] like Vij's and Momofuku!

[@KyleSteinhauser]

Honestly, the sartorial part was excellent.

[@earlybecomings]

why has this not been apart of my life from the beginning? so good

[@biancafletcher-gunev8196]

i love this interview...so entertaining and i feel like ive learned more about both parties...

[@AveCelestia]

Louis C.K.... Black tee shirts and jeans... He is now officially "The biggest guy in our game." CONGRATS LOUIS.

[@pent10]

Love the mention of Ben Silver in Charleston. High quality stuff right there!

[@stphnmrrs3982]

The mark up is crazy there!!! It's great stuff, but buy any of that stuff anywhere else and it'll be way cheaper.

[@vai82]

I could have sworn PFT wore exclusively bespoke suits. He must have a good frame, his style is impeccable.

[@LovablePWNER]

I think it's awesome that both of you guys were on an episode of Adventure Time

[@thatgirlcheree]

Just finding these conversations. Addicted already. Love them all so far! Paul is an awesome interviewer. IG @cinephilecommunity

[@GunmetalRifts]

Love the longer episodes.

[@TheMoni700]

Hearts to Aziz

[@borami22]

lol.... I seriously enjoy the interviewer having too much fun in this interview.. I'm happy if he's happy. =D

[@GrimReeper]

Suits are awesome. I have new found respect for Aziz.

[@AstronautDown]

Ah, suit-talk felt good! Love the series ;)

[@PeterSierra]

Love this show!

[@BlitzShaft]

This is some really good insight into the minds of 2 pros.

[@bissnissminn]

I kind of like this better than any other late night talk show.

[@maxdslr]

Great interviewer. Very natural

[@lebensraum]

Kind of cool to hear them talk about suites.

[@Sebastianlovesme]

Aziz looks adorable

[@SurfistaCamad]

Lovin' the suit talk haha

[@MusicIan423]

Thumbs up for the suit talk.

[@cmd2tuts]

Why unlist it? This is the best show on this channel!

[@zacharydouglas4309]

Can I get a half hour of just suit talk?

[@spookyjess]

I loved the suit talk! Aziz should have an "interview" series online and interview different celebs.

[@ChuckGetsATreat]

Loved the sartorial conversation.

[@Thr33_Kings]

Is paul wearing a pick of destiney pin?......i love him in that movie

[@pmodi1104]

Watching interview or talk shows with people from Parks and rec it's almost like they took each persons real life personality and Inserted it into a fictional world

[@71thatguy]

+Punit Modi I'd say at least aspects of that person's personality and exaggerated it a lot. Aziz is a lot more subdued and introspective than Tom is.

[@CarrotFlowers421]

Punit Modi I notice this is happening more and more with comedy. More character actors that are just hired to be themselves but only reading from scripts. You see it all over these days.

[@calebdegabriel6743]

Great suit talk.

[@mattb6638]

This is such a great interview!

[@mrbenmall]

Great show. Great episode. Now I really want to go buy a nice suit.

[@StepOver420]

Great rapport between these two !!

[@menjumba]

Loved the suit talk

[@diraska]

Loved the suit talk!

[@patneuf101]

Not going to lie, LOVED the boring suit talk.

[@humanking2212]

yeah, and it's not like they're talking about which type of jeans they like, it's suits, the classiest of men clothing

[@dayrohan]

Please tell me the songs that play on the interviews

[@dabullnice]

try listening to Django Reinhardt, and anything that's been influenced by him. also look up David Grisman. this is not exactly what's playing in the interview, but it's the same genre and sound

[@Yontanian]

Love the suit talk. I feel the same.

[@therealslamshaky]

hello Ed from scrubs. I loved you in that role.

[@FolkwoodsWest]

You are seemingly always doing a swell job, love you.

[@GirlBrushedRed777]

So I'm studying for my Music 143 (Intro to rock) final, where we've been studying how MTV exposed rap to the rest of the US outside of the Bronx. I decide to take a study break and watch this video, and what does Aziz start talking about?

[@popstar1964]

i could watch these two dudes talk suits forever

[@aik5107]

Best!

[@jtx77]

I love the discussion of suits and fine shirtings.

[@Cartwrightsrule]

Love hearing about standup!

[@Notsospicy1]

Fast forward until the end : P GJ aziz

[@tgarrett24]

Mr. Lee shoutout, the man is super dope.

[@anaiva8299]

I love Aziz. :D

[@strigilives]

[@thecrew1138]

Enjoyable.

[@grosslyoverrated]

if only i could afford bespoke suits. loved the suit talk.

[@dampiemcfly]

That's one cool cat. Subscribed! I enjoy a good suit myself. Even had one tailored in Hong Kong B)

[@MrGingerFB]

Was waiting, and just lost it when i heard it.

[@blakedavis2145]

THE INTERVIEWER IS THE DOG OFF OF BOJACK HORSEMAN OMG

[@MusicIan423]

15:26 "The biggest guy in our game wears a black T-shirt and jeans all the time. Proudly, defiantly." What, who, Louis CK? ;)

[@nashsumm]

This is an impressively good interview!

[@RattAndMouse]

He is my favourite member of Mega64

[@scgordy1212]

Paul F. is infinitely charming.

[@tomkroon7659]

I would love to hear more suit talk!

[@SpencerLeBoeuf]

8:42 is where Aziz really changed as a person for the first time after the fame and fortune...damn....

[@hehigginful]

good interviewer.

[@tr1cksh00ter]

oh god! here we go

[@GrowGlow]

loved the suit talk!

[@duncan_walker]

I'm learning from this!

[@liightsreign6024]

Born in da same place like a boss

[@SimonJable]

What a great show! I loved the suit talk. Mr Tompkins got so self-conscious when they got stuck in to that topic. Sweet.

[@RootbeerAndBeans]

of course this is ushered in by an instrumental "spooky" by The Classics :)

[@dereksibley1474]

black T-shirt guy? Ricky Gervais? awesome

[@rome8180]

He means Louis C.K.

[@Carlteezus]

I would watch a show about suits with PFT in a heartbeat. Though it would probably cost me a lot.
