Raft Match with Jacob Anderson

[@AutumnBottomBrown]

I FORGOT TO UPDATE MY SPECIAL THANKS AT THE END: THANK YOU OBVIOUSLY TO JACØB ÅNDËRSÔN AND MIMI COLLINS MY ZOOM INTERVIEW EDITOR/SAVIOR

[@jordanparker657]

I have listened 3 times and tonight, it will be Sam followed by Jacob. These are so well done, so much fun. We have shared, tweeted and hope it helps you grow. You deserve it!!! All of us unhinged members of the Fandom wonder if you might possibly be able to get a joint Sam/Jacob interview? Even a 10 minute zoom would be a blessing. Thank you Dear Lady 😊❤

[@cunning-curufin]

There's nobody like Jacob Anderson, truly. He's delightful. So magnetic and funny goddddd 😭 Just like with Sam Reid, I know he has a whole thesis on Louis somewhere in his head that I would love to read. He brought so much needed life to the character that now I can not imagine the rest of this show without him taking a large role. His Louis is NOT going to just blend in with the background, and that makes me so happy and excited for what the future holds. Jacob, the man that you are, the Actor that you are!!!! Love that he put the little plush a fan made him back there, so cute. Also, I've been enjoying the two singles he has put out. His lyricsssss aaaaaa 🥲💛 good stuff. So much talent inside one man. It's amazing.
