[@diinalens]

actually the interviews on this channel are always very good and in-depth but i think that since the interviewer isn't a native english speaker sometimes it's hard for him to articulate the question in a more interesting way.

[@stephmiddleton269]

It was this question that sent Alex head even more west and Miles didn't know what say so just started gasping for air 😂😂😂😂 that interviewer must have known they'd been up for days to ask them sensitive questions like that 🫠

Something about them in this video, Particularly Pupperty

[@mayaifrach7496]

Why are they laughing so hard when the interviewer is calling them the last shadow puppets at 02:01??

[@anabeatriz_6257]

Because they are on drugs 😂 it's the only explanation

[@iancartier77]

@@anabeatriz_6257 before that the interviewer spoke with them impromtu, and by the osund of his voice it was evident he was nervous, so he took out his notes which were followed by that silly "so last shadow puppets" so all that made them laugh. But yes, if they weren't on drugs, they could've handled it professionally. I'd love to see the look on the interviewer's face during that moment xD

[@tanuxox28]

5:49 Alex be like 'dude, just make something up!' XD

[@pinelopiliraki2807]

I honestly like the way they express themselves because they don't try to fake anything and there is no hesitation. So i wouldn't jump immediately to the conclusion that they are intoxicated. They just look really comfortable both with each other and the interviewer. Their whole vibe is childish and that is a fact that hasn't changed all these years. Moreover they create magic every single time and they seem as if they are willing to continue their collaboration. At least that's what i wish for.

[@heijiju]

This interview is legendary. I'm watching it for the 5th time and I really admire how these two minds work and how they express themselves in general.

He’s not doing that too well hahaha

[@rachaelsneddon7220]

I don't think Alex is doing cocaine, his behaviour would be much more sporadic. And I don't think he is doing heroine either because he has not lost a lot of weight (people who do heroine often go without food) as well as his sentences generally making sense, he is to on the ball with his comments. Pretty sure he doesn't like interviews that much, especially this one (I can see why the interviewer's a knob) He is just tired, bored and a bit pissed off and they probably smoked a big spliff before they got interview. not heroine or cocaine.

[@dougster701]

Hopefully Yeh

[@ositahok]

My thoughts exactly "sometimes we don't know what button we are pressing with out little finger" COME ON! "balloons halfway through their deflation scattered around the room" the fk is that. it's like he's just playing with words and with the interviewer bc he doesn't care
