Tan roasting the host for trying to be “brown” gave me life

[@nathanwackett7625]

this interviewer was really natural and held their own with Tan without being cringey. more of whoever this is please!

[@OkmagazineUS]

Thanks Nathan!

I'm doing marathon for Tan's interviews

Same. I feel you. If you start going on a Tan marathon you can't stop.😁😂

[@teacupglitterinfested1525]

I feel so proud that someone that is a positive model for a race that's seen as terrorists isn't afraid to address the issue. I'm even more proud that Tan is the person that's doing it.

[@eily_b]

It's so considerate of him to give Tan some time to sip his tea/coffee. :D That's what I thought the whole time.

[@gregdahlen4375]

tan is so smoothly cultured. i'd enjoy watching him in a convo with the queen of england

“In England, education is free.” *Cries in American student loans*

[@miniash1939]

Cartoon High I actually don’t know why he said that its not true?

[@melodyide2248]

It's not as bad as the American student loans, and the arrangements are quite odd (only pay it back if you earn more than 21k/year, so you may never pay it back).. But it's not free per se. No idea what it was like when he went to university though.

[@HA-dy3rn]

It was free when he went to uni!

[@bmillan6010]

I love this interview! So chill and relaxing! I like the vibe like the host seems so natural and also tan is so cool and comfortable and lovely. ALSO let's talk about how stunning this man. He doesn't have a bad side at ALL. That face looks caved out of marble he's so good looking.

[@hannahrose2862]

In England education *used to be* free. It was for our parents but now we're stuck with student debt. Still nowhere near the insanity of American tuition fees though.

[@teacupglitterinfested1525]

Tan hating authority and not listening to authority is the biggest mood that I have ever seen.

[@bmillan6010]

4:15 "I take direction worse than probably anyone you'll ever meet" "Really??? You seem so laid back" "NOOO. i am. But when someone thinks they know better than I do... " "Hows that work out in your relationship?" "Oh, I am obviously the one whos the boss" 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 🤣

[@DanielElizondoL]

I loved this interview. I felt like I was just there having coffee with my friends. Now it's time to go buy Tan's book.

[@OkmagazineUS]

Thanks!

Kate Liang thank you!

[@charliespinoza1966]

Tan makes me feel confident enough to wear a French tucked v-neck T with my flip flops. This was the best Tan interview I’ve seen, great job!

[@kojayeoja]

Talks about growing up brown in a really white city in England... ends up moving to one of the most, if not THE most, white places in America lol. But I love that he appreciates Salt Lake, I'm proud that someone like him chooses to live here. :D

[@whitsully1543]

In his defence people in the UK are much more open to showing their racism disgustingly. One of the downfalls over here

[@cliles6764]

I swear, I don't think I've ever enjoyed an interview more than this one. I'm impressed...and subscribed.

GREAT INTERVIEW

[@teacupglitterinfested1525]

The world would be such a better place if we all just listen to what Tan says about making an effort with your clothes. I feel like I can apply what I need to apply. I need polishing but I can put an effort and gain my life back in that area.

[@miapax1962]

As a British Pakistani I’m proud of you Tan 💕

the thing with jeans is that finding a pair that fits perfectly is so difficult. Like some jeans fit perfectly on butt but are too loose on the waist ugh that's why belts.

[@andreaandrea6716]

Check out the Ari Shapiro interview (an interviewer who actually understands that this is a job and that asking questions is a talent, oh, and does his homework). It's a WONDERFUL interview.

[@teacupglitterinfested1525]

9:12 when I saw it I felt represented so that was an ode thanks Tan. Don't beat yourself up that you don't understand the trans struggle or that you didn't understand. You're fucking trying and I can see that very clearly in Skylar's episode

[@teacupglitterinfested1525]

11:54 He looks too perfect like a Barbie doll that doesn't need work done but almost resembles David Bowie but not quite. Very cute.

[@marjane4344]

[@MaggieMMM]

Love Tan! Unfortunately university education in the U.K. is no longer free and hasn't been for nearly 20 years, unless your parents have saved up it will cost students £40,000 plus to get a university education which most people fund via student loans.

[@jeni150023]

Is that per year or the total for 4 years? That's roughly what average American Universities costs per year. Our Ivy league schools such as Harvard, Yale, Stanford and others cost even more.

[@MaggieMMM]

jeni150023 I believe the minimum costs for fees is £9000 a year without living costs etc...so definitely not free, I think Tan is reminiscing about pre-1997 university education in the UK. I’ve also heard him saying in the UK people leave school at 16 which is not strictly true, you used to legally be able to leave full time education at 16 but most people go into full time non-advanced education either to prep for university or to do vocational training, apprenticeships etc...

[@jeni150023]

when will jonathan, bobby and antoni release books, would be curious to know their story.

[@katfoxwell3995]

Bobby talked about this on "not too deep", i think, it's here on youtube. He thinks his story is still going on, so for him there is no point in writing a book, yet. The others all did, i think.

[@xmidsummersky]

i'm just thinking, there's the overall top best of yourself you can be, and the best you can be that day. it's a bit of a self-care thing, but sometimes i absolutely do not feel well enough to make an effort. i'll slap on my easy jeans, stretched out black jumper and be the best version of myself i can be at that moment.

[@alw87642]

I feel like Shahs of Sunset and Family Karma are never acknowledged when speaking about Tan’s experience as a gay South Asian man…. (Maybe Family Karma wasn’t out yet but Shahs definitely was)

[@MM-dq2pi]

why are the interviewer's hands white still though...

[@athanott]

Education is free? Whaaat?

[@thegirlwithglasses3153]

athanott in the uk and Europe typically

[@kojayeoja]

As he said, paid for from taxes

[@sidrahikram]

Not anymore sadly, you get govt loans which you have to repay when you start earning a certain amount. So we have debt too, but probably not at the same level as in US

[@MM-dq2pi]

uni is certainly not free in England anymore...

[@athanott]

Yeah, I had to pay for my degree in the UK, so I was surprised Tan didn’t know that Uni is paid for. Maybe he didn’t mean higher education. Anyhoo
