Ben's footage is actually from an interview with someone else and Pat just formatted it to make it sound like they were talking. Unfortunately for Pat, Ben still somehow managed to disrespect him.
There is nothing i wouldn't do to make these interviews a long running series on Polygon. I went to the Sonic movie opening weekend because of the last interview, and now this interview makes me really want to watch space force. PLEASE DO MORE INTERVIEWS BETWEEN BEN AND PAT!
The big brother in like a 90s or 00s film who's cool and supportive but also emo and probably depressed. he is there to be big brother to you but whomst is there to be big brother to him :'|
I love watching good comedy improv because it's the opposite of the sinkhole. A good improv team looks like they're ice skating on open water, somehow not falling in.
No, we need the visuals...it needs to be an entire series of them going out to breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner - but at different times of day at different places. Maybe 1 per each season. I'm probably going too far with this concept, but I'm going to pitch it to Netflix anyway.
I see sleepy Charlie in the background, providing emotional support to Pat through his sheer presence and I just want to say that I love and appreciate him.
Hey so this is a reply i left to someone else’s comment as they asked the same thing. “..I’m far from an official source but I would like to offer educated speculation in hopes that it may appease your curiosity. The question you ask leads me down two paths, one of these is that sonic has anthropomorphic human-hedgehog hands that are hairy like an animal but actually have human fingernails, like he did in the original trailer for the sonic film, which depicts his hands as a white-tan what would be a cross between the color of his tan skin, and the white color of his gloves. I think they did this in the original trailer because their answer to 3D sonic was to give him real hands, but they still wanted it to look flush with the original design so they made the hands kind of whiter than his skin tone. A deeper theory that I made up based on this answer is that their sonic they made for the trailer actually usually does wear gloves, but in the movie he doesn’t have them on, so his hands look like they haven’t seen the light of day since 1991 when he was created. An alternative answer however would be that in the canon sonic games, sonic would have hands that are more akin to paws, that have claws or talons and look like the actual paws of a hedgehog, but just bigger and more cartoonish so they could still in canon fit within his iconic gloves” personally I think it’d be gross if sonic has human like hands, and the game sonic unleashed where he turns into a werewolf-hedgehog depicts his hands as having claws that are more like big paws than human hands.
this video truly made my heart rate skyrocket. never before has an interview elicited such a physical, visceral reaction from me. i've been nervously sweating for an hour now
If Patrick Gill could interview Ben Schwartz every four months, I think I could survive just about anything. Whatever it would take to reach that next interview, I would overcome it.
this is the hardest i’ve laughed in a long time!! you two have a wonderful energy together!! please have ben on an overboard or something seriously this is so good. i really appreciate the graphics as well clayton you are killing it lately tytyty
Editors everywhere have been clocking in overtime since they are forced to make single-camera long-cuts visually engaging, and they have been killing it
"i think there's so much fun playing the person who's overconfident and thinks he's nailing it but never is" accompanied by the slow zoom into patrick's face is the most brutal own here
I hoped we'd see more Ben Swartz + Pat Gill on this channel but didn't really expect it to happen. You've set a precedent now and my hunger will be insatiable.
There is just SO MUCH CHEMISTRY there. I'm not quite sure how to read it, but you can cut the air, that's how tense this situation is. Is Ben Schwartz crushing on Pat, has he secretly been hired to assassinate him, are they switched at birth and only Ben knows about it, are they long lost siblings fighting for their Scottish grand uncle's inheritance, what is it you're not telling us!?
patrick told us not to say to pay him more, but i think he at least deserves some compensation for having to endure the mental distress that ben schwartz invariably causes him
is it just me or did it look like he pulled it back a little?? i was looking on twitter and i saw someone suggested he should put in in a man bun and then watching this i was like "the mad lad, he really did it!"
@@kristenr6385 ok watching it again i feel like during the militarizing breakfast debacle, it seems like there's sorta like a ring in ben's hair, maybe like he just was wearing a hat for a while, but i think it also could be like a kinda loose head band to just keep the tallest part of the hair down.
I want Pat to interview Ben about anything and everything he does. Not necessarily movies or TV shows. Ben had some toast this morning, let's have Pat interview him.
I just watched the first one the other day bc I literally love it so much. I want to have more of that chaotic energy in my life. Also my favorite love-hate-relationship ever!
I did not expect this, but I am so happy it happened! This honestly made my day, I could watch these two talk for hours. We need a podcast or something!!! Thank you to Pat, Ben, and everyone at Polygon for the amazing content
This is not the first time Patrick Gill has been destroyed by Ben Schwartz. bit.ly/37jb0Rs
I know this isn't game related but I NEED an interview or any type of interaction with Pat, BDG, Middleditch, and Schwartz.
@@nicholasmanley6891 no room/zoom call will be able to contain the absolute energy of all 4 of them together...

and hopefully it won't be the last

The reason they’re not in the same room isn’t because of quarantine.
It’s because of the restraining order.
i love that with their dynamic it could be either one who has the restraining order against them
@@emmad799 I figured they both had a restraining order on each other.

man i love that guy
Clayton's editing has always been good, but lately it's really popping and working for me. 11/10
came here to say this!
“yeah”
“yeah”
“yeah”
The cuts back to his face with zoom to emphasise Pat was faking expressions.
Ben's footage is actually from an interview with someone else and Pat just formatted it to make it sound like they were talking. Unfortunately for Pat, Ben still somehow managed to disrespect him.
You should check out the Weird Al interviews. It's exactly that.
Yeah, it's really great how he cut it to make it seem as if Ben had said 'Patrick Gill'
nice editing!
@@midivilplanet love the weird al interviews. the eminem one is classic
Is this true?
@@jdellabeat6245 from a certain point of view ;)
When Pat asked about the breakfast I thought "Ben's gonna get him". he did.
he got him.
@@polygon he got got.
@@polygonIntercontinental ballistic breakfast!
You can keep doing this forever, I don't even care what you guys talk about
Similar to conan and jordan energy
Poor Patrick...
The Beagle (Bengal?) Schwartzgill podcast.
The sheer confusion at 1:09 when Ben moves out of the way to reveal Pat's own face is *chef's kiss*
This is more bullying than an interview.
Im here for it
yeah
Not sure who is bullying who
@@polygon yeah
@@szymonnowicki8412 I'd say it's Ben bullying Pat
@@Ella-yr2xf yeah
The editing on this owns bones, here I thought this dynamic couldn't be heightened, and yet.....
the long awaited sequel of gaslighting
railroading
Ben Schwartz just wanted another opportunity to mess with Pat
Joey From School I’m starting to think they became friends after the first one and are genuinely friends now
Idiot asshole as both characters and real life
There is nothing i wouldn't do to make these interviews a long running series on Polygon. I went to the Sonic movie opening weekend because of the last interview, and now this interview makes me really want to watch space force.
PLEASE DO MORE INTERVIEWS BETWEEN BEN AND PAT!
Space Force was so boring I couldn't finish episode 1 and I didn't laugh once
i literally saw the sonic movie because of that interview
I liked Space Force a lot! I seem to remember Ben wasn't on screen as much as I wanted early on, though.
Pat's posters and room decor have huge "cool big brother" energy
Pat just does in general.
Of course he has a banjo on the wall!
The big brother in like a 90s or 00s film who's cool and supportive but also emo and probably depressed. he is there to be big brother to you but whomst is there to be big brother to him :'|
ok ok sorry i realized he just has johnathan byers energy
And his cat sleeping on his bed adds the "softie brother" too
Ben telling Pat he's in a sinkhole of comedy simultaneously made me so anxious and laugh so hard.
I love watching good comedy improv because it's the opposite of the sinkhole. A good improv team looks like they're ice skating on open water, somehow not falling in.
oh boy do I hope that 'Pat getting bullied by Ben Schwartz' remains an ongoing interview series
Just start a podcast already, Pat and Ben.
this would be incredible. i just want to listen to ben bullying pat for hours on end
I second this. An UNLIKELY DUO
Pat should rope in his producer as well, they can call it Pat, Ben&Tar: Hit Me With Your Best Shot
YES. I WOULD PAY UP TO FIVES OF DOLLARS TO LISTEN TO IT.
No, we need the visuals...it needs to be an entire series of them going out to breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner - but at different times of day at different places. Maybe 1 per each season.
I'm probably going too far with this concept, but I'm going to pitch it to Netflix anyway.
Us: Can we have Gill & Gilbert?
Polygon: We have Gill & Schwartz at home.
(this)
I ain't complaining
@@rawovunlapin8201 Me neither, they're both very powerful.
Imagine how good a Gill and Gilbert would be with Ben Schwartz though
🤣🤣🤣
Polygon but it's just Ben bullying Pat
these guys have amazing chemistry i want them to be best friends
Ben schwartz has chemistry with everyone
I think Pat would die out of anxiety, like a hamster.
I want one of them to adopt the other and then they do same thing in reverse so that they can be dad-brothers
I want them to date
They are mortal enemies
Patrick's eyes really show how he's so used to this, but sometimes it screams "hug me, please"
Thank you Ben Schwartz for finally tracking down pat gill for an interview, this is the hard hitting journalism we so desperately need!
I see sleepy Charlie in the background, providing emotional support to Pat through his sheer presence and I just want to say that I love and appreciate him.
glad to see that the vengeful chaotic energy these two emanate transcends the bounds of this physical plane
such raw brotherly-hatred energy, so glad to see it represented again
I need like 17 more interviews between the pair of them, but each one delves deeper and deeper into the milk issue.
i'm not sure if it's the same footage of pat awkwardly smiling that keeps getting cut to or if he's really doing that Terrified Fake Grin every time
WAIT HE DIDN'T SAY WHAT COLOR SONIC'S HANDS ARE
The public NEEDS to know
Sonic's hands are actually blue right?

@@Dropdeaddonuts I mean that's some good speculation so thank you but BEN SAID THAT HE KNEW THE TRUTH AND YET HE CONTINUES TO WITHHOLD IT FROM US
He has no fur or skin on his hands. They are only bones
never thought i would see an interview where someone roasts someone else about the concept of militarising breakfast for around a minute and a half
It's the most important meal of the day, solider!
you two have an excellent dynamic and now ben is required to join polygon. sorry i dont make the rules
Whenever someone is rude to Patrick, even if as a joke, I get instantly upset.
Clayton, I don't know how you came up with "Thanks for talking about Milk" but it's genius. Keep up the amazing work.
how many panic attacks did Pat have prior to and after this interview
And during.
@@MisterAppleEsq And after.
@@Corbomite_Meatballs And prior to.
this video truly made my heart rate skyrocket. never before has an interview elicited such a physical, visceral reaction from me. i've been nervously sweating for an hour now
congrats to Pat for not losing his shit laughing throughout this interview, what a pro
I want so badly for this interview to have happened simply because Pat and Ben missed each other
If Patrick Gill could interview Ben Schwartz every four months, I think I could survive just about anything. Whatever it would take to reach that next interview, I would overcome it.
If the only media being made in the entire world was pat and ben talking, i could live off that no problem
This has BDG and Bill Clinton energy.
BILL CLINTON!!?????
@@graciana.13 yeah the video he did where he edited it to look like he was playing board games with bill
Who's ready to play Gotcha?
This is not an arrangement or understanding, this is a marriage
Well... you know what they say: Gotcha will getcha
The fact that he basically doesn’t answer questions he’s asked is just perfect.
this whole video feels like an out of context compilation.
I feel like i accidentally joined this video conference and i am seeing something i am not supposed to
clayton fr you killed it these graphics have doubled how good this was
can you just interview Ben Schwartz every quarter, the interplay between him and pat brings me life
I’m rewatching all the Ben Schwartz x Polygon interviews after watching the Sonic 3 one and I hope they keep doing this.
I’m not even a fan of Sonic but I hope they keep making those movies for these dumb interviews
i would watch 4 hours of them bullying each other. thank you pat and ben and clayton for this gift
this is the hardest i’ve laughed in a long time!! you two have a wonderful energy together!! please have ben on an overboard or something seriously this is so good. i really appreciate the graphics as well clayton you are killing it lately tytyty
dude i NEED ben on overboard esp. back when it returns to being irl
Get Ben a guest spot on the next Cyberpunk session.
PAT AND BEN SCHWARTZ AGAIN HELL YES
One minute in and I'm already smashing that mother flippin' like button.
I liked, commented, and subscribed. Vene, vidi, vici.

@@cupofcakee frick off, I'm a bad boy 😎
2:53 Oh my _god_ Clayton you're killing me
out of all of polygons vids, this is the one i least expected to get a sequel.
i am so, so glad it did.
I love their dynamic so much honestly
pat gill and ben schwartz is not the duo we deserve, but the duo we need
Ben:
Pat: *nods and swallows*
😄😄
Pat Gill is now canonically Ben's dad. I don't make the rules, sorry, this- it just is what it is.
Pat Gill and Joe Keery as Ben Schwartz' two dads, i love it
Glorious example of a quarantine interview, the editor is a character in their own right.
"special thanks/apologies"
I think Clayton is an unsung hero because the editing lately has been FIRE.
Editors everywhere have been clocking in overtime since they are forced to make single-camera long-cuts visually engaging, and they have been killing it
My immediate thought when I saw sonic might get a sequel was that a second interview with pat would happen and it was everything i hoped it would be
thank you for this interview, Ben's 6 stans are being fed so well
the other four stans are Slacking come get y’all juice already
we're thriving
i love that we all decided to turn towards stanning Ben Schwartz during quarantine
Rachel LaDue it makes me so happy finding new stans because I’ve been all alone for years
These comments are gold
This has such amazing Space Ghost C2C energy. I love it so much
very strong himbo energy in this one, patrick, 10/10
Ben Schwartz is a terrifying presence
"i think there's so much fun playing the person who's overconfident and thinks he's nailing it but never is" accompanied by the slow zoom into patrick's face is the most brutal own here
I love pat and ben so much but honest to god clayton you are the real mvp in this one you are so unyieldingly brutal to pat it's amazing
These two are honestly meant to be good friends in real life
Love these two together. These videos easily belong in any discussion about all time greatest interviews.
This editing is the height of all media production.
My new favorite duo!!!
this is beautiful. i never expected it to happen again but then you went and done it
I hoped we'd see more Ben Swartz + Pat Gill on this channel but didn't really expect it to happen.
You've set a precedent now and my hunger will be insatiable.
i can't describe how much i love these fucking interviews
you forgot to tease out the conditions by which you would interview ben schwartz a third time!!! where’s the suspense!!
There is just SO MUCH CHEMISTRY there. I'm not quite sure how to read it, but you can cut the air, that's how tense this situation is. Is Ben Schwartz crushing on Pat, has he secretly been hired to assassinate him, are they switched at birth and only Ben knows about it, are they long lost siblings fighting for their Scottish grand uncle's inheritance, what is it you're not telling us!?
Well phrased, you captured the dynamic exactly.
"The moon landing wasn't filmed" has to be the funniest thing I have heard today
I needed this in my life so badly I can’t believe it’s real
The chaotic energy is impeccable
The editing on this makes it one of my favorite videos ever
the video ends when ben says 'what are you, my dad?' because it was then revealed that patrick is indeed his dad.
the editing on this...... incredible. this is precisely how my brain works
"Special Thanks/Apologies: Ben Schwartz" don't apologise to him, he doesn't deserve it
that awkward pause edited in at 6:20 had me crying
he’s BACK
This is one of the funniest and most entertaining interviews I have ever watched. Why is this so underrated?
patrick told us not to say to pay him more, but i think he at least deserves some compensation for having to endure the mental distress that ben schwartz invariably causes him
These two dudes have the best chemistry. I would watch them talk about anything.
The only thing I love more than BDG is Pat interviewing Ben Schwartz. Pat is perfection.
I love this dynamic so much. Thank you to Patrick for being game and to Clayton for heightening... everything. Just a glorious interview.
This is the power couple that the world needs. They get on like a house on fire
Since Gill and Gilbert ended I’ve been hurting HARD for some consistent Pat energy, and these interviews give me that dose like a shot in the arm
ben’s hair looks surprisingly tame in this interview and I can only imagine how much product that took to achieve
is it just me or did it look like he pulled it back a little?? i was looking on twitter and i saw someone suggested he should put in in a man bun and then watching this i was like "the mad lad, he really did it!"
Rachel LaDue honestly I would be here for it but I can’t really tell in this video (it still seems to be sticking up in the back and sides but idk)
