It's genius, notice how he answers the questions seriously everytime Larry doesn't use the cards. The second Larry picks up the cards Eric changes completely.

Imagine watching someone interview Eric and then seeing the "we'll be right back" card when they cut to commercial; when the show returns, they're on the Eric Andre Show set.
I do that with anyone w a cellphone in there hand and trying to have a conversation. They aren't engaged at all and its terrible, so just make it fun for you

King is a funny guy (though not as funny as he thinks he is), and even does his own "comedy" shows where he tells funny stories from his life. He is definitely a fan of the medium, though, and funny people generally.
I think Eric Andre is the most human guy out there. All he wants is a connection, nothing else matters or can take his mind off of that. Mad respect for the guy.
I think I figured it out... Eric studied music all his life, and went to Berklee, but gave it up because Justin Bieber exists, is popular, and makes money. In his mind "High Art" has no purpose, because "Low Art" exists, and sells. That's the foundation of his philosophy, and approach to entertainment. Larry King is the absolute opposite end of the spectrum, so seeing these two together is really something.
So evident that Eric doesn't enjoy interviewers that are there to simply "interview" and not develop some kind of connection. He just takes you deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole the more BS he hears.
Yusef Dali Except there was nothing even potentially funny about his answers about music, so anybody can tell that it would be a good time to follow up. I think he was a challenge for Larry, tbh, and he tried to double down on his linear approach to the interview.
Yeah he has the cue cards to keep the guest on track but the fact that he couldn’t corral Eric, or wouldn’t, shows a lack of care in the interviewer in my opinion. As if he didn’t care for the answers and conversations his questions invoked. Not sure if Larry has always been like this but it definitely isn’t a good tactic
The result is an interview with substance. An interview that stands a great chance of being remembered well into the future, along with the brains themselves.
When you pay attention, Eric Andre is actually really intelligent...on a side note, him walking the line if being himself and not completely owning the interview is interesting to say the least.
He's a genius and you can see this power struggle between these two. Eric wants to have real and genuine conversation with Larry. Larry has to keep interviewing him and even tho he's getting annoyed you can see he does like him. Larry King knew wtf was gonna happen.
He honestly is pretty smart with his interviews. He really tries to use the guest's backgrounds to make them unconfortable. TI with his homophobia, Lauren with her eating disorder, Kimmel with his fake laughing, the two faces of Pauly D
also i love how larry plows through most of andre's bizarre, provocative one-liners but randomly decides to go with a handful of them in complete seriousness. he seemed genuinely interested in the details of tiger impregnation, free-hand circumcision and televised skydiving suicide.
I'm not sure about the tiger but I think there's another layer to all of those tangents. When Eric Andre impregnating the tiger Lary King asks him what he would do with the child. Eric says he would raise it. This actually tied into their conversation about fatherhood at the end. Then the suicide actually ties into what Eric Andre sees for his future; self destruction for the sake of showy spectacle.
I'd like to think that Larry is just playing his part while Eric is playing his. When Andre is like "I gotta be your least favorite guest" Larry smugly agrees at first but then he grins and says "No I love ya". He seems consistently intrigued by Andre's absurdity. Sounds crazy but I actually sense an underlying mutual appreciation here, despite the generation and culture gap. After all he invited Andre to be on the show and promoted him.
@@eugeniobonello418 considering most of the comment section is debating this, it's obviously not clear. It might be clear to you, and you may also be wrong. The only people who truly know, are Larry and Eric individually and eeeeeven they could have different opinions on how the interview went.
What follows after is basically Eric asking, why doesn’t Larry want to hear his real answer? Larry’s reply implies that Eric is there for the craziness, so get back to the craziness...
It's art; non sequitur, surrealist art. the point is people are sick of traditional talk shows, and their uninteresting dialogues that could put you to sleep. the point is its spontaneousness keeps it fresh and entertaining. the show itself is a artwork for the guests as well, jolting the guests with intense emotions and a sense of confusion; it's like a surreal feeling of reality and expectations breaking down and entering a dream world, a glimpse into the unconscious, it shows the guests reacting as their true selves, "unscripted", to something they had no idea was coming, which is a good way to get a sense of a someone's personality and even morals, without asking all the serious questions. And it's funny.
Solid take. I would boil it down to millennials being tired of meticulously curated and rehearsed spectacle and celebrity, but also a sense of pleasure from seeing celebrities squirm.
I don't think it's fair to say people hate on traditional shows, but this kind of medium is sure a breath of fresh air. However, trying too hard or having an ulterior motive can go into bad taste too. Eric rests on the "don't take it too seriously" side of the "uncanny valley" of entertainment, because he actually doesn't seem to have an agenda in his shows.

A lot of people are talking about Larry and Eric being so different but I honestly was surprised how much Larry humored him. He had a great sense of humor.
Larry King: I'm trying to be serious! Eric: (finally getting serious about why he didn't pursue music) Justin Beiber sells records, and I knew incredibly talented musicians who.... LK: (Interrupts) What made you switch to comedy?
Larry King hasnt heard of Hannibal? Hannibal was the first person to break the story that Bill Cosby was a complete pervert in one of his comedy routines.
Just wait. In season 6, Eric will announce Larry King as one of his guests, and "Larry" will just be a plastic skeleton dressed up to resemble the late talk show host.
As much as I do admire Larry King, there was so much more that Andre was willing to express. Maybe not his true self but at least an identity. Something that people could relate to, because he Andre is a brilliant individual.
Wish this interview was two hours long, but their chemistry was hilarious and I loved it. You could tell Larry thought Andre was awesome and he figured ‘hey, if he’s going to make a joke out of the questions, I’ll make a joke out of reading them’ and he did and the whole thing was he was trying to get the interview done as quick as possible as he and the audience tried to survive the onslaught of crazy Andre was dishing out lmao. Awesome interview 10/10. If I was told Andre was going on Larry King I never would have thought it was dis epic
It's also Eric's job to convey that though. If you are acting like a child it's obvious there's probably something you want to communicate but just don't for fear of, I don't know, not being able to express yourself? But if Larry pushes Eric gives him bs, if he has something he actually wants to say he should cut the bs and say it. I do feel Larry could have gone further into the suicide bit, he asked general questions but didn't ask why he would do that. For attention and validation, Eric alluded to that, but getting to why he feels the need for that validation could be interesting. Or maybe he just feels like he can't express himself so he took up music but got scared as he saw no profit in it so he settled on trying to make people feel the same as him instead of actually communicating his real feelings because I suppose he isn't quite sure how.
this is the best interview I have seen in such a long time. Two geniuses from completely different perspectives of entertainment at each other's throats in the most reasonable way. Beautiful stuff, suffered through the whole thing with a great sense of present awkwardness. "On edge"
It's like watching The Critic interviewing Bugs Bunny. I love it. One party relies on logic and hard grasp on reality and Eric's role is the constant subversion of that. Every moment has potential.
In my 38 years of living this is one of the greatest interviews I’ve ever seen. I keep coming back to this every so often especially if I’m feeling down.

I guess without all the beating
If Batman and Joker were friends
Eric: I’m a Jew
Larry: ok I’ll pay attention again
He lives in a time where Israeli wasn't treated as good as white people. So he has that supporting spirit when he sees another jew.
Larry was not a Zionist. He cared about oppressed people, period.
@@wehosrmthink7510 I doubt eric andre is though
@@minister2965 Israeli? You mean Palestinian people who are killed by the Israeli army?
@@marceelino Its really both sides doing it.
Interview got derailed so hard lmao. This shit is almost better than the show.
I'd like to think that Larry is just playing his part while Eric is playing his. When Andre is like "I gotta be your least favorite guest" Larry smugly agrees at first but then he grins and says "No I love ya". He seems consistently intrigued by Andre's absurdity. Sounds crazy but I actually sense an underlying mutual appreciation here, despite the generation and culture gap. After all he invited Andre to be on the show and promoted him.
At last! An intelligent reading of the interview. Pity I had to scroll down so far to see it.
i would love to think so, and it crossed my mind. but it’s clearly not the case
@@eugeniobonello418 considering most of the comment section is debating this, it's obviously not clear. It might be clear to you, and you may also be wrong. The only people who truly know, are Larry and Eric individually and eeeeeven they could have different opinions on how the interview went.
I agree, they both have their style and it's messy for sure, but we all enjoyed it
Congratulations you have eyes lol unlike 80% of this comment section apparently
I think it's funny when he finally is giving Larry a legitimate response, Larry gets impatient and rushes him on (13:10).
What follows after is basically Eric asking, why doesn’t Larry want to hear his real answer? Larry’s reply implies that Eric is there for the craziness, so get back to the craziness...
It's art; non sequitur, surrealist art. the point is people are sick of traditional talk shows, and their uninteresting dialogues that could put you to sleep. the point is its spontaneousness keeps it fresh and entertaining. the show itself is a artwork for the guests as well, jolting the guests with intense emotions and a sense of confusion; it's like a surreal feeling of reality and expectations breaking down and entering a dream world, a glimpse into the unconscious, it shows the guests reacting as their true selves, "unscripted", to something they had no idea was coming, which is a good way to get a sense of a someone's personality and even morals, without asking all the serious questions. And it's funny.
*comment left here on the post of the most interesting man in the world* 👍
Solid take. I would boil it down to millennials being tired of meticulously curated and rehearsed spectacle and celebrity, but also a sense of pleasure from seeing celebrities squirm.
i’m not reading all that. delete ur account
I don't think it's fair to say people hate on traditional shows, but this kind of medium is sure a breath of fresh air. However, trying too hard or having an ulterior motive can go into bad taste too. Eric rests on the "don't take it too seriously" side of the "uncanny valley" of entertainment, because he actually doesn't seem to have an agenda in his shows.
Where do you want to go with this talent?
*jail.*
“some people just want to watch the world burn”

He looks like someone finished game and has nothing else to do other than playing game again just for trolling purpose.

"I've been to hundreds of conventions-"
"PROVE IT"
Take a poop in front of us. And turn that poop into wine!
Rodrigo Terré 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I kept rewinding that part for days bro!
The way he responded. "prove it????"
Top ten lines of all time
President thaft.
8:22 "1960 Democratic Convention"
"President Taft."
"I can tell you're a historian." LOL
"he thinks the US government put bombs in the towers" literally the most tame idea he has ever had
I expected him to bring up the chemicals that turn the freaking frogs gay
😅😅😅😅 yall both right, n its really not his idea , its common belief for people who doubt what they saw in the news
Yet its becoming more and more truth....
311 was definitely an inside job
@@TheExFatal atrazene. it's an "organic" fungicide, one of the most widely and heavily used pesticides in the country. and it doenst just turn frogs gay it turns male frogs female. it's an endocrine disruptor and has the same effect on other animals as on frogs. amphibians just happen to be very sensitive and they live in the runoff from these farms. our water supplies are heavily tainted with atrazene
"You might also know him from "The B in Apartment 23" *Eric shakes his head, nah, they won't know that*
Crimson_Ghost pity, such an underrated show
Lol
Oddly great show
Watching these two interact is like seeing two people from separate dimensions meeting for the first time
its entertaining
A lot of people are talking about Larry and Eric being so different but I honestly was surprised how much Larry humored him. He had a great sense of humor.
Larry King: I'm trying to be serious!
Eric: (finally getting serious about why he didn't pursue music) Justin Beiber sells records, and I knew incredibly talented musicians who....
LK: (Interrupts) What made you switch to comedy?
They both were professionals in their arts. Lol
King was a big Bieber fan, couldn't have Eric disrespecting his boy like that.
"I'd book a hall, I'd book a corridor, whatever it takes."
*I'm dead*
Eric would be too
nice FSSP crest brother didn't expect to see it here!
That joke was so quick that nobody got it
@@hotmojoe2483 I didn't get it tho..
"name one convention."
"1960 democratic convention"
"President Taft!"
lmfao this was so funny and Larry's reaction is priceless
taft retired in 1913 tho,idgi.
Larry looked like he wanted to fight him
“I can tell you’re a historian.”
He was a big brotha
Larry is good. This is the closest Eric has ever been to completely candid in an interview.
Larry was the best ever.
Watch the Joan rivers interview. He almost cries.
it gets better and better the further you get into the interview
gets better the furher you go
"What is a high horse?"
"What is catch a tiger by its tail?"
*moves on*
Larry: Touché.
Larry King hasnt heard of Hannibal? Hannibal was the first person to break the story that Bill Cosby was a complete pervert in one of his comedy routines.
Well not the first, not even close. It just shocked a lot of people and went viral.
Hannibal is a landlord
That's not a good thing.
What YouWant? he’s my landlord
Hannibal buress knows how to party
Got a little emotional when he said “I’ll be on your show, Eric.”
Got a little emotional when I realized he never will now
Just wait. In season 6, Eric will announce Larry King as one of his guests, and "Larry" will just be a plastic skeleton dressed up to resemble the late talk show host.
@@CJMoody thats too far.... but its eric andre so who knows
@@RobinsMusic I'm sure he'll ask Larry's family before pulling a gag like that. There's a method to Eric Andre's madness.
@@CJMoodyEven better, they prerecorded a video together and this was all just part of the plan
"the taint is the root chakra" "when someone is tickling your taint, its a rush" i fukin died
He's not joking. The taint IS the root chakra! :)
Larry: Ive been to hundreds of conventions and-
Eric: PROVE IT.
@Royal Rosei TURN THAT POOP
INTO WINE
They just talk about Eric killing himself for a good minute.
This is like a father trying to contain his dysfunctional yet oddly hilarious demon child.
Who does this guy think he is? Martin Luther King?
Lol that made me feel all tingly in my nuggets
He's not
Coachella sucks this year
Isn't this Trevor Noah?
No. This guy was born a woman.
what a bizarre note on fatherhood to end on.
+nul that was bizzare
I think he speculated that eric is depressed inside and maybe kids is what solved larrys depression.
As much as I do admire Larry King, there was so much more that Andre was willing to express. Maybe not his true self but at least an identity. Something that people could relate to, because he Andre is a brilliant individual.
i thought i was the only one that felt that way.
Wish this interview was two hours long, but their chemistry was hilarious and I loved it. You could tell Larry thought Andre was awesome and he figured ‘hey, if he’s going to make a joke out of the questions, I’ll make a joke out of reading them’ and he did and the whole thing was he was trying to get the interview done as quick as possible as he and the audience tried to survive the onslaught of crazy Andre was dishing out lmao. Awesome interview 10/10. If I was told Andre was going on Larry King I never would have thought it was dis epic
It's also Eric's job to convey that though. If you are acting like a child it's obvious there's probably something you want to communicate but just don't for fear of, I don't know, not being able to express yourself? But if Larry pushes Eric gives him bs, if he has something he actually wants to say he should cut the bs and say it. I do feel Larry could have gone further into the suicide bit, he asked general questions but didn't ask why he would do that. For attention and validation, Eric alluded to that, but getting to why he feels the need for that validation could be interesting. Or maybe he just feels like he can't express himself so he took up music but got scared as he saw no profit in it so he settled on trying to make people feel the same as him instead of actually communicating his real feelings because I suppose he isn't quite sure how.
Larry was low key having a blast.
*Fake audience guy*
YEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!
one of my favourite parts of the show XD

19:23 “I’m trying to have a connection with you and you’re glued to the cards”
"my dad's a psychiatrist"
"does he work at home?"
oh my god lmfaoooo
yoo that had me rolling on the floor, I skipped a heartbeat
this is the best interview I have seen in such a long time. Two geniuses from completely different perspectives of entertainment at each other's throats in the most reasonable way. Beautiful stuff, suffered through the whole thing with a great sense of present awkwardness. "On edge"
It's like watching The Critic interviewing Bugs Bunny. I love it. One party relies on logic and hard grasp on reality and Eric's role is the constant subversion of that. Every moment has potential.
you watched the "trickster" video eh?
In my 38 years of living this is one of the greatest interviews I’ve ever seen. I keep coming back to this every so often especially if I’m feeling down.
