The difference between an eighth grader and Bo Burnham is that, unlike Bo, the eighth grader can fit her hand inside a Pringle can.
Eric Crawford reference to his standup
Tlowief Kcalb when I was in 8th grade I couldn't fit my hand in a Pringles can 😭
I wanna have a daughter...
Tlowief Kcalb A++ reference!!!!
Valhalla So there's finally someone in the house who can fit her hand inside a Pringles can!
"Why can't we all see ourselves in her, the way we usually do for older male characters?". Bo makes a powerful observation but not followed up by Trevor.
It might have been though, this video is so chopped up that we’re probably missing 3/5 of the context to every comment.
It's not that powerful of an observation. We (as in men, which is what I believe Bo meant) certainly can see ourselves through female characters--and we do. Tons of books and movies are written with female protagonists. We have no trouble feeling what they feel. But naturally men will tend to see themselves more closely in male characters, and women will tend to see themselves more closely in female characters.
blownspeakersss Definitely not true, they tested that. Especially children can identify heavily with the other gender.
@@blownspeakersss He's referring to the diversity in filmmakers narratives. Watch The Hollywood Roundtable's close up clip, you'll understand.
@@blownspeakersss Meh, as a woman, I grew up reading more books with male protagonists than female protagonists, and it has always been natural and normal to me to identify across gender divides. Whereas I don't think men are socialized to read/play/identify with female protagonists in their books/games/movies. There simply aren't as many. Furthermore, most of the books kids are required to read in school are about men. Finally, no one bats an eye if a girl reads a book about a male protagonist, whereas people think it's weird if a boy reads a book about a female protagonist. So I do think it was a powerful observation on Burnham's part, and I think that women are raised to identify with men through popular media far more than men are raised to identify with women through that same media.
Bo is just out there begging people to just be real, be genuine; maybe we should just do it.
i was going to like this comment before i realized its at 69 👁👄👁
@@magicmaybelle4288 now it’s at 333 and i don’t wanna like it
You know the famous Shakespeare quote "The world is a stage, and we are all just actors" or something like that? I kinda feel like people who suffer anxiety are simply those who are more acutely aware of that fact and struggle to reconcile it with their own self-identity
@@magicmaybelle4288 noice
@@ForceOfWill100 I think it's also because their subconscious, and perhaps concious, cares far too much about social success and believes the person to be incapable of success. Thus, the doubt begins a self fulfilling prophecy, further entrenching the anxiety.
Something that older people don't recognize about Bo is how much that he respects his audience, and not in the traditional sense that we usually understand
He is not only proud to have a younger group of people be fans of his work, but he also sees them as more than just this group of kids. Yet also, he acknowledges their experiences as youth. He recognizes these eighth graders as complex people whose voices are just as interesting and just as important.
When Trevor said, "Welcome to the show" my brain instantly went, "this is Bo, this is his show and Bo likes to dance like this."
Even the way he says "but until then" my brain just filled in "we will repeat stuff"
My brain immediately went "it goes a little bit like this" after he said "welcome to the show."
Doo doo doo
I wonder how batshit the full unedited interview was. This was chopped up to hell and back.
Yeah, Bo is turning bright red with his arms crossed in several cuts, like he was not just uncomfortable but like freaking out. Trevor also starts by pandering to him and sort of "reading his resume" which I think unsettled Bo
He strikes me as a guy who doesn't interview well. Like Harrison Ford and countless others. But it was probably part of his movie deal to go on shows and promote. So he endures. Yo. Comedy Central! Release the full unedited interview!
i kinda get it. it's not like he cares abt being a glamorous intelectual tv show guest. dude has impressed all of the internet like ten years ago, what's left after that?
Benjamin Sawyer I think he’s just nervous and a bit awkward. It’s who he is and therefore makes great comedy
I actually love listening to all his interviews. Yes, he rambles, and repeats himself sometimes, and struggles to find words, but every once in a while he'll say something like: "I hope in the future it won't just be this IV-drip of content that ages like milk." He may sound confused, but he has the ability to see the larger picture in a way that most people can't and it's fascinating to listen to him.
This hits so much harder after watching Inside.
fr
It's Bo Yo
Greenherring 10 I can do that too
we are really enjoying your show me and my family.
He's the greatest rapper ever
Whether you think you're clever, you're not
think you're better, you're not
Two of my favorite comedians in the same room, cool
IKR? I was about to write that haha
Titaniumtomato same
I'm guessing these are the only 2 comedians you've seen
Titaniumtomato have you heard of Jimmy carr?
BILL BURR?
Bo Burnham has such a cool name
Chloe Young sounds like a Teletubbie
GO BURN EM
shhht. He's a superhero.
Its a stage name
Salam I'm sorry, it had to be done
I love how he doesn‘t make fun of 13 year old girls but sees them as people.
When I was 13 in eight grade I went through a depressive episode (it was diagnosed) and no one really took it seriously because I was just a 13 year old girl. A lot of them struggle because it is a very overwhelming and complicated time and what they really need are people like bo.
I teach middle school and his movie is the most poignantly accurate depiction I’ve every seen. He pulls back the curtain on this phase of life and treats the characters with so much compassion and respect. It also doesn’t shy away from the harsh realities of the age. I loved it.
When trevor was clean shaven and seemed hopeful of future
Now, he's taken the quarantine look and behavior too far, too long.
When Bo Burnham was clean shaven and seemed hopeful of the future. #Inside.
His anxiety and awkwardness is so relatable and human.
Would love to see the unedited version.
Same
shouldn't it be on the internet somewhere? Didn't Jon Stewart used to post the full interview online and chop it up for broadcast?
Seeing the mainstream media and world accept and take interest in a relatively smaller celebrity that Ive loved and looked up to for the past 8 years, is truely a weird feeling
Is it just me, or do you also feel like they don't fully get him and don't deserve him?
@@channel73210 He's not the comedian we deserve, but the one we need.
Okay, this is sooo late, but Trevor was that to me less than 5-6 years ago.
Is it a funny feeling?
There it is again, that funny feeling.
I love getting requested Bo Burnham content after watching "Inside"
Same dude
I can't fit my hand into a Pringles can
Razat Sutradhar you should have a daughter
(you just made my day, thank you)
What?
Still doesn't compare to having all your ingredients fall out of your taco
I can, you peasants. I shall conquer the world with the ability to fit my hand in a Pringle can
He must be speaking to the eighth grade girl in me then, cause I'm a 38 year old man and I think he's one of the wittiest comics of all time.
His special, "What," should be chiseled into Mt. Rushmore. I consistently can't believe that much quality material was all fit into a single hour.
Oh man you're gonna flip when you see his new special, 'Inside'.
@@arighostea Already have, and yes, it is amazing!
He's a wonderful comedian; one of my top three, but I dare say he's an even better musician.
I truly appreciate his contribution to providing such great "Content." He made me my favorite, and I opened wide...
Definitely don't regret driving 9 hours to Birmingham, Alabama to see his 1 hour show, "Make Happy." Totally worth it!
@@VylePhinder make happy is unreal, totally worthy.
did they just dab
Twice.
Yeah... but it was ironically, so it’s fine.
Ironically
plus: Bo admits that people of his generation are the worst on the internet, BECAUSE they do dumb stuff ironically and then think it's cool, so it was actually meta-ironic, so.... it became serious again.
Valhalla yea...I'm not that much younger than Bo, we do do that, a lot.
Man, anytime he seems uncomfortable in these promo interviews I hear him sing
"You're everything you hated... are you happy?"
and I love seeing new videos of him and it's sad at the same time.
RoMschay truly, I feel like no one is seeing this. But who knows maybe this is really making him happy/ helping him.
"hey look Ma, I made it.... are you happy?"
It's Bo, yo.
Command c, command v
And he's the greatest rapper ever.
And he'll whether you weather
Whether you think he's clever
Or not.
Ah a deep cut. Nice to see a fellow OG
He's everywhere! I get a video about eighth grade in my recommendations every day. YOU GO BO !

Oh how I wish there was a dab emoji

Is it just me, or am I the only one sitting on the edge of my seat for his next project already? The truly one and only Bo!
now i'm excited for the 2021 next project! aghh!
How are you two doing now that inside dropped?
Its a contemporary masterpiece
@@Juli-zg7sj I’ve been a fan of Bo for a decade now and INSIDE was the most profound, exhilarating, engrossing and intense experience I’ve ever had. Bo is undoubtedly a 21st century revolutionist and a lateral thinker. We’re truly spoiled and undeserving of his magnanimous contribution to art and philosophy.
@@Rachel.Greene could not have put it better myself my friend
I am addicted to everything Bo. And am in my 60's. His truth is our truth . Genius level; his talent.
Bo has been a lifesaver to me and my 7th grade son. We adore him. Freaking incredible artist and human being.
He truly is an artist. I'm now in my 40s and have been appreciating his work since he first started posting goofy but brilliant videos on YT. He draws you in with humor and catchy hooks, and then takes you on an emotional and philosophical journey. Despite his popularity, I still think he is under appreciated. I have so much respect for this guy and hope he keeps creating.
I'm so glad this is blowing up like this, Bo is an insanely talented dude and this kind of recognition has been a long time coming. I struggle to even call his stand up a comedy special, since it's far closer to performance art and is incredibly powerful. He's been a director for a long time, this time he just made a movie.

*dab*
That part caught me by surprise. Loved it! 😂😂😂
And he's the greatest rapper ever
And he'll weather your weather whether you think he's clever or not
Think you're better, you're not
Don't need a sweater, he's hot
He's a real G-shawty that can really find your G-spot .. ? Woah.
Provided that you point him in the general direction
What the hell's a G-spot?
They exist. I can describe exactly where it is, but it's a bit graphic. Here found you the best article to help you find it, and how to blow her mind. www.askmen.com/dating/vanessa_100/115_love_secrets.html
JadeDragoness77 thAtS part of bo’s song “I’m Bo Yo.”
;-) we're having fun with lyrics here -> ua-cam.com/video/Z-ap5Fp2T6c/v-deo.html
I was a teenager when I came across Bo Burnham and I related so well to him. And thank god for that because he helped me get through my angsty high school years. So yeah, teenage girls relate to him, but they need someone who can be a voice for them.
2:12 aah yes, the pinnacle of seamless cuts
Bo is amazing. I am addicted to stand up and I've been following his comedy since he was 18. He is the only comic that's ever accomplished making me laugh, think, feel guilty, and just wanna give him the biggest hug - after watching his show. He's from another planet and I wanna live there. ❤
Well edited!!! Felt very respectful and on point! Could tell that it was heavily cut, but it was made in such a good, decent and positive way. That's SO rare in TV.
With all these cuts and not one single continuity error... missed opportunity
Bo is literally so fkn unique and talented. Protect him at all costs.
Ugh please can we stop with the “protect at all costs” thing?? It’s so lame and unoriginal
I swear middle school is the worst time ever. Even as an adult, I look back at that time and get residual nausea. I don't wanna feel 8th grade again. 😖
I’ve watched Bo literally since 8th grade and have followed him since. now I’m in college and I’m so happy he’s getting the recognition he deserves. Truly a genius. Glad the movie is out everywhere, gonna check it out this weekend :D
This is so crazy! I remember watching his “what.” show on UA-cam when it first uploaded, and listening to his songs 25/8. Now he made a movie and I’m so happy for him and so hyped about this. I also feel a bit strange because this is the year I go into 8th grade..?
Honestly the interview I’ve been waiting for. I got so excited when I saw the title of this video. ‘Eighth Grade’ must come to SA
have you ever felt sad or lonely?
divya have you ever felt two feet tall?
Have you ever been stuck in puplic restroom without toilet papers??
potato muncher have you ever thought man if only, I was anybody else at all?
When you give your all
but it's not enough
I remember actively watching his youtube videos before his first album came out. Bo's been clever and hilarious for years. His Netflix special from a year or two ago is still incredible.
"Scary and weird and funny and sad" actually describes my life. In seventh grade rn.
Zoya S. You learn to navigate through those feelings the older you get. School in general is hard!
How’s eighth grade going? It’s been a year. Since this comment
how was eighth grade? it’s been two years :]
i’m almost done with seventh grade! i only have like a week left
I clicked this video thinking it would be some sort of cheap jokey thing, but the interviewer actually had some incredibly insightful questions, while still keeping the interview short and quick. Well done! But I just can't get over the way Bo walks in at the start and the first interaction fist-bumpy thing. I swear that was rehearsed hahah
Can we talk about how great of an interviewer Trevor Noah is, he was way more interested and asked much better questions than other interviewers that I’ve see
I think I have watched all videos of Bo Burnham this lockdown😭😭😭😭😭
I just thought today how much I missed Bo's performances :)
The interview felt like Trevor went to Bo to interview him not the other way around.
Bo just owned the place and discussion.
Mission accomplished. I watched the movie last night and boy did it make me feel. I felt for her, I wanted to reach out and hug her for most of the movie and I’ve never felt like it was so easy to empathize with a character. It’s also amazing to see so much of yourself while watching an experience that is inherently not your own.. but I guess that sort of encapsulates the definition of empathy. The movie does a fantastic job of bridging that gap though.
I’m about to have a heart attack! Both of my favorite comedians! I’m blessed.
I heard him say I do comedy for 8th grade girls and I was like haha but that's not me. And then I realized that my friends and I found him in 8th grade and quoted his special all the time
AHHH!!! My two most favorite people talking!
This is a weird interview. Sometimes Bo is saying really serious things, and Trevor isn't following up on them, or the audience starts laughing. It's odd.
Now I want both of them writing a movie
In the context of his new special inside saying that he wants people to come out of eighth grade just knowing that they felt makes a lot of sense
Legit genuine fucking awesome conversation
two of my fav comedians. this is gonna be good
OMG! Bo and Trevor together. Wow. My life is complete.
"chalupa baby" is something i need on a shirt with Bo's face as if it was a political campaign shirt.
His inspiration for the movie was the remarkable ability of 8th grade girls to fit their hand inside a pringle can.
I like how bo changes his welcoming handshake on the person who is interviewing him
*panicking mostly because I'm going to 8th grade and I'm a girl*
Angie Castro Nchooo you'll be fine ❤️
Boitumelo Namane :D
8th grade is a breeze as long as you stay down the right path.Ignore the "cool kids" eventually those are the people in society that parents tell their kids look at that person you don't want to be like them.
But if they talk to you talk to them don't ignore them
Nathalie Garibay Thanks!!
I thought that I would never see my two favorite comedians together and dabbing my life is now full
Two of my faves in stand up comedy!
I totally understand how he feels. That’s exactly how I am. Glad to know we’re not alone. :)
3:47 Well, 3 years later he did described the Internet himself :)
I literally just had eighth end today like 2 hours ago and i get home to see this be recommended
This is two of my favourite comedians in the same room
I can't believe it, my two favorite english language comedians in the same video!
The DAB is powerfull with this one.
I love him so much! I'm so happy to see him back
My two favorite people finally talking!! YES!!!!
Well, Bo did it. Bo talked about the Internet.
Could I interest you in everything, all of the time?
wow! this is surreal! I had a crush on both of them at one time. I am falling for them again seeing them together.
good interview. Did they cut bits out?
That is THE goal of an artist, to evoke an emotional response
I didn't want to see the movie, now I do! Video accomplished. 🙂
Didn't know I needed this
Thank you mr Noah
I've missed him so much more than I realized.
God the humility is so refreshing to see.
NOOOO WAY! He finally made it big to be on with Trevor, I am so happy, I remember his videos from his bedroom playing the E-Keyboard. #NewMath
They're both so lucky to have been able to do this.
#Chalupa *Dab*
That's such an interesting concept. Untapped potential. I hope it does well
Truly!
I love this man so muchhhh
I just graduated 8th grade, and im going into highschool. i looked up this movie and it sounds SUPER realistic to real 8th grade just by reading descriptions
This interview hits differently now that he gave us "Welcome to the Internet". You can tell how long that song was formulating.
This hits different after seeing "Inside"
What he said at the end makes me think that this year I'd the 8th grade of history and that makes you much sense
When my two hero’s are side by side...... my new favourite video
Bo and Trevor on the same stage. Blown away by the idea alone...
Bo is one of my favorite comedians/musicians
Hashtag deep
I'm convinced that Bo is actually a real genius like seriously
The sarcastic slow dab got me lel.
He is such a genuine guy
the movie made me cry twice
That dap up at the beginning tho
Oh damn, this guy's gotten even cooler. I'm fuckin 30, but i remember those 8th grade years pretty well, so i def wanna check this movie out. I never would have thought his main audience would be 8th grade girls lol. But you own it dude!! Lol
