I love that Russell recognized how much effort autistic people put into being and doing things that are out of their routine and comfort.
must have something to do with him living with Jon Richardson, even tho he's not a confirmed autistic person
As an ADHDASDer, IT'S SOOOOO HAAAARDDDD D:
People who stutter struggle and suffer way more but instead empathizing, they mock and bully them 😂
Have you seen the episode of plebs where grumeo is aproached by a charity
I have asd and adhd, mum to 3 asd kids. Fucking love how people like him are making people aware of the little things that make a huge difference
It's so great to see Greta having fun in an interview. So many people tread lightly and don't treat her like an actual person. Well done, Russell.
That's being neurodivergent for ya - people either shit all over you because they don't know why you're slow, awkward and clumsy and double down if you tell them because then you're a "snowflake" as well as a r---, or they treat you like priceless bone china or a small timid animal which can't be allowed to escape. Russell is one of those rare brilliant people who don't have to live it to get it. ❤
She looks different when she isn't scowling.
The interview with Greta is absolutely delightful! Her giggles are infectious! Nicely done.
And I agree so much with Russell about the snort!! It's delightful and "that's when you know someone's having fun... because you don't want to do that *snort again* !!" His rapport with everyone-probably honed MOST from talking to kids who keep him on his toes more than any dulled adult (even a brilliant one) whose brain has settled into a comfortable spot of adequacy! Kids by nature are digging into anything like a sharp drill going through layer after layer of tree bark then finding the next thing to dig into nonstop, batteries recharging with a giant konking out nightly! All these years of improving his ability to almost keep up with the wit of beautifully sassy clever kiddos made him the best person possible to interview her! This was REALLY a priceless couple of clips we're fortunate to be able to watch!
What an incredible young woman. So nice to see her get to have fun and laugh from the heart
Thank you for making her laugh. Beautiful,
Unfortunately the people in power don't care.
Why should my comments be any less repetitious than the google's offensive and unstoppable ads?
Only one question for UA-cam:
Does anyone really think more frequent and more offensive ads can lead to profit?
@@ShannonJacobs0 ?
What wonderful segments with Greta! Russell has impeccable interviewing skills. He is really very gifted in bringing people's true personalities out.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. Greta is an amazing person. This is the best interview of her I’ve ever seen. I’ve learned so much about her. The only that is I would have loved to see a frog hat. I love frogs, I crochet and have thought about making myself one, even though I’m 76. Greta’s are probably knitted, being from Sweden.
@@AKjane1 I thought that Greta seemed very relaxed with the kids and she really seemed to enjoyed it. She seemed pretty much that way the whole time. I've never seen her like this before and it was really great to see her smile and laugh. I think it's a combo of her being more used to doing interviews and Russell's disarming nature. It was just really great. I particularly enjoyed when that kid said that Russell looked like he could be Greta's father! Poor Russell! Lol
Why so many offensive ads and BS propaganda from UA-cam?
Has the google somehow misplaced all that personal information they collected about me?
No, I think the EVIL google is deliberately trying to offend me with those ads.
Lol, but we never learned what obscenity Russel inadvertently uttered... Also, I would have liked to find out what Greta thought of Russel's impersonation of her! 😄
Why the fuck were the crowd cheering at Biden?
The way that Russell treats Greta is so inspiring to see. He's clearly a person who can make those with anxiety feel comfortable and he's so respectful of her throughout that you can tell she gets to be way more comfortable than she's used to.
It's amazing that she pushes through the anxieties that she feels to stay engaged in this message but it's such a feather in Russell's cap that he can make space for someone like her to be open and feel comfortable.
19:05 what she said there imo is pretty awesome. "I, for some reason, have a platform..." So much humility expressed in those few words. For a teenager to realize and maintain that awareness, despite obtaining global fame and status...
How delightful to hear her laugh. Her message is important, but so is her heart.
greta is genuinely so wholesome! this was my first time watching her in such a casual setting and I definitely enjoyed it... I always thought she was much older but she's just a year older than me... really inspiring. also, great episode Russell xx :)
There is an interview with her on the daily show with Trevor Noah that is a couple of years ago. It’s not as relaxed as this one since it was a couple of years ago, but it’s pretty funny.
@@sarawarlestedt7242 I just watched that interview again and she has really become so much more confident during these years.
greta likely disliked the "newspaper furniture" but she would also likely admit: good use of the papers.
As a 44 year old lady who sometimes laughs so hard she pees a little, I LOVED this interview with Greta. She is phenomenal.
Amazing young lady, so happy to see her laugh like this.
I'm so glad the interviews are back, I really enjoy them!
Yes. I missed them. The show is a pale shadow of itself without the interview. The stand up was okay, but not why I watched.
Greta is a complete delight! Such a wonderful person, funny too! It's so nice to see her showing her sense of humour. Hope for humanity! Thank you, Russell, for making her feel so comfortable.
Just applauded in my living room! What an absolutely wonderful human being Greta is!
So did I. And I live with no one, but I just had to clap. Mental innit. I just love it when people just talk sense, and joke about the non-sense
@@neanda I applauded by myself too, when he told the joke about the Daily Star rumors.
13:32 "How dare you" is just the perfect answer xD
This was probably the funniest episode of this show.
I've constantly been crying with laughter.
Russell Howard was able to present Greta Thunberg as a person and a 19 year old person. She was fun and having fun and absolutely wonderful. I am sure this changed the minds of many viewers. A brilliant interview.
Russell Howard your comedy has got me through some dark times. Thanks for the laughs.
She's amazing. We first met her as a child, now she's a young lady.... when this woman hits 30/35+ she will move mountains. And reflect some of the other comments - so nice to see her just laughing and having fun. Her activism is great, but its great to see her be young for a while.
i agree, but i am also thinking that it seems she is already moving mountains
I love how the kids are starstruck by Greta but don't know/care Russel is famous too. Also he's could easily be her father (23 year difference). Kid have a good eye.
I've never seen a Greta interview before. This was a fun watch, she vibes well with Russell
Greta Thunberg like a reincarnated old soul, deeply too wise for her years, gave me chills when I first heard her in major news confronting world leaders with her steady eveness and cold seriousness. She was a child speaking truthful warnings without fear in omninous tones that for some unknown reason made her credible. It was as if an extraterrestrial had suddenly materialized before the whole world and believably said, your world is about to end.
The young lady still has that steady eveness, still seems maturely far too wise for her years, and seems like an especially rare, deeply wise and conscious individual in the world.
This was a brilliantly pleasant interview.
I remember seeing her on the news for the first time protesting in front of her school. You've come a long way Greta. Beautiful human being.
This is exactly what I need to watch while sick in bed. Thank you!
Get well soon
get well soon 😘
Wish you a quick recovery Jen!
Same! I'm also sick. 🤒 Hope you get better soon. 👍
Wait, if you laugh to do cough or hurt?? Please, get well soon. 🤗
My love for this brave, young woman skyrocketed during this interview. I continue to admire here more and more for what she is trying to do to educate people about how we are negatively changing Earth's characteristics making them counter to the comfort of human beings and other organisms.
Still trying to come up for a different term for "Climate Change" but it's not as easy as it sounds; however, I will keep working on it and let you know when I come up with something.
How about climate catastrophe?
@@Maknassar I had considered that one and appreciate your responding to my comment. It's not bad for sure; however, I'm currently thinking about "Uninhabitable World Level Event" and leave the climate part out. Most humans are egocentric and think that a couple of degrees higher or lower won't affect them directly and this is true; however, it's what those few degrees do to everything else on Earth that is the issue.
If the average temperature goes up two degrees on average and that melts the ice caps (north and south), then some percentage of livable human (and animal) space disappears underwater, then that WILL affect humans negatively unless. of course, they really enjoy swimming and like their skin permanently shiveled.
There is a choice to be made by humanity; either continue down a road to almost sure extinction along with most other species or make efforts to soften our negative influence on the only world we know and develop and adopt cleaner ways to run our lives. The choice seems easy to me; however, I was encouraged to read, study and accept facts and it appears not a great percentage of humans have been encouraged in the same way. SAD!
One of the best (if not the best) interview with the guest in this show... Russell Howard and Greta Thunberg are both hilarious.
I hope these two remain friends to each other, this interview was so wholemome
Laughed so hard at "daughter" 🤣I mean.. it is totally possible with that age difference 😅
I'm an autistic person who doesn't like beans, but the comfort food thing makes so much sense! We kinda get obsessed with that specific food.
What an amazing interview with Greta! So wonderful to see her “being real”, for lack of a better word. Thank you, Greta, for your work, and all the best to you personally!
That interview will probably be in future documentaries. It showed a very light and human side to someone that's always portrayed in the press as being dry and humorless. And Greta came across pretty well, too.
Haha!
@@SofieBjorkheim HA! I see what you did there.
I love Greta even more now. Good to see her casual side. Kudos to Russell for keeping it casual. And the way she giggled all the way was a treat. Such a beautiful soul Greta 💓
Fantastic show! Russell's skill as an interviewer is certainly shown here. Wonderful to see Greta laughing and having fun with him and the kids. And she's got a very infectious giggle!
Why should my comments be any less repetitious than the google's offensive and unstoppable ads?
Only one question for UA-cam:
Does anyone really think more frequent and more offensive ads can lead to profit?
I'm autistic and I do in fact like beans.
me too
Same but I have an autistic friend that can't eat them because of the consistency
Same
😊
I watched this on TV the other night, what made it more enjoyable was seeing Greta laugh. It seems that since she first came to public attention 4 years ago because she was so passionate about such a serious subject it seemed like there was no enjoyment in her life. I'm glad her life is better now that she can smile and laugh publicly.
I always saw her as a typical teenager who has taken the weight of the world on her young shoulders. I am glad to see her laugh and enjoy herself
As a parent I can only think how incredibly proud her parents must be.
As an old heterosexual white cis(?) man (44) with young sons (11,13,16,17) I must say it‘s so important for great people like Greta T. to speak up and make a difference.
Sounds fun here (and I enjoyed it), but good that Great T. does not just do frog heads!
Well done Russell your incredible interview skills really came in handy on more than one occasion. I'm also glad we got to see a more humane side of Greta and what challenges she has to face besides carrying on with her private life. I for one believe that people pushing one agenda will eventually lead to many more people pushing in the opposite way as we are now seeing transpiring before our eyes. One thing for sure is people won't change their ways if it means giving up certain comforts we're now accustomed to or just being able to get by financially. Eventually though the world will get much worse before it gets better and if the struggle for energy eventually leads us to nuclear war well I know which one I'd prefer.
I so enjoyed Greta in this interview! Thank you for allowing this incredible woman to show who she is.
2 brilliant people, really good interview, both world treasures.
Very inspiring interview with Greta - she's "just a kid with facts"
Seeing her in a more casual manner chatting to Russell really puts a "human" spin on things
Love it !
Getting her book NOW!
Love how you can just see how much Russel loves Greta
Unlike British government, Russell actually delivers.
Best episode this series. I like the stand-up comedy, but I really love the interviews.
I honestly can't think of an individual who epitomizes working hope than Greta. She was absolutely amazing with these kids.
Wow, Greta may make frog hats (Love it! Teach me how!), but she has such a mature perspective on life. I know adults, who still don't know how to handle criticism and manage crises - adults who fall apart if someone just looks at them in an unexpected way. We can learn a lot from the way Greta conducts herself.
I love how confident she is too - she gets to the point. I always appreciate someone who is brave enough to state what everyone else is too afraid to say, or even face.
P.S. @Russell, oh my word, 'Dulce et decorum est' is my fav poem too. It's so vivid and brings so many emotions to the surface.
She's an amazing young lady who walks the talk. Her giggles made me laugh out loud and that's a lot in this currently incredibly toxic world. I wish her nothing but the best life has to offer and I really want a Frog Hat now!!! Lots of respect and love Ms Greta!!! 💕💕💕💕💕💕
I’m autistic and love beans too. Food is comfort for many of us and for Greta it’s beans
To the people wondering about the Swedish song, I believe Greta meant his pronunciation was offensive and not the translation. His words means nothing in Swedish. His singing "jaga får, jaga får" however means "chasing sheep, chasing sheep", which is pretty far from the original song "Får jag".
Or "hunting sheep"!
Ahh, that might be it. I've tried so hard to figure out what he said 😂 Even googled different spellings of all the ways he pronounced it 😅
If you translate "får jaga" to english it could also be "(Theresa) May hunting" 😁
Russell Howard you are a national treasure... well done and thank you... Brilliant 😂😁... wonderful interview with Gretta.... incredibly responsible and genuine young woman... thank you for giving her a platform so very well done...if children are our future I hope more children see her as a role model
And this is what an inspiration looks like! What an extraordinary young woman!
Technically Russell at 42 is old enough to be her dad...
Greta is so intense in her commitment it's SO nice and rare to see her laugh and smile and talk about making frog hats! At times she must feel so much pressure to be a role model 24/7 - she can never turn it OFF.
I hope she can find a regular life in her future like any ordinary young woman. I can't imagine the kind of guy (or girl) who could date her and not be overpowered by her presence and intensity. She's amazing.
I never thought about it, but I'm on the spectrum, and doggonit, I love beans!
Me too! But I'm betting most of us also like ice cream.
I liked 🍺
@@lowellthomson1958 Well everyone likes ice cream whether they're on the spectrum or not 😅 But liking beans (just plain beans, not in a dish) isn't something I'd consider common though 😊 However I'm autistic too and I'm not a fan of beans so I can't confirm this stereotype 😁
As an Englishman living in Sweden, I struggle understanding Swedish at times, but its nice to here Greta speak Swedish and understand what was said.
@@BrotherChad Oh I was wondering when one of your type would turn up. I have dyslexia, so some words I miss spell , which is stressful for me at times. But it's so annoying when people like yourself have to be a grammar Nazi. Anyway as I would say in Swedish. Hejdå ha ett fint liv.
There’s a saying “ If you’ve met 1 autistic person then you know 1 autistic person” because everyone is different, it is a wide spectrum which unfortunately there is still a lot we don’t know about the subject.
As someone with both ASD-1 (Aspergers) and ADHD, I can tell you that the social issues come in most frequently when the level of emotional signaling in the brain is arrested. This happens naturally to some degree with spectrum disorders due to slow development of the Pre-frontal Cortex of the brain.
In essence, we're all somewhat more dispassionate than "neurotypical" people, but the amount varies greatly. There are many people on the spectrum you would never label as such from behavior.
When we have dual conditions (or the spectrum symptoms to indicate some crossover) the arrest tends to be more severe, adn the social challenges as a result also. But as a general rule, the benefits of having a less social, less tribal nature are, to my experience of more than fifty years, far greater than the drawbacks.
Having said that, we have to deal with other issues, like low dopamine and the ensuing depression and anxiety, too, so it certainly has its downsides. Generally, if I had to some up the difference, neurotypical people "filter" their thoughts first through their emotional defenses; this exhibits as "bias," or "belief" or "ideology", a need to group with the like-minded for the "strength of numbers," to quell neurochemically derived anxiety, fear of the future unknown.
Autistic people tend to filter their thoughts first through the perspective of comparing and contrasting what is already known, or a desire to know more, because we don't have the surface-level emotional triggers to seek out that tribe.
When an autistic person loses their shit, it's usually because they've felt badly maligned, for irrational reasons. Often, if young, it's because we don't recognize the deep passion neurotypical people hold about (often quite silly) subjects, and that our criticism, or neutrality, and/or lack of support triggers them.
@@lowellthomson1958 just a heads up, the term aspergers was named after a nazi who decided which autistics should be put to work, and which should be killed. It’s been/is getting phased out due to its ableist, horrific roots, and is all autism (autism spectrum disorder) and the spectrum has nothing to do with functioning levels
@@lowellthomson1958 Similar situation here. Each member of my family on the spectrum displays it differently. Some of us are a bit different on short acquaintance, others pass quite well. Either way, it's not easy to navigate a neurotypical world.
I could not have enjoyed this episode more. Thank you, Russell & Greta.
What a wonderful interview 👏🏾
Greta, du gav mig förnyad hopp att fortsätta kämpa trotts alla motgångar. Har varit lite jobbigt sistone med folk som förnekar miljöproblemen vi har. Tack! ❤
Thank Russel for this 🙏🏽
I’m sitting here thinking maybe I’m autistic, so much of what she said about her day and coping.I was like check, check, check, Check!
I have no idea why Greta are so hated by a small slice of the world population, i think she is an inspiration. I can feel the wretch of her parent when she sail across the Atlantic ocean but that single action is an inspiration
Those men hate everyone who isn't exactly like them. And I do mean exactly. If you don't share their politics, or their beliefs on how society should look. They will bully and harrass on- and off-line
Fear for change and the truth I guess. And a lot of men are afraid of women.
She's mainly hated by people who don't believe we need climate change. Especially when she first appeared in the media she was pretty young and its easier for them to dismiss her opinions when she was a kid. It sucks because she's absolutely right and those twats in power just won't admit to it
It's hard to take criticism. And the best defence is a good offence.
Let that sink in …. 🤓🤦🏼♀️ Nerd level: EXPERT
Laughed waaaay too hard at that
Russell is the best PR person ever .What a lovely ,cheeky young women Greta is .Add to that so much passion and insight .keep on fighting luv xx
My favorite part of the week is when the russel Howard hour goes live on UA-cam 🥰
I haven't seen Greta for many years now. I happy to see shes still going strong. Shes such a lovely young woman.
Oh man, I love you, your authenticity, the way you connect with people, strait to the point, and humour (sorry for the faults I possibly made, English is not my native language)
Only ones i can find is straight* humor*
Well done, I'd say.
(If you're on your phone you can use an English keyboard and it'll help correct)
Russell Howard the comedy genius we need during these dark times.
This is one of the greatest interviews of all time, the way you talk about serious stuff while still being the two goofy kids you are. Brilliant, just brilliant.
Greta's laugh is so cute. This interview was priceless!
Russell is such a good interviewer. As someone who's neurodivergent myself, I can't imagine putting myself through all these meetings and interviews like Greta.
Greta is so charming, and smart, and funny. Excited to see what she does in the future.
I like these more formal/informal interviews because you really get to see a more human side to a person out of their regular day to day lives
I really really enjoyed this interview and your time with Greta Thunberg because I have become so used to having her talked about and treated as if she is so serious (and that is definitely warranted) but it is very refreshing to see how she is also just a 19 year old woman who is capable of laughing and having fun and enjoying life with humour. I do not think that i had ever seen her so much as the rounded person she is and not just as the very serious person she has become in this very complex and critical climate crisis we are facing for our planet. I love the show in general but this was a very special treat indeed. Keep up the good work!
She made me cry, and laugh. She gives me hope when I know maybe there is none. Thank you this was lovely. I am in the US and hope is hard to find here.
Greta is great, love that killer smile and silly laugh & snort! "Such passion, such authority, and then frog hats." 🤣
Nice to see Greta smile and laugh
This episode is the best of the series!
This is the most human interview I've seen in a while. Great people
This may have been the finest interview I have ever seen. It was a true conversation unlike many planned, stilted, back-and-forth monologs that we too often see on television. Thanks to you both.
The interview with Greta was hilarious!
Best interview ever - congratulations Russell and Greta - and thank you
Greta seems to have really matured. The interview was delightful.
This is wholesome!! ❤❤❤
Such a brave young woman Greta is. I hope more young people follow her example.
I low-key wanna see the frog hats
I love her, she's awesome!
Thx for speaking about the environmental crisis !! 💚❤️
This was EPIC
It really was
Eating beans (or in my case, peanuts) one by one with a minute between each, is actually a great way to meditate-isch.
Best interview with Greta ever ❤
Great show and absolutely brilliant interview wit Greta!! Thank you so much, Russell. (Totally enjoyed the “grunt” and her laughter is so filled with hope!)
what a fantastic interview !!!! well done Russell and Greta. 🌎🌎🌎

Congrats, Russell...I'm not that old and I didn't wet myself, but I was taking a sip of soda when you said that line and I did a spit-take. XD
I love to see Greta so relaxed. Great interview
I never knew Greta has such a light, fun-loving spirit.
This by far the favorite Russell H episode.
This is a much needed episode. WE NEED MORE ACTION FOR OUR PLANET!!! A lot of people are DYING!!!
Awesome Russell naturally, but special thanks to the audience! I felt so good watching Greta's interview..it could have been awkward but absolutely wasn't. Than you.
If you are reading this comment Russell Howard, I am in love with your jokes. I just stumble upon your youtube channel during the reign of Liz Truss and I found you very intelligently hilarious
Segment with the school kids was brilliant! I'm all full of hope for the future, now!
It’s lovely to see her laugh!😊
