    There was no way this interview wasn't going to be lit. Loved to see how much admiration these guys had for one another. Felt like Mero was meeting one of his personal heroes.

      I know! It was awesome to see how much Mero truly appreciates Jeff Bridges and how much of a fan he is of his work. Also, Jeff Bridges is such a calm, wise, and kind person. I could hear him talk for hours

    Just when I thought Desus & Mero couldn't top their previous interviews, they get Jeff Bridges on and he
    1. Shares a cancer story we can all relate to and
    2. spontaneously harmonizes "That's (just like) your opinion, man" with Mero.
    This show deserves ALL the Emmy's.

    Jeff Bridges is a real one. I really hate that people like him are getting older and will soon no longer be with us and it's just really weird to think that the next people coming up are UA-camrs and tiktok people and just boggles my mind

      Those UA-cam and tiktokers are only relevant to people that are like them. Bridges, Denzel and others are iconic for actual works of art they've done...not self recorded videos of antics. True substance comes from thoughtful actions ...not pranks and random shit for views
