Louis has done some of the best documentaries in modern time. Just something about his lack of hesitation to ask any and all questions, from a pure place.
The lack of hesitation to answer “yes” to the question of whether he feels accomplished is well deserved. I would have been shocked if he said “nope” lol
I don't think Louis is genuine at all actually. He plays he a foolish character to gain trust. And the way he speaks about the people he interviewed is condescending most of the times
I have to say I really did not enjoy him at all and this is the first clip I've seen in years, that was a solid effort with interesting questions. Good on him for working his craft and improving his game
I keep seeing people trying defend Louie by saying “there’s a lot of people attacking Louie in these comments”. So I’m like wait, what? Let me check out what those people are saying. Five minutes of scrolling later, I saw literally one comment negative about Louie, and it was just saying he looks like Ellen DeGeneres 😂
Lately I've been seeing more and more really professional podcasts from Theo with genuinely interesting guests. Podcasts that I've wanted for a long time, which aren't childish or bonkers. Humorous, sure, but definitely not full of edgy man-children. Keep it up!
As a Brit, I class Louis documentary work as important as David Attenborough. He really lifts the lid on the parts of society that we as a people are just too worried to even entertain. He doesnt hesitate with his questions and in doing so, he gets honest answers regardless if it's a good answer or a bad answer.
Love when a guest is straight up honest sharing his inner thoughts of the time hes talking about instead of a guest just trying to put on a show in keeping with his persona, prob. a bit easier for louis, but refreshing all the same.
Louis’s style is simple but effective… let them talk. No deep probing questions. No cheap gotchas. Let the weirdos talk and be weird and they expose themselves. He knows that the people he spends time with are narcissists desperate for attention. And he gives it to them.
Also especially early on he would give the impression he was a bit simple so people would think they were intellectually superior and start explaining themselves to him in that way
Pretty weird seeing so many comments disparaging Louis. He’s one of the most accomplished documentarians of our time, and his work is hugely important. Is this really where we are? Seriously, show some respect y’all
Seriously. These clowns have learned everything they know on the internet and they fully believe they’re 100% right. Being alive at the time he was doing his best shit you know the impact it had.
@@timharper4246wow, didn't take long to degenerate to aggression, that's what I notice while visiting friends in the US, people get offended easily and became sarcastically aggressive. Must be tiring swinging from carm and laid back to being bent out of shape and angry.
Yes absolutely go to theos hometown and interview those crazy people. That would be awesome. I hope Theo have Karl pilkington on some time they're like the English nd british versions of each other.
Louis is so humble and safe-effacing, whilst still being confident in his abilities to connect with and talk to people. One of my favourite doco makers
There's a few southern accents down there, but nothing compared to how many accents there are in the UK. Sean Connery has a British accent, tom hardy has a British accent, paddy pimblet has a British accent. Southern accent are actually not to hard for the British, there's a decent amount of similarities
Louis I love you so much I’ve watched a large portion of your works.. you approach everything you do with open mindedness and empathy.. you try to understand everyone’s point of view or way of life no matter how outlandish.. you never try to push any agenda.. you investigate the subject with a charming British inquisitiveness
This was a painful interview to watch. Louis, when he interviews, has well formulated questions and does a lot of research on the guest. Theo should do a lot more prep.
Louis is the guy that gets answers in places where it’s dangerous to ask questions. So unassuming and seemingly harmless, but genius bubbling underneath.
Tbh as I sit and listen to this, it’s genuinely one of the most intellectual conversations I’ve heard in a v long time, I feel like most of what we see today is bad and forth hatred of each other because of our separating views however here, it seems they start with a topic, define the issue behind the topic and discuss it in an in-depth view, from the inside perspective instead of an outside perspective, this is why I love Louie Theroux, he’s a man who can look beyond the facade, understand someone’s personality and let them bring themselves down infront of the cameras, instead of instigating, which so many interviewers make the mistake of doing. Goading someone into an answer doesn’t validate your point, it just convinces the other side of their belief that you influence information.
I think Louis Theroux's success is due to his vulnerability, his slightly neurotic personality, the viewer wants to protect him from the crazy people he gets involved with. He doesn't come across as brash and certain and is going to lay down the law. He acts ignorant and plays along with the crazies while winking at the viewer and we share in his inside joke.
Playing a little... not the dumb act, exactly, but more like the intentionally naive act helps the subject forget who they're talking to and encourages people expand on their answers. The one where he's talking to a group of young guys at a Philadelphia corner after a shooting. They kind of laugh and roll their eyes at the questions he was asking, but they still answer them. Instead of appearing like a nosey journalist (or even come across like a cop) he just seems like a clueless middle-class foreigner who doesn't understand "their ways". Or the big Hispanic ginger guy who denies being a dealer and keeps saying he pays rent... he gets him and his subordinates to open up and say things they probably wouldn't normally. It's really a clever trick Louis has perfected.
Indeed. He is very disarming and inoffensive showing geniune interest, but he is also brave enough to ask a pointed question now and again, usually on an offbeat moment and his sense of humour (UK spelling!) shines through, too.
I actually thought his Scientology one was not the best. He's got about a dozen documentaries that I like more, for example the Miami Mega Jail, Bodybuilding, the Law and Disorder in Lagos, the City Addicted to Crystal Meth, etc
@@knyght27I found his scientology one a bit too film-like, but I think that may have just been my own expectations colouring it. I was far used to his more documentarian style work on Weird Weekends et al so the stylistic change was jarring. I should probably go back and watch it again to give it a fairer shake.
what stuck in my head about this chat with louis is what he said about people how some people give off a scary vibe, regardless of how their demenour is like that guy calling him 'sir' and acting friendly - which is what it is an 'act'. We can pick up when someone is a bad person regardless of how they are treating us. I recall louis talking about that interview with the neo nazi's and how even though the cameras were there he felt he was in serious danger. I was watching that interview and i remember louis looking really frightened at one point when one guy turned on him and how instantly all the others started to view him as an enemy.
It reminds of the scene in the Fargo TV series where the character Mike Milligan talks about Minnesota nice having this undertone of unfriendliness. It is kind of sinister in way when someone is being overly polite in their speech but their demeanour and tone is anything but friendly.
One of the things I really like about Louis is the way he presents himself very differently from most people who do the kind of interviews he normally does. Most people who do those on scene interviews that part of our society, criminals, hate groups, addicts, etc, have a certain approach, especially these days, where they seem to do their best to fit in with whoever they are talking to and not go against the grain of the scenario. I've seen people go interview a gang or go to Kensington or something like that and all of a sudden they're playing a character different from their normal videos. Different voice, difrerent style of speaking, very passive attitude where they act like they agree with everything being said even though they surely dont at all... Louis on the other hand brings that straightforwardness and somewhat of a childlike innocent to anyone he's talking to, whether its a regular guy or a convicted kiIIer. He doesnt try to people please or fit in, he is always true to himself, and hes never afraid to ask the questions he needs to ask even if they're likely going to get under the person's skin. Theres a certain bravery in that I think a lot of people lack, and it adds to the interviews a lot in my opinion.
I'm actually very impressed by Louis's imitations of dialects! English people are sometimes good at a broad American accent or perhaps an old southern dialect but man, he is quite an impressive fellow.
Louis Theroux was how I got into Joe Rogan's podcast. I was watching a bunch of Louis Theroux videos on UA-cam back in 2014 and his JRE episode popped up in my feed.
Interesting comment about the use of "sir" as a way of being standoffish. After living in France the best part of a decade, I found the use of "vous" rather than "tu" often being used in the same way.
been watching all his stuff with my mum for the last month and it's been really worthwhile, i've been a fan of him since 2009 mainly discovering him after hearing about westbro over the years and wanting to watch his doc about them, led me to watching a lot of his stuff back then, it's been great to revisit all with mum cause she is definitely a fan of him as well now, she's british and tends to like shows with british people so that helps but she also just thinks he's a really pleasant articulate funny person, i'd add that there's also no ego to him, he's humble , his job is interesting, he has great amounts of empathy, he's almost recklessly brave, he's someone i look up to and yeah he should feel accomplished
Well UA-cam has a habit of removing comments so they don't like. Why would someone make a comment saying they dislike this when they know for a fact UA-cam will remove it.
I'm only seeing comments like yours. No comments hating on Louis or defending him from the hate comments. Just comments saying they see people defending him and no actual hate comments.
Man I’m finally getting old enough to see people younger than me corrupt and fully believe they’re right. Louis is a legend. Observatory journalism is the best kind and he was a master.
@@SuperTed. He was giving normal people a glimpse into parts of society we didn't typically get to see. Especially pre youtube. You make it sound like he's Howard Stern parading around a small black man with microcephaly. Not exactly one in the same, no?
@SuperTed Louis' role is to give a platform to fringe groups to get them to open up and reveal the things they might not say when platformed in other ways. His genius is his affability because it gets these people to open up and allows us to examine what they really think. Yeah if you want to put it crudely he is certainly monetising these fringe groups, but he does so in a way that allows us all to understand them better which is beneficial for both the public and those being platformed.
@@billybobthornton9668 the sad thing is those fringe groups was just a forecast for current day because their idealogies is mainstream now. SuperTed probably doesnt like people who broadcast and out people who think like him
I accidentally bought this super chat while being sick, a bit of vomit landed on my phone and it bought the super chat which is non refundable. You better enjoy my $2, Theo. My money don't jiggle jiggle.
This man is a big reason I am intrigued about humans and human behaviour. As a kid, I learnt so much from his documentaries and shows, sitting in front of a computer screen and discovering the world through him.
Never thought I’d see Louis on here but honestly it makes a lot of sense. You both are great. I would love to see more with Louis and maybe have David Farrier?
Enjoyable interview, I especially like the "do you think you are accomplished" question, though my brain got a little stuck and confused about Louis and kaleidoscope!
Louis and the Nazis, the Miami Mega jail episode and the Westboro Baptist Church episodes, some of the most riveting and compelling storytelling and journalism.
I’m always disappointed when I see people generalizing entire generations. I’m sick of people feeding into the age difference division, it feels ignorant.
These 2 are libtard shills just like Joe Rogan, Tim Pool and almost everyone. All about white man bad, Christian bad....But never so much as a peep about Islam, black gang violence, and the Yew know whos. #CensoredAgain
His true superpower is the fact that he's willing to immerse himself in the situations he's reporting on, i say reporting because at heart, he is a journalist
I enjoyed that one too. Everyone remembers the Westboro and the racist people ones but I loved the muscle women one and the one where he was at a brothel. So fascinating.
this is what separates Theo from other Comedy podcasters, he knows how to read the room. others like bobby, santino, can't unplug from being a clown.. but sometimes certain conversations need to be had seriously.
Louis essentially acts as a journotherapist. He employs their impartial listening skills, and allows people to just do their thing. This is said as a compliment, he's an axcellent "fly-on-the-wall"!
He probably does a good job, but the best one can do is to be less biased, I think there is no human being that is unbiased, because knowledge is often not absolute, so how is one to absolutely identify bias in the context of journalism? I think just reduce conflict of interest.
his voice impersonating the klux member from Waco sounds like Adam Sandler in water boy
The guy did have a pretty pronounced speech impediment in the episode
@@veeas11 lol I was gonna say… the actual dude definitely had that strange version of a sort of Cajun accent
I was thinking more the butler in Scary Movie 2
Yep, sounds like Waco alright. Waco is weird as FUCK even by Texas standards
That's how you all sound to us
Louis has done some of the best documentaries in modern time. Just something about his lack of hesitation to ask any and all questions, from a pure place.
It's amazing how being genuine is such a superpower in journalism
I agree completely.

I don't think Louis is genuine at all actually. He plays he a foolish character to gain trust. And the way he speaks about the people he interviewed is condescending most of the times
The best in the business 👌
I'm honestly really proud of how Theo has developed as not just a podcaster, but as an interviewer in general.
I have to say I really did not enjoy him at all and this is the first clip I've seen in years, that was a solid effort with interesting questions. Good on him for working his craft and improving his game
I've seen a couple of clips where you could see the potential. He did a great job in this one tbf
He is utterly out of his depth here
Hes one of the funniest man alive what are you talking about@@markciesluk8750
I like theo, and sometimes I think maybe there's more to him than meets the eye but these sort of exchanges show his limitations in this field I think

Yes hes the David Attenborough for humans.

Pity he doesn't visit the trans lunacy
Love when a guest is straight up honest sharing his inner thoughts of the time hes talking about instead of a guest just trying to put on a show in keeping with his persona, prob. a bit easier for louis, but refreshing all the same.

Apparently he calls it "aggressive listening"
Exposition.
Let them tell you who they are, and believe them when they do.
Also especially early on he would give the impression he was a bit simple so people would think they were intellectually superior and start explaining themselves to him in that way
That is the right way to do it.
Louis doing a Southern accent is hilarious.
Louis who? Brother, that's Bobby Boucher
The cadence is pretty good I thought. Still a riot. He's at like 99 percent one second and 31 percent then next, then 2, then back to 60.
I use to binge watch Louis Theroux Weird Weekends when I was a kid, envious of people who get to watch it for first time
OMG STOP IT, you're making me feel bloody old now.😂🤣🤣🤣
Good times, good times
I used to love watching this guys documentaries. Such a great interviewer that really has a good way of getting people to open up and reveal a lot

Louis Theroux is the king of uncomfortable silences.
It's not a journalist or presenters technique he employs, rather it's just that the numbskull cannot think of a reply.
He did that with Judith Dench
uncomfortable silence?
I think you have a problem if you believe that every second of conversation has to be filled with noise.

These two are gold together. I think Louis should bring Theo along on his next documentary.
Omg what a brilliant idea 😊

How do you watch them? Netflix? HBO? What do you recommend?
Being from mississippi myself ive heard lots of southerners use a fake british accent but ive never heard a british guy try southern lmao
It could use some work
The cast of The Walking Dead has Brits talking in a southern accent. Some did an okay job.
Tom Hardy. Lawless?
It's practically the same, he would sound same as us if he just slowed it down and didn't say the "R"s..
There's a few southern accents down there, but nothing compared to how many accents there are in the UK.

I think Louis Theroux's success is due to his vulnerability, his slightly neurotic personality, the viewer wants to protect him from the crazy people he gets involved with.

The Miami dade county doc may be my favorite of all time. It's insane .
I don't know who he is and I'm not sure what fortnite has to do with this guy
Gen Z here, i had American history X show me the reality’s of the cruel world.
He was in fortnite?
@@ryr5330You had a fictional movie show you the reality? 😂
I love Americans
Louie is really good at doing impressions of the people he’s met !
Lol, how he gently shoots down Theo's hyperbole.
Enjoyable interview, I especially like the "do you think you are accomplished" question, though my brain got a little stuck and confused about Louis and kaleidoscope!
Ha! Me too. I think he meant telescope?
Louis and the Nazis, the Miami Mega jail episode and the Westboro Baptist Church episodes, some of the most riveting and compelling storytelling and journalism.
Truth is always needed but never easy
A lot of brain rot in this comment section and it shows. Glad I wasn’t raised on the internet and learned how to think critically.
I’m always disappointed when I see people generalizing entire generations. I’m sick of people feeding into the age difference division, it feels ignorant.
It's kids mostly on here. Just scroll past them. They literally hate everything
Amen, brother.
Although I do believe that hate fueled, puritanical views kind of predate the advent of the internet.
These 2 are libtard shills just like Joe Rogan, Tim Pool and almost everyone.
All about white man bad, Christian bad....But never so much as a peep about Islam, black gang violence, and the Yew know whos.
#CensoredAgain
Nobody is saying anything in the comments liar
His true superpower is the fact that he's willing to immerse himself in the situations he's reporting on, i say reporting because at heart, he is a journalist
Is this my money don't jiggle jiggle guy
Yeah, it is.
I always thought that was Elon.
Disgraceful that’s what you know him from
This guy is Louis the Legendary, how dare you.
You have 3 braincells
Louis has been a real journalist for a long time.....we need people like him to shine a light on issues that would go under the radar if he didn't.
4:00 "we" have a branch? lol
I thought this too 😅
I didnt know how much i needed Louis doing impressions 👌🤣🤣
Love his little accents 😂
Louis doing impressions of different people has got me so tight and I cant put my figure out why 🤣 I hate it so much lmao
I remember when he did a documentary on husbands/boyfriends of female bodybuilders THAT was very interesting!!
idk why but the way you wrote this cracked me up 😂😂❤ I'll check it out fosho tho
I enjoyed that one too. Everyone remembers the Westboro and the racist people ones but I loved the muscle women one and the one where he was at a brothel. So fascinating.
LEGEND ❤
Is Louis the money don’t jiggle jiggle guy? How’s he both?
Yup, that’s him.
One thing about me - i LOVE LOUIE THEROUX
A lot of Nazis got offended by this
Anyone that doesn't claim my Messiah as the best journalist is literally Hitler
Louis sounds like the waterboy when he does an American accent
This guy has balls. He was a North Philly.
This interview is so intriguing, watching two people that dont conform to the norm talk in this way is nourishing my soul ❤😊
Louis is an honorary member of the Barbarian Brotherhood.
this is what separates Theo from other Comedy podcasters, he knows how to read the room. others like bobby, santino, can't unplug from being a clown.. but sometimes certain conversations need to be had seriously.
Louis is a national hero in the UK 🇬🇧
lol calm down
You think?! I must have missed that meeting 😅
Louis national hero in that part of the Ukkk😂😂😂😂😂😂
For liberal maybe😂
@@FlibDokky 😆 😂 got me there, I'll take it
Everybody wants to be the heroic comment lmao
Mega jail was one of the best
What a treat. Louis Theroux and Theo Von. Could it get any better 😊👍
I've been to Philidelphia, Milwaukee, and Lagos 😂😂😂
Louis essentially acts as a journotherapist. He employs their impartial listening skills, and allows people to just do their thing. This is said as a compliment, he's an axcellent "fly-on-the-wall"!
Louis is one of the last honest unbiased journalists
He’s pretty biased. He’s a far left-wing journalist like all the rest of them.
@@ChrisMusson-kv8ph 🤡
"Unbiased"?! 😅
He probably does a good job, but the best one can do is to be less biased, I think there is no human being that is unbiased, because knowledge is often not absolute, so how is one to absolutely identify bias in the context of journalism? I think just reduce conflict of interest.
Dude is heavily biased look at the trans documentariee hahahaha
Louis's journalism is like a slightly more serious version of Sascha Baron Cohen
