David Cross and the Worst Interview Ever

[AbuseDaForce]

lol i hope no one allows this guy to represent the West Coast. what annoying chode. lmao the part where he lies about doing the girl and then gets caught! too funny

[blackfootkids]

What a butthole.

[vizulefllry]

Gordon Downs... Syndrome.

[aarossell]

Everybody: Anyone mocking Gordon Downs has every right to do so. He embarrassed himself by acting like a fool without any remotely interesting questions. He clearly wanted to hang out with David, and I can't blame him for that, but it was a professional pretense. Yes, it was awkward. Yes, people tend to over-emphasize their hate on Youtube.

[fightingnate]

You guys are such harsh critics. He's not that socially awkward, I don't see what everyone is getting their panties wet about. His social skills are pretty good actually.

[mrslippyfistable]

this is a prearranged joke isnt it?

[Markula4O4O]

2:34 made me face-palm...

Most people, when they need to do the "syllable-finger-nod" with their hands when they talk about a big-word or idea...They basically have no fucking clue what they are talking about...In this guy's case: "This Coachella was the most 'Successful'..one..."

Jeez...

[moonverine]

@Markula4O4O "syllable-finger-nod"? You mean "air-quotes"?

[Markula4O4O]

@moonverine yeah Air-quotes! Anybody doing those other than Dr.Evil is fucking retarded....

well eh, sometimes people can pull it off but this guy definitely is..just ......well..I can't say anything else besides..FAIL

The Economy is "Basically Sound"

[fishinwithguns]

but oh my god this guy is a huge douche...I mean, if I met David Cross I might not know what to say at first because he's fucking awesome but I'm sure I could think of a few pertinent questions that he's probably not answered a thousand times before...but yeah, man, must suck to be Gordon Downs.

[fishinwithguns]

if you guys didn't know this is part of David Cross' amazing DVD "Let America Laugh," which is a comedy DVD but is more about the touring aspect and the ridiculous people he meets (and shitty venues he plays) than it is showing like full live stand-up performances. It's a hilarious and interesting sort of documentary style movie, I suggest anyone buy it, you can probably still stream it on Netflix to see if you'll like it. If you like this you'll love the whole movie. That's all.

[visualkei72]

2:45 - Why am I talking to this guy and why is he calling me homie?

4:03 - Oh okay, please tell me more about these friends of friends of yours.

[NoLifeGamer17]

Why does everyone hate this Gordon guy? He was a tad tipsy, the guy wasn't a douche. From what I saw, DC looked kinda rude and wtf was with that thing at the end? Did he steal something?

[liquorstore888888888]

you ah tteahing me aaahrt liza do you understahnd live do yoo

[emulatestate]

Its set up, look up Gordon Downs, he is a random comedian

[dellitoso]

Please tell me this is real.

[DejectedPanda]

He threw up air quotes around successful even though Coachella actually was fairly successful. I don't think he even knows what quotes around a word are supposed to signify.

[jorgbaits]

this guy thought they were going to leave the interview being best buds

[AxeSwanger]

This is exactly the reason you don't get some retarded street kid to do an interview. David Cross is great no matter what situation.

[pippigladstone]

david cross hasnt been funny in over a decade

[elffrog]

It's a joke. He is also a comedian. They got us all...

[FungusMossGnosis]

This interviewer is unfortunately very typical of the average "journalists" in my parts, writing for alternative weeklies in So. California. They are in Mission Beach here, a hot bed for this type of drunken cretin.

[bricbob1986]

what a stupid deusche, he asked and answered his own stupid questions, david cross is a really funny guy, and he managed to silence him with his awkward behavior. homie! cut your hair, and prepare an interview before you aproach a comedian, and stop talking about the internet, obviously you got info from it, shut up you stupid retard

[ConnDevi88]

I made a rule to never even approach people I admire for an autograph let alone what this guy is doing. In fear of coming off this way.

[ffwoodycooks]

did anyone else notice that this dude actually brought a Mr. Show DVD with him? you can see it on the couch when david is looking at the pictures.

[ffwoodycooks]

"you moved back to atlanta?"

"no, i live in new york."

"oh word? ...hah, i say that a lot after i drink."

"word?"

"no, atlanta."

best part.

[katiebluebird]

"what, did you move back to Atlanta? ...oh, word. I say that a lot after I drink."

"word?"

"haha! no... Atlanta."

golden.

[mw2727]

@katiebluebird

no, thats not even bronze, probably a few steps lower than tin

[MajestaBuck]

This dude is a douche...

[andrewhein]

This is amazing!

[adzug]

this is the party where you dont knowanyone and you end up talkin to this guy and youre thinkin, geesus i cud be home watchin a movie. how do i get out of this.

[Person009]

Parabola

[seanbreeden]

What an idiot. David Cross shouldn't have wasted his time.

[danielkirk1]

What a boring shit interviewER

[Shawnkells]

Transplant San Diegan! Probably from Arizona!

[JStain09]

Man that looks lame...lol david kills!!!

[KaylorMade]

Please God and Baby Jesus: Cut this fools hair, (or at least strike him with lightning) kick him in the ass and give him a job at McDonalds, and please kill all stoners from SoCal... thanks.

[theseanze]

Why would you ask Jesus to kill people? Why does this guy need to be killed? He seems to be kinda empty-headed, but Cross gives him a better reaction than you do. He just let it be awkward and silent because he respects harmless human beings...kind of like a labradors

[halfeatenface]

Cool story bro

[djphatd]

The 2 things I learned from this interviewer

1)Dont do pot

2)Go to college

[YouGrower]

dj,

He was drunk, if he smoked some pot before he wrote those questions they probably would have been more congruent.

and yea,

College is good.

[hotvision]

typical young san diegan dude

[schwarg]

what is this from? i also saw a video of him dealing with an impossibly dumb crowd that wouldn't shut the fuck up and he couldn't do his routine. Think they're both from the same thing

[kennerguy66]

It's from the Let America Laugh dvd. Just behind the scenes tour stuff.

[djphatd]

this is from "Let America Laugh" Cross's DVD

[killustrator]

His dvd "let america laugh"

[mmsayre]

Im shocked at how patient David was with this guy wasting his time. My time is not half as valuable as davids and I would have told this guy to get fucked.

[acrobaticaromatic]

@mmsayre Don't think like that or you'll regret it when you run out of time.

Your time is just as valuable as david cross' time, which is just as valuable as the queen of englands time, which is just as valuable as my little brothers time, which is just as valuable as a homeless guys time, etc etc. Any time that anyone spends on this planet is valuable and MUST be made the most of.

[mmsayre]

@acrobaticaromatic I wish you would talk to the people that do payroll where i work ;)

[acrobaticaromatic]

@mmsayre haha your time isn't all about money. Moeny matters fuck all at the end of the day.

[indieindy]

@mmsayre ree. I think the reason he stays is just to make this goober look like the goober he is. But I totally agree.

[NoLifeGamer17]

@mmsayre Dude chill, why so much hostility?

[TurnUpTheNight1]

God Damn it! Somebody stole my DVD of this. Gordon Downs is such a choad.

[DeanMartin1231]

Gordon Downs-SYNDROM

[myroncope]

hahahaha, those were chris farley questions. "Do you like Coachella? Do you wanna see pictures of me at Coachella? Do you like Terminator?"

[nationalpost00]

crazy

[wushdishmeen]

actually the real problem is that david cross is a pretentious prick who thinks he's better then everyone because he thinks his comedy is "witty" while he tries to make a COOL JOKE about 16th century artists.

check back to 2004 when david cross was on the howard stern show and completely bombed and nobody laughed at anything he said. GARBAGE COMEDIAN.

[Idolcruisefix]

wierd, i would of asked if he's found jesus and if he wears underwear. this was so tabloid chit chat.

[CeilingF4n]

Wow, what a moron. Impressively stupid and not smooth.

[bobos01]

poor david

[tomfrankly]

what was that paper at the end

[theartofnotbeingseen]

i think it was david's cell phone number.

[TheJoe101]

HAHAHAHA I love it when he just looks at the camera incredulously at 2:23

[TomLeykisClips]

best moment of the whole video haha

[jihadJackson]

that is very much one of the funniest things i have ever seen

[HowDaddyIsDoing]

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

[F33bs]

This is a hilarious documentary.

[cgarneth]

Clearly this guy didn't know how to conduct an interview and wasn't prepared.

[timoth88]

WTF that interview looks like he just crawled out of a cave. Fucking troll-man.

[Benx64445]

Gordon Downs, Sociopath, LLC

[MarioSpeedWagon]

..........ahhhhhhh i hate these uncomfortable situations, cant even watch them.

[weatherboxlisp]

Oh shit! This is pathetic. I feel a bit sorry for this guy tbh, he's obviously a bit insecure. He totally lets slide his opportunity. Then again, don't pull a man like David cross aside and waste his time if you don't have anything interesting to say. This is hard to watch.

[Julietjeske]

This is painful.

[standupjack]

this is the worst interview i've ever seen and this guy is a complete douchebag and joke of a journalist.

[joeymod135]

What was that piece of paper ?

[budthesmoke85]

information and questions he wanted to ask i'm guessing

[jawnniedarko]

david said it was his cellphone haha

[Sirham]

this is ruff.

[djphatd]

Holy crap this guys a fucking dick, haha I rememeber this from the Let America Laugh DVD

[frankzeppelin]

While I'm sure he's had worse interviews, this was up there. Honestly, who gets drunk for an interview? And all those bad jokes, that flippant backtalk. What a dipshit.

[WFSF777]

This is painful. Done watching.

[lollygager3664]

The interviewer is a mumbling shit.

If you can't take the heat...
