He’s essentially become what Bob Holness was to university students in the 90’s. Except Bob Holness never had a rap that went “my money don’t jiggle jiggle, it folds”

I love Louis became he doesn't judge people, that's what makes him so great when he does his documentarys, he's not here to tell them that they're doing things wrong he just trying to understand them.

He looks at things objectively, allowing the viewer to come to their own conclusions with all the facts at hand. Too many journalists these days go in with a bias mindset, and twist things to push their opinions on the viewer, and it's a disgrace to journalism. Even when Louis interviews people clearly in the wrong, who do things he clearly finds distasteful, he allows them to give their side, and asks unbiased questions. That's why he's so good. It's far more interesting to see into the minds of these people, see how they think, and why they do the things they do. It's a perspective that you can't get when you're pushing your views to the forefront.

I'm glad she got to meet him so she knew there were good guys who wouldn't pay for sex or shoot her in the head.

Two exceptional interviewers facing off against each other. But Louis's timid nonconfrontational style allows him to ask such confrontational questions but that no longer seem this way. He gets answers no other person would get. It's exceptional.

I've never heard of or watched Russell but his interviewing style is incredible. Our American talk show hosts could definitely learn a thing or two

@Chronicallywitty

I much prefer British interview shows. The interviewers allow the conversations to go where they want to, they allow the guests to speak without infuriating. I would recommend Grahm Norton as well, it’s more light hearted as well. These comedians do a great job interviewing without having to get kitschy. The only comparable US show I can think of is Hot Ones.

Ditto. He's really rather charming.

By the end of the video, the way that Louis expresses that he, as a journalist, has a duty of care to provide HIS account of the events he's experienced, is nothing short of admirable.

Truly a great man. He has the ability to remain objective, something so rare these days. If there where more journalists like him, rather than people feeding us news and information twisted to suit their own agenda, the world would be a better place. He allows these people to give their own story and thoughts, even the ones who are just terrible people, allowing us to get an idea why they do the things they do.

Richard McEllan yeah, the BBC is completely right wing now, can’t be trusted

Asking whether open relationships can work is like asking if traditional relationships can work. Many traditional relationships end. So you try again. Relationships can be pure hell. Communication is key. Who cares about societal norms or pressures? Do whatever feels right for you and whomever you may be involved with. So long as it's all consenting adults, it's all good.

I’ve never clicked on anything so fast

I would love a podcast type show with russell just talking about all the different topics with guests every week. So easy to listen to and can take a fun or serious turn.

I actually think about Louis's smarmy expressions everytime I fuck up in my life. I just picture him there with me like "is this really what you should have done?", knowing full well that it was a disaster and there's a whole pot of spaghetti on the floor or whatever else

One of the best in the world I'd argue. He's got the rare ability to put his personal views aside and take an objective approach, allowing the viewers to make their own decisions, and giving us a view into why these people thing think, and do the things the way they do. Something that's so rare in journalism, where most just use it to push their own views and twist what others say.
