weird week'friends': Louis Theroux reprises his role as the zany journalist sniffing out some of the weird and wacky lifestyles of the US, UK, and Europe. Louis is joined by a special guest each week and the guest gets to decide where they go and what they do. Like travel man but with people instead of places.

Louis is such an interesting talker, he always comes at things from his own little point of view without ever really going full throttle. It's like watching a boxer fighting whilst pulling his punches and it just makes for fascinating conversation.

Been looking forward to this one for so long! Thanks Rich

This is definitely my favourite so far. Louis makes a surprisingly funny interviewee, but you can see he's really in his element getting Richard to open up. I would love to see that documentary. Thanks for putting this up! : D

really a gem of an interview, well payed sir

Wow. Some really interesting insights into both your professions, as well as the fascinating dynamic between two interviewers. I hope he does end up making a documentary about stand-ups because he'd be good at it. (And you'd be a good contributor, Richard, despite your protests to the contrary.)

I have a new favourite episode! Amazing interview.

Thanks for another interesting conversation.

50:05 can watch and watch that moment and the audience reaction. Beautiful!

This was excellent, thanks.

“I’m gonna blame you.” 😂 That is, without doubt the best line in all of the Rhlstp-Rhlstp! Fair play to Louis, that could’ve been a BeeGees moment. Pure class😂

This one´s my new favourite I think. Not as light hearted as the others but all the better and more revealing for it!

I could watch and listen to Louis hour after hour. He is so clever but very self deprecating too. He works so hard and asks all the questions that we would want to ask for ourselves. You get the feeling that he cares about his subjects and always gets involved in their lives.

I wish this had gone on longer... I would love to see himdoing a "When Louis met Boris Johnson...."Would make interesting viewing!!

I would love that documentary about stand ups to happen, Richard has given a first person view of his life in great detail so it would be interesting to see that from an out side perspective.

Fun interview, would have liked to hear more about his time with Adam and Joe, had heard about that before, makes more sense after hearing how funny he is when he's not interviewing others.

So Brilliant 👏love them both .

Fascinating stuff

Louis Theroux could have been a stand-up comedian, the man makes me laugh out loud.

Louis has a great sense of humour! At times when I watch his documentaries when he comes across as seemingly naive and innocent, I can never quite tell if the seemingly genius comedy timing is intentional and the naivety is an act or if it's genuine. Duh. He obviously really knew what he was doing.

@SilentAttackTV

I think, like he said, he just naturally doesn't like being too confrontational, and he works around that by being as non-threatening as possible to get his subjects to open up and reveal things about themselves. If people feel they're under attack they might close themselves off and get defensive. I think once he gains a certain amount of trust he is more comfortable asking serious questions. I agree he has a great sense of humor, though :)

Louis originally wanted to be a comedy writer before he went into journalism instead. And in the early days there was definitely a lot of (intentional) humour in his shows. He seems to have largely moved away from that tone now, but he's still a funny guy.

I don't know how the format usually goes, but in the beginning, it's amusing to see Richard being interviewed instead of the other way round, perhaps it's the Theroux effect?

And now straight to finding this clip of Louis dancing with Adam and Joe.

YESSSSSSS Richard YEESSSSSS Great guest

Louis is like the new David Frost he sort of turns the tables here on the always hilarious Richard.

Louis has been thinking about doing a doc on stand up comedians (Creating, refining and performing new bits) for a while. He spoke to Joe Rogan about it and Rogan shut him down saying that no comedian would agree to be filmed dying on their arse with unfinished material or giving away punchlines for a documentary. Hopefully _something_ gets made.

Very surprised at how funny Louie after seeing a few of his more awkward docs

I feel there's a world of difference between "Childish" and "Child-Like" (which I always felt was Lois' style when he was doing the "Weird Weekends" show : A kind of wide-eyed curious innocence in the face of the people he interviewed various horrific / ridiculous perversities)

It would be good to see Herring interview Lawrence Fox or David Icke - particularly as I think we’ve all friends who don’t publicly align with their views but kind of entertain them. Jerry Sadowitz too.

Loved this but in no way were Weird Weekends pathetic or otherwise!!!!!

funniest one I've seen.

Louis is spot on about the rural public school thing. I should know, I went to one.

If you enjoyed Fallen London, perhaps you may like the game Sunless Sea. A wonderful little game, based on the same universe. Wonderful boys at "try again fail again" Failbetter games. Thank you

Regarding the 'Paco' thing at the beginning. I used to hang out in a bar with a Spanish barmaid (the bar, not me.) And in conversation she did mention that the Spanish nickname/shortform whatever for Frank, was 'Paco.'

Yeah, not funny at all. At the beginning of that segment, Louis visibly shows discomfort at his Richard's play on his series title but carries on. I mean Louis has spent time with the victims of these predators and probably doesn't feel comfortable making light of any of it. Then Louis says he feels responsible in some way. He then opens up quite deeply about how he's been grappling with not being able to detect the predatory behaviour in Savile and help the survivors of the abuse. Richard's response to all of that is to make a flippant "joke" blaming Louis. Richard showed himself to be a tactless interviewer who lacking empathy.

all hail king louis!
