“Toxic scum on a stagnant pool” Is actually a review from a food critic that Ramsay got in the 90’s.

that's awesome

It’s amazing the difference between a professional comedic actor and someone who isn’t. Gordon Ramsey talks how we would talk. Steve Carell is always setting up some sort of joke or punchline. It’s truly amazing watching a master work

Setting up punch lines? You think that's what he was doing in this interview? On the contrary! He really took this interview straight and was not trying to make jokes every other line.

@@Checkmate1138 Yeah, it's not until the awkward conversation pieces and jokes start that he starts making his own to diffuse any tension (that always comes with talking about sex suddenly and publicly). But he delivers when it does come around. I think more interestingly is how he turns a mildly awkward segment where Jonathan has little to say to keep Gordan going while he's talking about his wife and Steve just clears the silence by utilizing the topic of "wooing" with food and drawing parallels to his own life.

Every time I see him as his real life self I’m struck by how he is so exceedingly nice and charming. What a fantastic human being. Disarming, self-deprecating, generous with sharing attention and making sure everyone is part of the discussion. And genuinely funny on the spur of the moment. It must be weird for American actors to sit on those UK shows because the format is different and the conversational “guard rails” are in a different place but he seemed totally himself. Brought joy to my morning to see him.

Comedy is harder to pull off and to write. You have to make someone laugh. I always look at Stephen Kings quote: "A tragedy is a tragedy, and at the bottom, all tragedies are stupid.

Any fool with steady hands and a working set of lungs can build up a house of cards and then blow it down, but it takes a genius to make people laugh.”

I used to work in a winery and you'd get stories like those bankers all the time. The reason you finish off with beer is because you want to taste the wine before you get too drunk to do so. You drink the expensive stuff first, then drink the cheap stuff when you can't tell the difference anymore. I cannot count the number of times people talked about having friend over and starting off with, "Oh, hey, try this Chilean wine. It was only $10 and it's great," drinking a few bottles of that, getting drunk, then going to their collection and saying, " I got this this in France 6 years ago for $600, let's try it," and he next day waking up with a hangover, completely unable to remember what the expensive wine had tasted like, and deeply regretting not starting with that one first. I'd hear stories like that several times a week for all the years I worked in a winery, and I didn't even have to deal with customers, I was busy making the wine.

So cute that Steve and Gordon have both been with the same woman for 20 years. Says a lot about a person, especially a celebrity.
