John Ronson is a virtuoso documentary maker and interviewer. He has a great gift for non-judgmentally giving the subject enough rope to hang himself. As close to objectivity as you can get. The Paisley documentary was genius, but it's hard to find.

[@jackpeng8289]

Never been able to find it on youtube. Nightmare.

[@luke-alex]

This is all in Jon's fantastic book 'Them: Adventures with Extremists'

[@shortmotions]

I read he whole book in two days (I wasn't reading for the entire two days, just two sessions)

[@freakingevilgenius]

These nicknames are not in the book

[@garydarnell3117]

Jesus Christ just let him talk ffs.

[@lynottlives]

everyone’s just trying so hard to be clever and funny while Jon’s actually saying something interesting

[@johnmartinez7440]

To be fair, much as I enjoy his books, it's a comedy panel show - not Storytime with Jon Ronson

[@drparnassus2867]

Is Merton sore that someone else is getting to speak?

[@Arcadiabeckons]

Either that or he sensed the story was going to be neither funny nor interesting...turns out he was right

[@josephparsons7896]

Arcadiabeckons I liked it

[@guntersaxenhammer6526]

He was funny at one time..seems like another lifetime now.

[@cahaloboyle7086]

Jon Ronson made a documentary about this trip called "Dr Paisley, I Presume"
Anyone know where to find it?

[@mauriceupton1474]

🤣

[@Mrsbeatle1968]

Ha ha!

[@jsabbath01]

Fucking Paul Merton making out he's going to sleep through potentially a really interesting anecdote. I honestly can't stand the way he trivializes the show all the time just for cheap laughs. I get it's comedy but c'mon man

[@johnbull9195]

Jon 'The Jew' Ronson
