When I was about 11 or 12, I went to his concert the night his parents passed away. He found out right before he was supposed to go on stage. But despite that, he still came out and played an amazing show. Unfortunately, I couldn't meet him after the show. But I am amazed he could actually do the show. It shows how great a performer he is.
I read a quote on wikipedia from him about it (specifically about why he didn't cancel his tour). Apparently continuing to perform was a good distraction from his sorrow. It was 2 hours a night that he couldn't dwell on it because he was too busy.
I love how Al takes common phrases and terms that everyone misuses and points them out. 99.99% of people don't even think about the things they're saying. He seems to have a more literal mind that can recognize incongruencies in things most people take for granted. That's one of the reasons why he's such a great comedy lyricist.
It's great to see Weird Al getting to do these sorts of things. If UHF taught me anything, it's that Weird Al's comedic genius extends beyond his song-spoofs.
a thermos works by having an inner container seperated from the outer housing using a vacuum. it is impossible for any heat to conduct between them because of the lack of matter.
These interviews Al fans have been waiting forever for. Al is so good at making people look like complete idiots and its amazing how well it all fits in.
Omg! I hll people! Yesterday, i went to a weird al concert, and after, i stood behind the bus and met weird al! I shook his hand, took a picture with him, and got his autograph!!! I actually TALKED TO HIM!!!
Okay, I want to start a petition now that Weird Al should make a "Face to Face" interview with Ryan Reynolds but at the end it turns out that it's not fake but real!! 😀
-laughing so much at the part where Megan Fox is basically a cat- Well, watching these face to face videos has been a great form of procrastination. Thank you. It was also really great to see you live at the Puyallup Fair that one year when . . . well, when that happened. I don't know how often you do that or what year it was.
Ah yes fake interviews. Al teases with string, guilts Meg Fox, and then proceeds to mock her acting ability. A great start, I'm subscribing. He truly still is my comedic king.
Up until this show, Al only interviewed musicians (on AL TV and Much Music). It's nice to see him branch out and interview actors now. Who knows who he'll interview next?
I'd definitely say Weird Al made the purple flashlight sidekick joke up; but given Batman's rogue gallery back in his early comic days alone anything was possible in the DC comics.
Denzel Washington should start wearing a shirt that says, "I am not Ryan Reynolds."

Search William Shatner weird al raw nerve
@@fanatical27 hey thanks
Hm in k
Yes, Megan Fox was stunning. Oh the memories......

Yep. The best minds always question the way of things rather than just aloofly accept the status quo.
@@dreamlandnightmare The best minds also just don't state the obvious to boost their ego...

The Megan Fox interview reminded me of when Weird Al was interviewing Avril Lavigne. LOL XD
Do you work for Channel Frederator or Cartoon Hangover?
Sorry, was the question for me? Just asking :)
To answer that. No I don't. I'm still studying animation.. But again, I'm not so sure if that question is directed at me. :)
BREAKING NEWS: Zack Snyder just announced Denzel Washington has been cast as the Purple Flashlight in Batman vs. Superman
I've missed these interviews. Thank you, Nerdist, for bringing them back. :)
"I had been amusing myself with some string that i had found" dear god i would love to know what the context of that quote is
The string dangling bit @6:18 made me bust a gut laughing. Classic “AL-TV” stuff! I can’t wait for more!
"I probably won't be able to do that"
"Yeah, you're probably right."
Awesome. These interviews never get old! Al is the master.
The purple flashlight, make it happen dc
"You don't have to be all..."
*FURIOUS HAND GESTURES*
It's great to see Weird Al getting to do these sorts of things. If UHF taught me anything, it's that Weird Al's comedic genius extends beyond his song-spoofs.
And Weird Al's "Dare to be Stupid" was in the original animated Transformers film from the 80's. It's all come full circle.
You gotta envy Al's career. Over 30 years and still going strong, still looking good, still nailing pop culture and making awesome parodies. And this.
Denzel Washington as the Jon Stewart Green Lantern, it would be awesome.
weird al:and did he give you the business?
megan:yea
weird al:say no more
I love that Al is doing the whole celeb interview video thing again, I loved all of the old interviews aswell.
GOD I MISSED THESE INTERVIEWS. Thanks so much guys. This is amazing.
And then she starred in TMNT.

It's like watching new episodes of AL-TV! Awesome.
So happy to see Al making more of these!
These interviews Al fans have been waiting forever for. Al is so good at making people look like complete idiots and its amazing how well it all fits in.
So glad he is doing this!!! it's why I love The Weird Al Show!
This kills me every time I watch it the Megan Fox one lol
I loved this video. Great job so far Chris. Keep up the good work. I look forward to more of these.
Weird Al used to do "interviews" like this on "Al TV"
Every single Weird Al interview is priceless!
Omg! I hll people! Yesterday, i went to a weird al concert, and after, i stood behind the bus and met weird al! I shook his hand, took a picture with him, and got his autograph!!! I actually TALKED TO HIM!!!
Knowing the real situation Megan was talking about with the child makes the questions here even funnier.
Weird Al Yankovic is absolutely amazing!!
Okay, I want to start a petition now that Weird Al should make a "Face to Face" interview with Ryan Reynolds but at the end it turns out that it's not fake but real!! 😀

The intro already had me rolling...
Need to make more! If more people knew about these you'd have millions of views
Haha, this was awesome! Hilarious :D I had a smirk on my face the entire time, except for when I was laughing out loud!

Gotta love him!! Still super funny, I hope they put up more "face to face".
I used to love these interviews when Al did them on AL TV. Glad to see them back. The Megan Fox one was brilliant.
HE CAN ONLY COMMUNICATE BY WIGGLING HIS NOSTRILS!!!
the purple flashlight! ha!
This is funny stuff, I am so glad he kept on doing these.
Hand picked Megan Fox reactions by Weird Al were classic. Al is the man!
-laughing so much at the part where Megan Fox is basically a cat-
Well, watching these face to face videos has been a great form of procrastination. Thank you. It was also really great to see you live at the Puyallup Fair that one year when . . . well, when that happened. I don't know how often you do that or what year it was.
haha! this is amazing! i want the string! really cool to see more interview videos like this! thanks for posting :D
"I hope to someday see you acting in something that isn't a horrible mindless piece of crap."
Nailed it.
Why would anyone be disappointing when they find out this is edited? That's what makes it funny. (plus how do you NOT know)
Ahahaa I love these I hope he makes more it's good to see he's still the same old weird al
laughed so hard i almost spewed my drink a couple times
Oh man this takes me back to his old interviews like this.
This is brilliant!
Hilarious. Mr. Yankovic, you are my hero.
Drive a stake through his heart!!!!
6:50 love Al's facial expression. lol

“Tron Legacy” 😂
Great! Now I have to google "how does a thermos work"

Fry - "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!"
Jagwest was here love this guy lol
These are some of the most seamless ones ever!
Oh, how I've missed these! (I'm a 29 year fan) Sooo glad to see this!!
Ah yes fake interviews. Al teases with string, guilts Meg Fox, and then proceeds to mock her acting ability. A great start, I'm subscribing. He truly still is my comedic king.
Oh my gosh this seems like Al TV.
WOO!!! I love these hahhaa
The Megan Fox one is HILARIOUS
If I remember right, he did this in the 80's... still funny, love ya AL... still a fan for 30 years.
These "interviews" were some of the best things about Al's old "AL TV" specials.
Lol. Al TV flashbacks.
Dr. D is reborn!!!
@nerdist great job with the show it's great!
Brilliant, simply brilliant!
i lost it at 3:04. so hilarious.
This was awesome!
*wiggles nostrils angrily*
LOL AL... your a genius. ;)
Up until this show, Al only interviewed musicians (on AL TV and Much
Music). It's nice to see him branch out and interview actors now. Who knows who he'll interview next?
HA!!!! she said do you have a nice stomach which is what Michael Bay asked her.
I'd definitely say Weird Al made the purple flashlight sidekick joke up; but given Batman's rogue gallery back in his early comic days alone anything was possible in the DC comics.
God, I love Weird Al.
Al has hacked your intertubes instead of your cable!
This was awesome
Damn, that Megan Fox one got pretty savage right at the end there 😂
