He operates on a completely different plain to most of us. He inhales oxygen but exhales genius. Lines that would take even the smartest, wittiest, funniest, most progressive people minutes to put together; he delivers as if an afterthought. I think he’s actually one of the most under appreciated minds currently operating.
@@GwaiZai o wow I was just reminded when I was younger and unmarried a friend confirmed saying to me you are quite a funny person. 25 years later, going through abuse, divorce, suicide of loved people, hardship ext ...I lost my humor I guess. But I can enjoy someone like Russell.
I love how Russell is so unapologetically himself all the time. He does these interviews on TV and doesn't pander to their pre-written questions and answers, he throws the script out, entertains everyone around and tells the honest truth. We need more people in the world like Russell
Russ exudes the perfect mix of mischief, humour, articulate philosophy without ever being boring...he is so quick witted, profound and clever that he confounds everyone around him with such intensity that they become impotent mutes!
+Jillian Cornelious add to that he is a compassionate vegetarian, not unlike many other comedians, Ricky Gervais, Robin Williams, Joan Rivers, Ellen Degeneres, Steve Martin, "Weird Al" Yankovic & Australia's Dave Hughes......
+greatwhitepriviledge Aloof you vould say not scatterbrained. He is not scatterbrained you are, they are 100% certainly not mute for the reason you have imagined. Quite grating and inane you are welcome to find him but you shouldn't presume so much. Way off the mark.
You put these two geniuses together... Ask them how the weather is and stand back lol. Don't be surprised that somehow they are talking about Pluto and coffee and you laughing your ass off kind of knowing why :). lol
Roberto Benigni, in Italian and in his best years, was in that league too. These guys can improvise and fire jokes at the speed of light, and when they let loose it's amazing to witness. It's also very challenging for colleagues to keep up and not feel upstaged, which is why these characters often are not particularly popular among their peers... For example I'd bet good money that Laura there will never be on a show with Russell ever again.
Captain Jack Sparrow doesn't have anything interesting to say about modern culture & it's skewed moral compass (via it's obsession with wealth,image & money).
@@sarahholland2600 But if the movie Jack SParrow would be here, he would say something interesting about it, in between the drunk fits. I bet ya he would have something interesting to say!
@@glogmat it's sad that people dont realise how basic and simple it is to have proper manners and respect. Because the manner in which you act defines how people are treated by you... and simply having manners of this nature make people feel personally recognised, listened to and spoke to directly and in a way where everyone feels they are being given respectful attention whenever they are speaking or in a conversation, or being spoken about for example. Maybe that's why people feel it's so 'personal' and 'love how respectful he is' - because far too many people have either not been taught proper manners or decided they would refuse to afford their fellow humans proper respect at some point in their lives for whatever reason....
He really goes above and beyond in everything that deals with human connection. Same with audiences, even in interviews and panel shows where audience participation is not a thing, he's always trying to involve them, interact with them, draw attention to them. A very warm person indeed.
Good on them for recognizing that they have an enlightened genius on their show! They were all so playful and fun and didn’t criticize him for being himself. Love it!
Michael Jazz a lot is bleeped out, and listeners always have this "WHOA..teehee" reaction, before they relax. Like they wonder if it is "ok?" before they remember to laugh.
Kit Palmer Yes ,we are an awesome country and we do have fun with this stuff but when people go way way over the top we tend to swing the other way. Brand is improving with age.👍
Russell is both a dream and a nightmare on live TV. Endlessly watchable and wildly unpredictable in all the best ways, where he really shines out performing anyone trying to interview him. A ratings gold mine who would also prefer that people don't watch tell-lie-vision at all.
It is clear to me that he is threatened by Russell’s vibes or energy or confidence or whatever! But it is crystal meth clear... cheesy but i made me laugh 🤷♂️
+Rick Rude yes the way he handle that old model, masterful, he was critized everytime she spoke, he contract acted with loud in your eyes.... that was just lmao, then you dont need to keep up with me, at this stage he already reframed and own her... then he says she have a perfect nose and that she is a light of energy... winning her earth or any possiblity of being perseived as agressive... then just use her prop to make a joke, he is a master at improv comedy , just genius and the way he charms women is just... I dont even know how he is not with some type of supermodel, or some gorgeous girl... he was the one actually to brake up with kery...
@@kcbh24 what the fuck thats supposed to mean? I have a feeling that in just a few years it will be illegal to be a straight man that naturally charms women....

@@wadellz I doubt it honestly. The guy is an incredible improvisation artist. I believe that on his audition for the movie Arthur, he had one of the most spectacular improv auditions of all time, according to the director - I recall Helen Mirren talking about that, you can find it on TH-cam.
@@BrettGrady-vf4kx Absolutely trilled over these allegations aren't you ? scrambling to ever positive comment on here to put him down. Bless you. Clearly absolutely nothing going on in your life.
The end had me belly laughing and crying. I love how he has perfected the art of making people feel comfortable, but at the same time pushes the envelope.
He does write books. The first 2 were autobiographical, 'My Booky Wook' & 'My Booky Wook 2' ...and the latest was titled 'Revolution' which was mostly his philosophical and political ramblings about how the way in which the world is run is a bit off track and what it all could be. I'd recommend reading all 3 of them, he is a ray of light and a beacon of hope and wisdom.
+Coma Toast he also wrote a children's book, a reinterpretation of the pied piper of hamilin with a few fart jokes that was illustrated by Chris riddle and is genuinely beautiful!
I agree. The reason is, and this is why everyone can't help but just sit there in awe, because he is just speaking from a place of truth. When he does this, it speaks to the truth in everyone. So now it feels like he is shining a spotlight in your face and you can't hide behind the image you hold of yourself. He takes you to a place that is more real than where you are currently, it acts like a magnet that you can't help but be drawn to.
His internal conflict where his views differ from Russell's meant that he refused to let himself laugh even though he was clearly enjoying it and knew that Russell's an unstoppable force.
Ok in a chaotic interview where all the other hosts are just going with the flow.... One of them is given a responsibility to make sure to stick to topics and make sure a conversation happens and ends in a smooth way. I guess he was responsible i guess to coordinate the whole interview. Guests like Russell Brand are really hard to control
@@numbers7n what the fuck man... I am not even muslim... And you not only assumed but labeled me as Muslim because i tend to provide a fucking strategy adopted by interviewers. I mean WTF MAN.. if you can't tell the difference then don't fucking comment.

Seen him live and he was 45 minutes late, no one cared 2 mins in as his energy and amazing spontaneous wit just captured the whole arena, amazing person and wish him all the best in his ride through this short life we all try to enjoy.
waleed ali did a really good job responding to the actual messages in russell's words. He was able to understand what he said and separate it from the sensationalism of his expression. it caught him off guard. impressive.
He's done a huge amount for the substance misuse sector and become an absolute advocate for people suffering substance use disorders. Several charities have benefitted from him and in turn hundreds of suffering and recovering addicts. I've been to his cafe for meetings in the past. He talks so much sense these days about criminal justice reform for drug users. He's definitely worth paying attention too these days.
He worked with my cousin and an incredible place in Derby called Jericho House. Two family members got clean at that place. They do incredible work at that place.
Russell never did what most people do while growing up.... lie to themselves until the inner child leaves for good, that's why, even though he doesn't follow protocol, people want to see and hear it instead of being offended. Gotta love him for it
Please note this is a FUNNY GUY A GENTLEMAN AND HUMOUR WAS ALLOWED. THIS IS BEFORE WOKENESS AND PRONOUNS AND WHEN PEOPLE HAD A SENSE OF HUMOUR - AND UNDERSTAND COMEDY AND BANTER !!
I wonder if those women on the panel would they say wow that's shocking and lets hope the due process that must take place NOT in the court of public opinion, but by police and solicitors finds who will the correct verdict. I DON'T hear him getting with any presumption of innocence. JUST a piling on of even more women. Lots of sex jokes taken out of context and its way more than they had on an actor in the U.S. who got 15 years for rape. England's worse with it historical sex crimes unit!
Never a dull moment with brand around. The way he infects people with laughter is really a wonderful gift to those around him. We could all learn from him.
Most news shows, try to make a mockery of him, one way or the other. Russ picks up on me it, and throws it back in their face, everytime. If you don't understand why giving him that, was an insult, then that's why you don't understand him. Although, it is hard to tell, his true intent. He's certainly clever enough, to put on an array of disguises. But, he even speaks of that, and admits that he's...human...and has an ego. Few to no celebs do that. Even people who aren't famous, can't.
I'm afraid for that to work he would have to sedate one half of his personality and mature the other half while standing with his full weight on his comedic compulsion.
- Thank you for the gift, I'll use it however I want to 'cause it's mine now - What an amazing way to say "fuck your 'beauty shallow product'" and at the same time "I'll make you laugh about it so we´ll still be friends" Gotta love this man.
He couldn't call anyone shallow with the amount of effort he puts into his hair and clothes. I don't think it's a fuck you at all. Rather him just having a laugh. It is also very good for Lara Bingle. Great advertising him doing that with the product.
Was just passing by to this this amazing video again... and yeah, having a new perspective now about it, I guess I can take it in a more chilled kinda way, let's have fun with it sort of, after all Russel is all about Love and Kindness all around our communities.
@@Chillimonz Jonathan Winters was like a mentor and father to Robin..he could certainly match his game. Look him up and you will see a bit of him in Robins performances.
@@Chillimonz Robin Williams and Russel Brand were definitely gifted the same light speed, free flowing expression gene, and once they're off and running that train ain't stopping. Craig, as a show host, had to throttle back and match his speed to his guests, so that they didn't feel overwhelmed (or at least, not too overwhelmed, as ladies always like it when the guy leads, with comedy, charisma, and a bit of sexual tension).
+Kevin Charlson not "illuminati", Russell is a member of the Fabian Society, look them up. they're Masons. intent on the gain of power through knowlege, they're a pretty interesting bunch, not "dangerous" as far as i can tell, but secretive all the same. they find the hidden powers of the brain through deep meditation and psychedelic drugs
+Mikail Elchanovanich Not dangerous lol, look where they took Britain in the 70s with stupid socialist/communist leaders. We'll never fully recover from that. I doubt people like Jeramy Corbyn or Jamima Kahn are doing any serious tripping to explore consiousness, sorry but they are most of whats wrong with this world, people pretending to be something they're clearly not. I mean can you imagine Milliband, Brown or Blair tripping out their nuts? Im pretty sure we would have had a lot more interesting speachs lol
BigAlFiGala depends what order you're in, and just like all societies, there's many facets, i wouldn't be surprised if the different divisions of the Fabians focused on different things. just because they're a very tight-nit group doesn't necessarily mean they're all the same
+mm1996 The man is a fraud, he has been well and truly found out back in his home land that is why he is on the other side of the planet. He is a hypocrite Champaign socialist.
Its one year later now but look at the people like Peterson or Harris he talked to on this podcast. There are many many men Russel respects probably way more then Wahlid.
Russell Brand exhudes such extraordinary confidence and free spirit (sometimes too much and he tends to forget he's in a news talk show), witty banter, quick-witted, spontaneous, a towering/commanding/overbearing figure (depends on how you look at it), articulate, charismatic, and such a natural. Wowww.. and Fifi Box is freakin gorgeous.
Thanks. This one passed over my head. I was thinking towards the end of the interview that maybe he was being rude. Usually when he seems rude it's because he's responding to the typical charade with a middle finger.
It's mind boggling how charming and captivating he is. BUT....he's so incredibly genuine. And you can always tell, no matter what he's having a go at, that he's a truly ethical caring honest person. I wouldn't trust a human being who genuinely disliked Russell. Such people do exist. And I'm not keen on being kin to such people. I'll stick with those of us who get Russell and appreciate a human being like him even exists. It makes life incrementally more worth living just knowing he exists in it.
Yeah well said. By far the most important personality trait a person can embody, for me personally to appreciate or respect them, is authenticity. I can't think of anyone in the public eye more authentic than Russell.
The man is just pure un adult rated fun. He will not apologize or worry about nonsense. He says what is needed to be said and we cant help but love him for it. What a man!
What's so impressive is how quickly he can process and articulate without pauses; no, 'uhmms' or 'ya knows' or 'wells' ... only coherent, precise, descriptive dialogue, at bullet speed. It's insane. He has more going on in his brain in 5 minutes than I do all fuckin day. And as if that isn't enough, apparently he has the sexual appetite and energy of a satyromaniac. Oh, and Ms. Perry has implied he's packin'. Talk about having it all ...
I believe his bigger points are thought out ahead of time. Much like a comedian that has a long routine. He does have quick wit and does quite a lot of improv.
Its like a perfect ratio of testosterone and estrogen in harmony with his wit and infinite knowledge delivered in a wave cool calm collected and perfect comedic timing that makes him so intriguing
Interesting how you mention that balance between male and female energy, because that is quintessence underlying element of the world. Each has their advantages and disadvantages but neither would like to admit their flaws and would like to blame the other for the problems in the world. It's a constant power struggle, and that battle can sometimes even reside within the person themselves.
It might seem a bit bad when he puts her tan all over the desk but that is better advertising than she would ever get just randomly giving Russ a gift. He actually did her a favor.
he was smart, and when he realized the girl had a husband now he basically just sideswiped her with spraying all the stuff on the desk and ruining her chance to promote
Good to see a show that knows who they are interviewing and aren't patronizing him or expecting Brand to act "normally". You have to love his passion and energy.

Lmaooooo she bearly was the center of attention russel took it all lmaoo
@@goldenhd9656 Yea , what was that about ? :D
Shed already had her own session earlier by herself - they just brought her back to close out the show with both guests
Then*
Well he's way more interesting to be fair. Better telly.
The Waleed guy seemed to be the only one able to keep up.
His internal conflict where his views differ from Russell's meant that he refused to let himself laugh even though he was clearly enjoying it and knew that Russell's an unstoppable force.
@@lythsian you are so far wrong you're almost right
hm he's an asshole
Ok in a chaotic interview where all the other hosts are just going with the flow.... One of them is given a responsibility to make sure to stick to topics and make sure a conversation happens and ends in a smooth way.
I guess he was responsible i guess to coordinate the whole interview.
Guests like Russell Brand are really hard to control
@@numbers7n what the fuck man... I am not even muslim... And you not only assumed but labeled me as Muslim because i tend to provide a fucking strategy adopted by interviewers.
I mean WTF MAN.. if you can't tell the difference then don't fucking comment. Labelling everyone inappropriate stereotypical bullshit agenda with your tiny brain which cant comprehend the fact that there people other than Muslims
B.c of "recent events".. I somehow found myself going on Brand-interview binge. Currently on vid#4 and loving every quip😂
Super quick and intelligent.
Him and Ricky Gervais both are rare breeds.
Seen him live and he was 45 minutes late, no one cared 2 mins in as his energy and amazing spontaneous wit just captured the whole arena, amazing person and wish him all the best in his ride through this short life we all try to enjoy.
waleed ali did a really good job responding to the actual messages in russell's words. He was able to understand what he said and separate it from the sensationalism of his expression. it caught him off guard. impressive.
which one's that? the Indian looking guy?
@@noahmay7708 yes
its racist if you think someone(however discriminated) any less than a person, i.e. not as good as you. if you cant find the brown guy get eye surgery
@Jasmine timestemp?
Not only that, Russell said that at his next trial he would like Waleed to represent him. High compliment!
He's done a huge amount for the substance misuse sector and become an absolute advocate for people suffering substance use disorders. Several charities have benefitted from him and in turn hundreds of suffering and recovering addicts. I've been to his cafe for meetings in the past. He talks so much sense these days about criminal justice reform for drug users. He's definitely worth paying attention too these days.
He worked with my cousin and an incredible place in Derby called Jericho House. Two family members got clean at that place. They do incredible work at that place.
Love your drugs hey Dave druggo?
russel is a damn quick thinker and so creative in his speech... plus he's just having fun and expressing himself, really inspiring!
i love Russel, i applaud people that are real to themselves,that can swim off stream without care or guilt and still do their thing.
He is not what he seems. See through his forced humor!
+Kevin Charlson his genuine personality wouldn't have gotten far on this show, Masonry aint their thing
EXACTLY
+Kevin Charlson que?
Can't your realise it's an act? It's a well rehearsed persona. He's a standup comedian after all.
I love how he always makes to sure to engage everyone in the conversation. Even the audience.
Russell never did what most people do while growing up.... lie to themselves until the inner child leaves for good, that's why, even though he doesn't follow protocol, people want to see and hear it instead of being offended.
Gotta love him for it
The interviewers were actually being open to what he had to say . Great on them !
That was hands down the funniest, most eloquent show I have ever watched.... just become a huge fan of Russell Brand
You can't argue with this mans brilliance.
Still the best segment ever aired on the Project 🎉
Please note this is a FUNNY GUY A GENTLEMAN AND HUMOUR WAS ALLOWED. THIS IS BEFORE WOKENESS AND PRONOUNS AND WHEN PEOPLE HAD A SENSE OF HUMOUR - AND UNDERSTAND COMEDY AND BANTER !!
dude is such a classic character!
+Redman ain't nothing classic bout Russ :) he is one of a kind
Redman Austin Powers clone
13:37 she ask Russel about taking celibacy, Russell just answers: “what time do you finish work”.
Damn!
1337 lol
Right at the very end she mouths "call me"
She stayed with that till the end. No other question asked.
@@jonnyzero0 Well, hadn't spotted that, sharp observation!
Yeh but she wanted him so badly lol. Look at the way she is staring at him and she even mentioned what time she gets off work aswel lol
RB cracks me up. Back then and now. His wit and intelligence ❤
The REAL crime is that some people are trying to quell the improvisatory and comedic genius of this great man.
Believe Russell totally !!!
I wonder if those women on the panel would they say wow that's shocking and lets hope the due process that must take place NOT in the court of public opinion, but by police and solicitors finds who will the correct verdict. I DON'T hear him getting with any presumption of innocence. JUST a piling on of even more women. Lots of sex jokes taken out of context and its way more than they had on an actor in the U.S. who got 15 years for rape. England's worse with it historical sex crimes unit!
Never a dull moment with brand around. The way he infects people with laughter is really a wonderful gift to those around him. We could all learn from him.
Gotta say I don't watch TV but this was brilliant. Russel Brand is so loud, funny and intelligent. Russel Brand for PM
+Aussibob1 he's not very intelligent. everything he says sounds like things i was saying when i was a confused 15 y/o.
+lostalex77 you are still confused
Dat Huy Richard Le true, but less so.
Most news shows, try to make a mockery of him, one way or the other. Russ picks up on me it, and throws it back in their face, everytime. If you don't understand why giving him that, was an insult, then that's why you don't understand him. Although, it is hard to tell, his true intent. He's certainly clever enough, to put on an array of disguises. But, he even speaks of that, and admits that he's...human...and has an ego. Few to no celebs do that. Even people who aren't famous, can't.
I'm afraid for that to work he would have to sedate one half of his personality and mature the other half while standing with his full weight on his comedic compulsion.
I've watched this interview MANY TIMES, and it STILL cracks me up big time
Still
@@nigelnyoni8265 same
me too
I watch this video twice a year and enjoy it just as much as the first time
Ahh, refreshing!
😃❤️
+Timothy Ⓥ Wise words from a wise man!
+dan taylor No, he meant refreshing. As in its nice to watch Russell bring some light to what would usually be the same monotonous cliche.
+Timothy Ⓥ I am happy to live in a time to witness people like Russell and you!
+dan taylor maybe you should buy some skin moisturizer _ that way your lips may not crack if you smile !!! BD
"you've opened a cafe, where you got recovering drug addicts working there"
"They're unreliable!"
Jeez, he’s like a juggernaut when he gets going! No stopping him in full swing...
His accelerated eloquent deliveries are like opera to my ears, extremely funny and educational in our fractured social connect.Genoius.🤓
- Thank you for the gift, I'll use it however I want to 'cause it's mine now -
What an amazing way to say "fuck your 'beauty shallow product'" and at the same time "I'll make you laugh about it so we´ll still be friends"
Gotta love this man.
He couldn't call anyone shallow with the amount of effort he puts into his hair and clothes.
I don't think it's a fuck you at all. Rather him just having a laugh.
It is also very good for Lara Bingle. Great advertising him doing that with the product.
Was just passing by to this this amazing video again... and yeah, having a new perspective now about it, I guess I can take it in a more chilled kinda way, let's have fun with it sort of, after all Russel is all about Love and Kindness all around our communities.
Manuel Gordillo oiiu
Lol your reading in to his random actions way to much
Manuel Gordillo No, It was a Fuck You to that shallow makeup product.
He's like Robin Williams was. You can't keep up with him. He's brilliant.
+TJ Anderson The only person in an interview I have seen to be able to keep up with Russel, and did keep up with Robin Williams, is Craig Ferguson.
@@Chillimonz craig is very quick too, i would agree with that one.
they are both ENFPs! (mbti)
@@Chillimonz Jonathan Winters was like a mentor and father to Robin..he could certainly match his game. Look him up and you will see a bit of him in Robins performances.
@@Chillimonz Robin Williams and Russel Brand were definitely gifted the same light speed, free flowing expression gene, and once they're off and running that train ain't stopping. Craig, as a show host, had to throttle back and match his speed to his guests, so that they didn't feel overwhelmed (or at least, not too overwhelmed, as ladies always like it when the guy leads, with comedy, charisma, and a bit of sexual tension).
his interviews from 2005/6 are even better
I loved how he killed the product placement at the end .. brilliant 😂
Russell really dose take over every show he is on.
Him and Craig Ferguson was amazing.
***** exactly. Craig Ferguson is the funniest person ever his late night show is my all time fav
Russell really takes overdoses every show he is on
And Howard Sturn does it too.
I adore the bloke. met him and he was lovely.
He's an illuminati hoax man, yuppp
+Kevin Charlson not "illuminati", Russell is a member of the Fabian Society, look them up. they're Masons. intent on the gain of power through knowlege, they're a pretty interesting bunch, not "dangerous" as far as i can tell, but secretive all the same. they find the hidden powers of the brain through deep meditation and psychedelic drugs
+Kevin Charlson sorry, they don't make tinfoil hats in my size.
+Mikail Elchanovanich Not dangerous lol, look where they took Britain in the 70s with stupid socialist/communist leaders. We'll never fully recover from that. I doubt people like Jeramy Corbyn or Jamima Kahn are doing any serious tripping to explore consiousness, sorry but they are most of whats wrong with this world, people pretending to be something they're clearly not. I mean can you imagine Milliband, Brown or Blair tripping out their nuts? Im pretty sure we would have had a lot more interesting speachs lol
BigAlFiGala depends what order you're in, and just like all societies, there's many facets, i wouldn't be surprised if the different divisions of the Fabians focused on different things. just because they're a very tight-nit group doesn't necessarily mean they're all the same
just a pure legend, Russell should have his own Breakfast show and afternoon and night time
Well he has a great podcast.
I try to watch this interview twice a year
How anyone can dislike him is beyond me- unless he is telling them the truth they don't want to hear
+mm1996
I agree completely and I thank you for your insightful comment.
+mm1996 The man is a fraud, he has been well and truly found out back in his home land that is why he is on the other side of the planet. He is a hypocrite Champaign socialist.
+mm1996 His great ideas to save humanity are "collectivism", whats so fantastic about that?
***** Theres far more to it than that.
Wahlid is literally the only guy I've seen that Russell has had some mutual respect for his intellect
Yes Wahlid seems to be the only really intelligent guy there, and one that can keep up with Russel Brand
Sanjoob no that's rasjneesh
he is more intelligent so sees past it but russell can still make him like him by appealing to his intellectual vanity
Its one year later now but look at the people like Peterson or Harris he talked to on this podcast. There are many many men Russel respects probably way more then Wahlid.
Watch Russle and Jordan Peterson, you will have a treat..
This is the best interview ever conducted on Australia television 😂
Russell Brand exhudes such extraordinary confidence and free spirit (sometimes too much and he tends to forget he's in a news talk show), witty banter, quick-witted, spontaneous, a towering/commanding/overbearing figure (depends on how you look at it), articulate, charismatic, and such a natural. Wowww.. and Fifi Box is freakin gorgeous.
The world is full of boredom and banality. It's because people serve themselves.This man doesn't.😅😅😅
Translation: “You didn’t bring me a GIFT, you’re using me to promote your crap. And this is what I do when people do that”..
Thanks. This one passed over my head. I was thinking towards the end of the interview that maybe he was being rude. Usually when he seems rude it's because he's responding to the typical charade with a middle finger.
Don't think it was quite as hostile as that
@@NickHunter He was being passive aggressive not hostile, IMO.
mashallah tbark allah alhamudilalh inshallah better astgfrallah
@@allahm-ast3mnlywlatstbdlny164 whyfigay dovigon't youvigooh govigoh fuviguck yourvigor sevigelf
I saw this like 20 times already. Is just amazing what Russell can do.
Geez, if only all interviews were this much fun and informative.
The best interview in TV history.
"Yes, I lose it every day." That was profound actually
An expressive performance of unbridled genius, wit, enthusiasm, and love, for the ages. Thank You Russell Brand, you are quite a muse.
His ability to break down the structure of a show is hilarious.
I've watched this vid several times over the years but today I watched it for a different reason.
It's mind boggling how charming and captivating he is.
BUT....he's so incredibly genuine. And you can always tell, no matter what he's having a go at, that he's a truly ethical caring honest person.
I wouldn't trust a human being who genuinely disliked Russell. Such people do exist. And I'm not keen on being kin to such people.
I'll stick with those of us who get Russell and appreciate a human being like him even exists. It makes life incrementally more worth living just knowing he exists in it.
Jesus! We'll said!
Russel is awakened normal people and idiots wont understand him their still asleep and not getting any pussy ahahah!
Yeah well said. By far the most important personality trait a person can embody, for me personally to appreciate or respect them, is authenticity. I can't think of anyone in the public eye more authentic than Russell.
again well said
Spot On. He is unashamedly real.
He took the whole panel and the audience in the palm of his hand...what a genius man..!!
I love the fact nobody can handle Russell!!! He makes all the blush!!
The man is just pure un adult rated fun. He will not apologize or worry about nonsense. He says what is needed to be said and we cant help but love him for it. What a man!
“un adult rated”🤣🤣
@@hdog24 you like that :)
Un adult rated 😂🤣😂 the funniest stupidity I've seen all year 😂🤣😂🤣😂
What's so impressive is how quickly he can process and articulate without pauses; no, 'uhmms' or 'ya knows' or 'wells' ... only coherent, precise, descriptive dialogue, at bullet speed. It's insane. He has more going on in his brain in 5 minutes than I do all fuckin day. And as if that isn't enough, apparently he has the sexual appetite and energy of a satyromaniac. Oh, and Ms. Perry has implied he's packin'. Talk about having it all ...
It's called coke...
just kidding (or maybe not), Russel Brand is the closest thing to God I have ever experienced
I believe his bigger points are thought out ahead of time. Much like a comedian that has a long routine. He does have quick wit and does quite a lot of improv.
@@luigiseventyseven To even suggest coke makes you intelligent is just ridiculous. Sorry.
@@keithhinchcliffe5629 it's coke mate, and he's still not funny, my mates in the pub are 10 times funnier than this political correct arsehole
@@deerhunter2218 I doubt your mates are ten times funnier than russell lol he's great
This man can light up a dull room with his humour energy and charisma, he's quick witted
They have never laughed like that in their lives! Great show!
Its like a perfect ratio of testosterone and estrogen in harmony with his wit and infinite knowledge delivered in a wave cool calm collected and perfect comedic timing that makes him so intriguing
Haa I feel the same way
Interesting how you mention that balance between male and female energy, because that is quintessence underlying element of the world. Each has their advantages and disadvantages but neither would like to admit their flaws and would like to blame the other for the problems in the world. It's a constant power struggle, and that battle can sometimes even reside within the person themselves.
the guy has charisma... cant hate that
"I'm confused about everything, I'm still back on what time I'm off work..."
Translation : I'm so down Russell...
DoubleDOwnage fucking excellent .. I didnt get this!!
@@jackjamesw910i care to elaborate on that meaning? Lol
14:33 I mean that face... this is when you understand you're in God mode
@@youngshinobi3420 she brought it back to where he asked "when do you get off work" aka she's down To fuck
Exxxactly . Pun not intentionally intended.
I'm an American. When you realize there are people in the world who are freer than you are.
I’m glad this is in TH-cam bc I’m just now seeing this for the first time...love it.
It might seem a bit bad when he puts her tan all over the desk but that is better advertising than she would ever get just randomly giving Russ a gift. He actually did her a favor.
he was smart, and when he realized the girl had a husband now he basically just sideswiped her with spraying all the stuff on the desk and ruining her chance to promote
@john Williams You think anybody would gives a shit who she was or her product if she didn't end up in a show with Russell?
I thought it was just coz she went you’re really loud in my ear earlier on.
Lara Bingle is absolutely gorgeous, I had never heard of her before just now
I keep coming back to this.. legendry interview.. Love Russell
Good to see a show that knows who they are interviewing and aren't patronizing him or expecting Brand to act "normally". You have to love his passion and energy.
