Great interview, great pace, great questions, great guest. Louis C.K. . I love this man's way of thinking. Just listening to him is like reading a big chapter from a life manual.
I love the way Louis talks and conveys ideas, he doesnt sound phoney or full of himself or like he's trying to make people think he's smart, he just talks like a normal person but with great insight. I tried hearing Daniel Day Lewis talk about acting once, I can't help but tune him out, he's so up his own ass.
Christopher Page Because it would mean that he holds himself to a higher standard than most other people. If he questions and betters himself relentlessly but decides not to put others through the same treatment it would be either that he doesn't care for them or that he figures they can't handle it. However, he does challenge the people that view his comedy just like Carlin, it's part of what makes him so great.
etagged yeah I would say I agree with your logic, but I do realize now that there are plenty of times in which he challenges his viewers or even characters on his show that play loved ones ect. but anyhow I dont think its that he holds himself to a higher standard as much as it may have to do with empathy. And i think most of the great comedians / artists but themselves thru alot of personal aguish and criticism when they put out material.
This dude is so creative it’s insane, I didn’t know he was this in to doing shows like this and was close to quitting comedy, this dude is by far the funniest comedian of all time, he’s the comedians comedian literaly
Do drugs, don't get caught if they're illegal, take chances and make choices that are less reasonable, more and more, agree less, vocally, without shitting yourself, lose family and friends that are only in your life cause you're afraid to face the silence, and of course, never apologize, but never stop learning. Thank nobody, and die as willingly as your able to live. Creativity will flower in you.When all else fails, drive a cab In a decent sized city, and if you want to join a creative orgy always in progress, be homeless. 😀
I love so much that Louis wasn’t ruined by his scandal. Like, he’s touched by it, but he ran with it and was able to make fun of it and be sincere about it. I also love his transition from his first style through his evolution. I don’t know any better re-creation of a talent than ck. He’s just the G.O.A.T. in my mind. Everything and anything comedy can be, Louis is. Just so happy to be around to see him.
@@firstnamelastname-zo5gd I'll meet you halfway there. He fucked up in the past, but was protected from the consequences because he was making other people money. He was going through some pain in his life, was acting out, hurt people, but never had the opportunity to learn from smaller consequences. When he got so big and his life was in a better place, but he was also taking ownership of his production, all of a sudden his past transgressions surface and he gets body slammed. Plus, he actually issues a heartfelt (imho) apology, which gets him in MORE trouble. Had he pulled a normal highroller move and buy them with NDAs and never admit to anything, he'd have come out of it relatively unscathed. Why is each individual treated as a singular deviant but the system that enabled it, and STILL does, is never really taken task??? Why don't the people who enabled and benefited from these individuals ever have to answer for it??? They all turn on their cash cow publicly and then move on with their millions...
Louis has been some sort of role model/hero/something just because he's so good and real in his comedy process. He inspires me to get on stage. Also to just be myself and accept my material.
I remember when Louie came up with the five dollar model, been a customer ever since. The guy that makes me laugh the most selling his craft on the cheap... he's unbelievable. Thank you Louie.
frank bellina They sound like they're pickin up just as much room tone as direct voice. They must b dynamic mics. They're both a little far from them. edit: apparently they're AEA ribbon mics
I woke up to this interview, having woken up earlier, played a Louie clip, dozed off again with auto-play on, and finally woke up again to this great interview randomly recommended by the algorithm.
@@reallivebluescat No, “a Louie clip” was a different LCK clip that caused TH-cam to eventually recommend this one to me, so the first and last “woke up” are referring to the same act of waking up in my admittedly ambiguously worded rambling penned in a barely awake state.
what a genius. honest, loving, self aware and just a fucking good person. please make more children. donate some sperm I don't care just make more Louis please we need them
So, this was edited. In the original version he says something about how much he loves to hate the Aaron Sorkin show Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. The article had verbatim quotes from him, but this interview has zero references to that show at all.
Great podcast with Louis! Not many podcasters manage to have a human conversation with a comedian. Usually it is just a long string of bits and sometimes people just want to see who the person is.
I love buying Louis CK content from his website. I hate it when you see something you want and then find out it's on a different streaming service than the seven you already pay for.
I gotta say, he may be a comedian but that was really good acting. Especially at the end after Parker walks off. And she's obviously no slouch either but that goes without saying. I just saw Lost in Space and she completely made the show.
What's interesting to me is that Bill isn't a great interviewer, yet is able to get great stories and information from his guests. I'm much more drawn to hosts who go toe-to-toe with their interviewees and delve into specifics, but his broad, ineloquent style seems to work. Props.
Mandy Pote LOL nice catch! I'm usually weirdly observant, and notice things like that. That's funny, and I'm sure totally incidental. Same pic is on the DVD cover for the first season of LOUIE.
This was great, Louies my favorite comic. Kinda weird how before the allegations, Rogan spoke as if they were friends. But after the allegations, Rogan would say he didn't really know C.K. 🤔
Those microphones are uncomfortable large. There was a comic named Patrice ONeil who had ac suitcase filled with those that he took to Brazil a few times. Heh
Miss watching LOUIE. Wish Netflix would have enough balls to give him a show. If not, give those girls a show so they can live their comedy dream because I'm curious as to how good they were to start with. I'm sure it'd help them get over being so traumatised. I want to see a reenactment of that night.
It's all important, but yes. Editing is a kind of writing and whoever thinks the job is redundant has absolutely no idea of what audio-visual grammar is.
@faison gache You can shoot all you want and it can be shit footage. Useless celluloid in the can. The editor can make a comedy a horror if cut right, a cinematic magician saving the film. So I don't care what you shoot, doesn't mean anything until the editor organizes it, Albert Einstein. I'll stop wearing tank tops when you dye your white hair, grandpa.
Louis is so good that made this interview interesting even if Bill Simmons sucks. Bill just keep interrupting Louis on nice ideas and then they don't come back so it is lost.
@@jamahlrawls3520 It’s a figure 8 microphone and the pre amp is probably up fairly high, because their would probably be to much of a proximity effect if they were up close
System Shock Loved him on Maron's podcast. Love Maron too; the man, his podcast, and his IFC series. Louis though, he's also fucking hilarious in any and all of his Howard Stern interviews.
at about 28:00 Louie talks about not really liking "comedy" (i think he means like, the stuff we're used to. sitcoms, buddy cop movies etc) and then he mentions Goodfellas and Raging Bull, movies that are obviously not written specifically to be in the comedy genre, as examples of movies that made him laugh the hardest. Made me think of a scene from Goodfellas that I think is one of the funniest of all time: the scene where Tommy's (Joe Pesci's character) mother shows Tommy, Henry, and Jimmy her painting and Tommy talks about it. "I like this painting. Ya got one dog goin one way the other dog goin the other way, and this guy's sayin 'whaddya want from me?' " Fucking kills me every time. NO that's NOT what he's sayin! He's like an old fisherman guy! he's not a wiseguy! Tommy's such a wiseguy that it never occurred to him that some people aren't wiseguys hahaha. Mother (played brilliantly by Martin Scorce's actual mother btw) chimes in: "One's goin east, the other's goin west, so what?" YES!! That is so totally Tommy's mother! Show idea: Joe Pesci Reviews Art. I'd watch the shit outta that
That scene is hilarious. "Whaddya want from me?" Haha Also, how Tommy says we know a guy that looks like him right after they beat that guy up. It shows great insight in the humor gangsters were about.

yes and i give props to this Bill guy, saw a couple of these and he´s always like this. He lets the guy speak and don´t interrump
Yeah, you're so right, A M

Bill Simmons is a big deal in his own right
I came here coz I miss Louis CK.
He’s Back!
Same here
There's a new special you can download on his website. Hardly got media coverage (for obvious reasons) but it's great!
@@gusgrimey1375 sadly i torrented that too lol
Me too! No pun intended
Louie has a really awesome way of being really hard on himself but being so understanding to everyone else around him.
+Christopher Page thats what makes him really good
It's secretly condescending
etagged how so? just curious

I want Louis to do the Joe Rogan podcast at least once.
+jed52 I agree. I'm surprised it hasn't been done already. Maybe some sort of history, haven't read anything negative between the two though.
+jed52
7:08 a hint..
"Joe Rogan young comic, now Joe Rogan"
+nic niczo not sure what you mean, was that a shot at him or?
+nic niczo I think he meant he has a bigger name now
+Dain Smith They should be good. Joe has mentioned that he is a huge Louis C.K. fan.

I gained a lot of respect for Louie after seeing Horace and Pete. A masterpiece.
There’s nobody better than Louie.

Enjoyed every minute of it. Louis is such an awesome guy.
Bill Simmons is a great interviewer.
I like how he isn't trying to kiss ass and blow things up. Two people having a conversation without all the hype from audience.
@@fantizmorelic5585 completely agree. He's really authentic and inquisitive. I like that he questions Louis about his thoughts etc. Just cool to see.
Louis was suggesting Netflix to buy his special before Netflix was buying specials. Then he did the thing on his website
Love Louis CK, great mindset and wisdom. Also I really like this interviewer, he's good at his job.
One of the best interviewers I’ve seen
Fascinating conversation. I love Louie, but this made me a fan of Bill Simmons, what a great interviewer.
Extremely good interview, you can see how real Louie thinks and how smart he is not just in comedy
Louie is a very smart man
Great interview! This guy knows his shit
He's right about characters in many comedies who are not funny, but the writers give them dialogue simply because they're in the show.
Thank you for having this on TH-cam. I’ve been looking for it.
Arguably the best comedian of all time.
AGREED
I wish people saw this side of Louie….I have such a large of respect for him…
I love the steak-house ambience.
YMH got the same vibe
it's more of a cigar lounge
got that A1 sauce simmering like a cigar broth
Bill was great in this. Phenomenal conversationalist. I miss Louis.
They took Louie from us, don’t forget that.
Have you seen his latest special, Liam? "Sincerely"? It's great.
i mean he fuckboyed but he's back sorta now.
@@firstnamelastname-zo5gd jeez...
@@BeyondSideshow i mean did he not fuck up? he paid the price and its cool now but not gonna act lke he didnt
@@firstnamelastname-zo5gd I'll meet you halfway there. He fucked up in the past, but was protected from the consequences because he was making other people money.

He inspires me to get on stage.
Also to just be myself and accept my material.
Im on that samee boat brothaa he inspires alot of people
Hey, any links to some of your material???
Louie is radically honest
I'd like to become famous just to drink that amazing water
I remember when Louie came up with the five dollar model, been a customer ever since. The guy that makes me laugh the most selling his craft on the cheap... he's unbelievable. Thank you Louie.
parts of the guy are so much an enigma and i stay humbled the bastard still makes me laugh till i cry
Excited for his comeback tour! Buying tickets for the Berlin show
respect to the upload and thanks
respect to Louis C.K and this interview is really good.
Those mics make me want to grate cheese.

@@jamahlrawls3520 They’re figure 8
Did he introduce Louis as “Lewis” CK?!
God damn those chairs look comfortable
This is one great podcast, all the way. All kinds of brilliant and interesting.
i think i just watched everything that this crazily normal man ever said, recorded on the internet
Me too
This is the best interview with Louis CK.
This is how his HBO show should look. Not overproduced. Just a conversation. Almost like how Howard Sterns show is.
such a great and insightful interview
This interviewer is so goddamn polite and thoughtful. He’s great.
The Billie Jean King reference to pressure was a nice surprise. RESPECT.
The show is so missed by so many people. Thanks a lot to those comediennes who can't seem to let a guy be great.
I woke up to this interview, having woken up earlier, played a Louie clip, dozed off again with auto-play on, and finally woke up again to this great interview randomly recommended by the algorithm.
You suck, dude. Your comedy is horrible.

It's a podcast... Like he said in the beginning, they will snip some parts of the video for them internets.
forensics, such a great way to look at a failure.
Took me til 50 minutes in to notice there's a picture of him on he wall right behind his head lmao
I like how he can lend themes to inference with structure, but in fragments
Can you explain this in a different way. Im dumb
Goddamn do i miss his presence.
what a generous down-to-earth humanitarian this guy is!!
he lowered his pay that people could afford to see his show.
Bob Kar czbh
Agree. That just shows that his true passion is his work, sharing his work, not money.
16:55
Isn't this man a genius?
+Vaalferatus - that's not a mindset of a genius, as much as of someone who just cares about other people.
@@oodjee i think its both ... he is very smart and he thinks about other people .
What a great guy. He has become a new sorta Carlin figure in my life
Great podcast with Louis!
Not many podcasters manage to have a human conversation with a comedian. Usually it is just a long string of bits and sometimes people just want to see who the person is.
I keep getting distracted by that gash on his forearm. Looks like it must have been a nasty cut.
Why don’t u give him
A big kisss
Since you love him socmuch
Louis is a such a caring person, jesus.
They cancelled him because he decided to cut out the "middle man".
it takes 25 yrs to makes a great comedian.
47:14 How Chris Rock rebranded and got good
50:24 How Louis CK Rebranded and got good
Nice
Sweet

better than any masterclass video, thank you
I love Louis analogy of how losses are scrutinised and wins are much less so. He has a good brain.
27:59 I really enjoyed this part. I always hated these punchline-punchline-punchline shows with fake conversations.
CK and Burr are buddies lowkey
They have the same manager.
@@hunterjenkins11 fuckin liar

He did a much better job than Marc Maron and in both podcasts they essentially got the same information out of CK but CK was more relaxed here.
Haha that’s such a backhanded compliment
That makes him a good interviewer
this is a crazy good interviewer
totally agree that editing is part of the artistic process
Those microphones are really unsettling.
+Dain Smith You see what you want to see.
+TheSonofFrank Why don't they just use condenser microphones? I think those would have sounded better for the interview.
This is the difference between someone who cares about what they are putting out, compared to someone who makes mayonnaise commercials.
lol anyone else see the photo of Louis on the wall behind Louis?
Mandy Pote LOL nice catch! I'm usually weirdly observant, and notice things like that. That's funny, and I'm sure totally incidental. Same pic is on the DVD cover for the first season of LOUIE.

Louis has a special insight on Netflix specials here which is pretty cool
His show was the best and it's sad that it was cut short. It certainly had potential for several more seasons of great entertainment.
Louis himself cut it short, took a break and then made “Horace & Pete”
