Part of the joke is that elites truly do believe we ordinary people are this dense. That's why Cohen is able to con so many into these interviews without them realizing it's pretend.
@@justatiger6268Not always. There are dense people ordinary or not. He was nice enough to sit through the interview. I know a lot of ordinary people who treat him like a bag of crap and not at least humour the Ali G ideas.

"Don't be high when you're buying and selling stocks." - Charles Schultz Director of the Office of Management and Budget, 1965-1968 Chairperson of the Council of Economic Advisers, 1977-1981
Can you imagine buying a house? Once everything was said and done with all the applicable taxes, transfer fees, closing costs, etc... the cost comes out to something like $400,501.37 , and he be just like "one sec' aht I knows me's got dat bill. It be somewhere on me round 'ere. $400,501.34 ... 35... 51... 57... Where'd I put it?"
Ali G's portrayal of the simple mind is sublime. The way he gets stuck every step of the way of the guest trying to set up a hypothetical is just perfect. Ali G is a goldmine and this interview is one of the best!
Ahmed Abdelmaksoud Na I don't think so really - I mean it is easy to play stupid because you don't have to know anything, but you can't pretend to be smart, you have to be smart.
@@wighto73 Exactly, I definitely feel the Monty Python like feel, but Ali G is a comedy that is so spontaneous and genuine. I'm very impressed coming from a more modern age comedy where talk shows are mostly scripted
I like how he uses (seemingly) random numbers when talking about the specific bills he'd use, and then he couldn't produce a random number when it came to the PIN.
He doesn't need a random number for a PIN. Ali is looking for the very best PIN. The correct answer is that it's the last 4 digits of your phone number backwards.
Jai Khemani Right, libertarians win the presidency ALL THE TIME. To single out Democrats as foolish when that moronic pathological liar elected by REPUBLICANS is in the White House is no better.
I've noticed something watching these interviews, what I see as the good, the bad, and the clever. The interviewees I respect are the ones who try to lead Ali g to see for himself the logic flaws in his (deliberately misled) arguments. These people go WITH the line of logic. Dr schultze here patiently leads Ali to think through his own suggestions. The alternative, are the people who RESIST his logic or, even worse, resist him as a person. For example, Virginia wood uses the 'offended' card. Andy runey refuses him based on poor English. Tony benn is the best interviewee I've seen because he not only flaws Ali's logic but LEVERAGES it to empower the image of the english people. And all with dignity and good humour. That's RESPECK.
tobo86 You'd have to be a moron not to see it's a joke after Cohen uttered his first two sentences. And you'd than have to be a massive old hag to get mad about being pranked.
I think it's often just a culture clash. To Americans, this alien-like man could well be a weird 'British' thing, and even if you suspect it as a hoax, you still take a reputation-damaging risk in calling shenanigans. It's more the wind-up that interests me, because that is precisely cohen's trap - to reveal your prejudices.
Yes you nailed it perfectly. There’s definitely 3 levels to dealing with Ali, 1; be offended and triggered by him which is what we all really want, 2; be confused and try to reason with him or even potentially sniff him out which is less entertaining; or finally, 3; use his rhetoric to ram down his throat the concept that it is wastes like him that are bringing down the country which only Tony Benn has ever actually succeeded in doing. Admittedly Sachs is not actually a waste at all and hoodwinked Tony as good as he ever hoodwinked anyone, but the passion for wiping out scumbags knows no bounds to some people; Bennett was not going to take any chances..
I’ve went back and watched these Ali G interviews as a grown man, and they just get better with time. A lot of things just went over my head in my young stoner days. The interviews are just genius
I love how Schultz went into another stock scenario of someone making toys, but this time it being his friend, and Ali G full of curiosity bit into believing again. That was too perfect. Couldn't have written it better.
One of the few interviewees who manages to make it through without losing patience and actually gave Ali G good advice. Pretty commendable, especially since he ain’t even a junglist.
When he says he was high on skunk from the subject of trading stocks it’s like a great jazz musician entering magical improvising moment. You know it’s part written, part coming from the right time and right elements given. This is why Sacha is on another level compares to them stand up comedians who use the same jokes over and over again even with the same deliverances.
This shit needs saving for eternity as people like this are never going to go along with this sort of madness that Ali G brought ever again... Just brilliance by SBC.
+Hobbes Tiger It doesn't. Scrapping the penny makes cents, which is why some countries have already done it. It costs more to produce them than they're worth.
+Hobbes Tiger so? They make it $5.99 because it makes the customer think the product is cheaper. If a $5.99 bill was made producers would end up making the product cost $5.98 to circumvent
I hope he brings Ali G back every now and again. A world this shitty needs this every now and again. Easily his best character. Good to have breaks from it, but I hope he never stops doing it.
Wow this guy has pretty good patience, I mean I know he's in on it but he plays the part really well. The best ali g moments are when his guests know how to talk to him the right way.
The economist is not in on it. I don't think you understand, this is not like your typical 'fake'/scripted american candid camera or reality show. Sachas tv network sets up the interviews claiming it as an interview that will be broadcast as an educational video to lower-income british youth. The setup starts from Sashas network tricking these celebrities, from Ron Paul to Buzz Aldrin.
Keep in mind that it‘s heavily cut. The interview probably dragged on for half an hour or more. With mostly boring or simple questions, lulling the interviewee into a false sense of seriousness. And we only get a cut of the most ridiculous moments, which are probably just few in-between.
Hahaha I am watching this in a computer lab and I am having a hard time control my laughter whereas everyone else around me is serious and busy in solving mathetical programs.

Funniest Ali G sketch ever!! Doctor Shultz just makes me laugh sooooo much. Ali G's red tracksuit is great & his $ sign necklace is genius bearing in mind who is spoofing!
