David Duchovny is like if Harrison Ford enjoyed talking.
Detdriterveljegi 😂
I think Harrison is smarter!
He's certainly drunker.
@@esotericone9101 Dave's pedigree is pretty fuckin Boss.
Hahaha! Excelent comment, sir!
I watched every single episode of the X Files growing up every night they aired and I cannot express in words how great an influence this show was to me. I thank David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson for my lifelong adoration of science fiction. This interview made my night.
Jason Martin true
+heeheemanofHK & douchbag of the internet - Wtf if your problem dude? He said he liked the show not created the god damn universe. Go fuck yourself and drink some hemlock tea while you're at it.
I’m an Xfiles fan as well...which is why the last two seasons are so disappointing. They failed to justify the rebirth with great, relevant, consistent storytelling, don’t you think? Tough time to be a fan. I’m hungry for great Xfiles that doesn’t play the leads for caricatures and sell out laughs.
mind fornication One thing I liked ( maybe the only thing) was realizing that the old Asian man was actually youknowwho. That felt like Xfiles for a second.
Please translate the European name DUCHOVNY and expression DUCH ( ... ovny ) ...
You will be impressed, how this name double fit into X~FILES ... 👍👍👍👍👍👍 Fascinating indeed ... I am sure, that David DUCHOVNY knows both translations for sure ...
Looking slick, madafackaaaaa
im still using the madafackaaaaaaaaa
Thank you
the name of the movie: 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love'
shit lol
I love that in real life, David is the skeptic and Gillian is the believer.
Yeah, and Mulder is so energetic, and Scully calm and level-headed, while Gillian seems to be the wild one and David the mellow one.
a writer? he's the real life Hank Moody! lol
David Duchovny, my all time favourite actor since the first season of X-Files ! ❤️
Oh god i love David Duchovny since i was 11 lol First Time i Saw him on x files i was 11 ans had Big crush 😍 26 years later....i'm still here ❤❤❤
i love duchovny so much he's never let me down from x files to californication
"Male of female?"
"That's correct, yes."
Coos Oorlog lol read this at the same exact time he said it too jokes
So not a non-binary actor then. Really narrows it down.
Guess it wasn't Lady Gaga then...
I'm sure he just meant he directed Gillian in a recent X-Files episode. Relatively recent.
Wait, so he's actually an author and doesn't just play one on Californication? Ok, now I'm getting convinced David Duchovny is who Californication was really based on.
You're darn right he is not only that but I remember long before I ever saw anyting had to do with californication I saw this thing several times some sort of article I think it was in rolling Stone magazine maybe men's health Bay me both cosmopolitan something like that maybe all of them but there was something regarding him being a sex addict also him being the one that's the best at sex in regards to the best actor who's the best at sex something to that occasion that goes to show how long ago I saw this information by remember something somewhere having to do with the best actor who is the best at sex I'm chopping this up somehow but all of a sudden next thing I know when they talked about this guy who's a sex addict is amazing at sex who's in Hollywood and they mentioned David duchovny I would have never thought it until I saw californication
Duh??
Sorry
It read like you had a stroke midway through that my man, easier to say our boy be fuckin'
The real life guy was a German-American writer called Charles Bukowski, who lived in Los Angeles in the 60's and 70's. He was a noted womanizer and wrote a lot about the sleazy underbelly of the city. In 1978 he wrote a novel called Women, which was a semi-autobiography of sorts, and the main character in that is the Closest to Hank in Californication. But David Duchovny is pretty close too.
One of the best recurring guests on the show.
Hank Moody...still killin' it.
"Intellectual discourse and Imagination!" What a concept!
I literally just finished binging Californication for the nth time and I wanted more, then thought about watching some interviews with the cast but remembered they're not at all like their characters so I just went with scrolling the sub box. Lo and behold, David fucking Duchovny at his utmost moodiest releasing a fucking book and fucking cussing. I like it when the Universe gives back.
Saw David -as muso- in Sydney recently. My god that man is just wonderful.
David is a funny bastard I love this guy..
I hate when hosts don't them finish the story. I wanted to hear the rest of the ghost story.
I think that was the end of the story
Apparently Jon's been on an Ellington kick. That's two Duke quotes this episode. Repeating 'Dancers in Love' here, and '[Take The] A Train' earlier.
Fine selections, Mr. Batiste.
Ugh I love David Duchovny so much
They both have excellent banter.
That book sounds like a literature classic! Can't wait to get it..
Jake Andersson read the original by Neil Gaiman. It's called American Gods and is already a hit television series.
Dembai 👍 I will.
He was really fucking with Colbert but I guess that just makes him more real of a person
Maybe read the book before you start suggesting plagiarism based on a brief summary. He did go to Princeton and Yale receiving a masters in Lit. so he's no dummy.
David Duchovny and Stephen Colbert. It´s a Match :)
3:44 when he says "no". Jesus Christ. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I remember liking his character on Twin Peaks....Then X-Files came out. Didn't see him for a while until Hank Fuckin Moody was born. Pretty versatile guy.
_"The Fellate Show"_
_The XXX Files_ 😉
Didn't know Mulder was an author too
He isn't an author, both are actors, lip sync. They had to create a book for him, because it was already content of the prerecorded audio for this show by the mad unpaid spied author. Keeps these overpaid douche bags busy.
😂😂
Sorry, I was just talking to people that liked Cali and Xfiles etc. I know he is European, as am I. So I was just wondering, if that was being a douche?
David is a genius
I met David and Gillian in Vancouver when they were recording files. I loved them Gillian is sooo short and he’s soo tall lol
Wow! Can you share more? When did you meet them? How did you meet them? What did you say? What did they say?
I'm going to quote that last phrase. It's perfect for those that say we shouldn't talk about polemic subjects, specially when it's something they disagree with.
David Duchovny's voice has changed over the years
That handshake was at best "Here Stephen, hold this for me a moment while I do something else."
The new book has the same premise as The Long Dark Tea Time of The Soul by Douglas Adams
His book is more directly inspired by a W.B. Yeats play entitled "Only the Jealousy of Emer" which Duchovny pretty explicitly cites as an inspiration in TV and newspaper interviews. You know, some things happened before you or even Mr. Gaiman were born
Even on 420, I'm not as chill as him.
I know right that's a super bummer
Awesome chemistry 🧪 between them
To be fair that sounds like a really good book
It's like this guy never walks away from the californication set
I am beyond grateful for hearing him perform live today in Bucharest :)
I love you David!
Mason handshake at the end!!!
I think the end of that ghost story got edited out... LOL
Mr DD, it came from your MA English degree from a university. I'm a fan since 30 years so I kept the track of your life. Don't make fun of your son kyed miller if I'm pronouncing his name correctly. Your children are lovely. God bless them both.
4:54 But the question is: Does he want to believe?
Wow he still looks good, he's barely changed since the 90s.
When the guest is infinitely, infinitely(!) cooler than Stephan.
Adoro quest'uomo!
What a weird and nice guy👍🏻
Edit #2: Found it, Dancers in Love by Duke Ellington. Best late night band.
3:03 what is that piano lick? ahh driving me crazy. It was used in a Paul Thomas Anderson movie, I think the Master. Edit #1: I remember the scene now, it's right after Joaquin's character Freddie first does the sort of hypnosis session with Phil Hoffman and they smoke a cigarette. Man that movie is burned in my mind such a beautiful film, makes me think it's the greatest one ever.
Cú Chulainn is the Irish spelling, and it's pronounced as 'Coo Cullen'. He is an ancient Irish mythical figure from pre Christianity, Celtic times. We learn about him and other mythical folklore stories like that in, as you guys say, elementary school. Primary school to us.
Just finished the episode in season 6 of X-Files where he finds out what happened to Samantha and then I find out there's a vid of him on the Late Show, this makes me happy. :D
Sounds like Neil Gaiman’s American Gods
Yeah almost exactly
it is exactly the same premise. wonder if he will do anything different with it.
was about to comment that..
Your comment sounds like My Comment.
I’ve read it already (I was sent it to review on my book site) the similarities are very, very superficial. They both have God’s in. That’s pretty much it.
Cú Chulainn is pronounced Koo Kullen, he was the nephew of a king, he was a warrior and a knight, I don't know that he ever became a king, open to correction for anyone more familier with the story.
He was on paper the nephew of a King but I always considered him more of an ass-kickin' demigod bombing around ancient Ireland with the heads of his enemies tied to his chariot.
I forgot he was demi-god too.
He has the same expressions as Ryan Styles
Duchovny fucking rules.
He is still so HOT!!!
beach tourism does the job.
Thanks
Marky Wahlburg lookin' laid back as fampersand.
HAPPY 58TH BIRTHDAY DAVID DUCHOVNY !!!
It doesn't get cooler than old man Mulder.
I would be lying if I didn't say it's a little disappointing that he doesn't believe in UFO's or Ghosts -- or other strange things in the spirit world - but he does play a very convincing role in the X-files.... :)
His co-star in X Files (Gillian Anderson) was one of the first woman to come out as Transatlantic.
that handshake.... who knows, knows....
The plot of the book he describes with people bringing their gods with them was done by Neil Gaiman 20+ years ago.
The plot of Neil Gaiman book was written in the late 900s.
Or maybe lots of people can have different takes on the same idea?
David is an intellect alpha.
It's pronounced Coo-Cullen Mr Duchovny,
Cuchulain translates directly as "The Hound of Cullan" as the young Setanta killed Cullan's famously ferocious hound with a stone fired from his Hurley at the tender age of seven,and then agreed to stand the duty of the hound until he found another.
Have a read of the legend if you haven't already, its a good yarn,
I'd also recommend On Raven's Wing by Morgan Llywelyn as a great retelling of Cuchulains tale, and the whole of David Gemmell's Rigante cycle as an intro to Celtic myth and Legend(although the Rigante are based more on Highland Scots than Irish Legend-but as Billy Connolly famously put it "Scottish people are just Irish folk who said OVER HERE, WE FOUND SOMEWHERE EVEN MORE COLD AND MISERABLE!).
I'll be reading Miss Subways,
thank you.
Forever Anchovy.
Love the Duchovny!
Love David
Oh Stephen...you asked him if he believes in aliens. Eye roll.
Hey David Duchovny ... it's pronounced [KOO]-[KUL]-[LEN]... also for anyone interested Cu Chulainn means "the hound of Culainn" in Irish.
7:37 david duchovny just blew his own mind
"That's an interesting idea for a book"
"Thank you. It just came to me one day. There I was on my porch, reading some drivel by Neil Gaiman, and I thought to myself: David -- what if... there was a book about immigrants bringing their gods to America. And them still being here, just effing about"
4:30 no, stephen does what any good senator or congressman does, he hires people to do his homework for him. ;P
The actor he's talking about is almost definitely Robin Williams.
David Duchovny: drunk on the late show
Their suits practically match!
Sorry is he trying to pronounce Cú Chulainn? Cos it's pronounced koo-hull-yan and he wasn't a king he was the strongest hero in Ulster and killed the High King's prized wolf-hound when he was a teen late to the feast (the dog was on patrol attacked him and he snapped it's neck) and as an act of penance he abandoned his own name Setanta for the dog's and became Cú Chulainn the hound of Ulster. One of my favourite legends growing up especially since my family is from the same area as he supposedly lived (though I'm sure there's a million other places in Ulster that have that claim).
When name DUCHOVNY is translated into English, that this name in fact goes well hand in hand with David Duchovny's last book. If The name is divided into two names DUCH~ovny and translated in English, than the name DUCH fits well to X~FILES ... 👍👍👍👍👍
But from what language, Slovak?
@@marianetoh6154 ... from Czech ...
... nevertheless, Czech, Slovak, Polish, Russian, Serbian, Slovenian, Croatian, Bulgarian are very similar languages ...
... when somebody speaks slowly for example Polish, Czechs understand 70~80% ...
They dropped that ghost topic abruptly! Probably cut off?
All of this show content is cynical entertainment, sometimes cynical nonsense to embarrass silly actors, by the unpaid spied author mind in Europe. Don't worry, India, Asia, we'll set these hypocrites back to place.
I'm sorry, but I don't give a fuck
Because the time of the interview was about to ran out, and they had to talk about the book promotion which is the main reason why David was there.
@@falkormoonchild4822
" by the unpaid spied author mind in Europe. Don't worry, India, Asia, we'll set these hypocrites back to place."
What does that even mean? It looks like you wrote a string of nonsense there.
"I can't remember a thing..."
' If these two person never screwed together, this is the worst case of sexual 90s Tension in TV history.''
Damn he’s so hot. Can’t wait to see him in february
I like mister Moody , wait....
competition NOOOOOOO collaboration!***
Ultimate Stud.
Two quick witted men.
Mulder is a sharp guy and he knows it but in this chat, Colbert outwitted him
Sounds like Neil Gaiman's American Gods, or the Percy Jackson stuff.
Akenraes Vakreander Urban Fantasy? Akin to Dresden Files too
Miss Subways is Emer, Cú Culainn's wife. Now that's an X-Files truck load of BS. Cú Culainn was a legendary Gaelic warrior, not a king. Nice to see Davy's deep research at work.
GUD GUD also that is not how you pronounce Cu Culainn!!! Mortified for him. It’s pronounced KU - CULL-ANN phonetically
At that age my room was full of ghosts... microscopic, wiggling ghosts... So many ghosts...
Daddy?
Trump will....
😂
15 seems the prime age of "arrested development" to set in. See it around me and within.
Get on stage already...
Or open a parlor: "new massage".
"Who Said..... We Spread Rumors About You...."
wtf is this conversation😂😂
is david wearing the couch cloth? so much blue in the shot
Neil Gaiman had that exact same idea years ago when he wrote American Gods and The Anansi Boys. Come now, mr Duchovny, give credit where credit is due!
I’ve read it already (I was sent it to review on my site) the similarities are very, very superficial. They both have God’s in. That’s pretty much it.
Gaiman didn't originate the concept. There were much older tales of bored gods effing with cultures from around the globe.
Hello, Rabbit Carrot. I'm glad. It just rubbed the wrong way with me, a Neil Gaiman fan, that mr Duchovny presented, or seemed to present, the plot as an original idea of his. I'll certainly have a look at the book when it comes out here.
Actually his book is more directly inspired by a W.B. Yeats play entitled "Only the Jealousy of Emer" which Duchovny pretty explicitly cites as an inspiration in TV and newspaper interviews.
DD never claimed the concept for his own and, as someone above has already stated, Gaiman hardly originated the idea himself! Perhaps instead of jumping to conclusions it might be pertinent to actually read DD’s book and see for yourself that DD’s book is nothing like Gaiman’s and is instead a beautifully written tale worthy of its own praise.
His book sounds a lot like Ameican Gods lol
?????awkward editing around the story about the ghost??? I wanna know what happened
nectarshrub ghost are fucking real unfortunately first hand account
ya. bad part is theyre not ghosts. well, you could call them that but they arent dead people trapped on earth if thats the definition. if disembodied spirit is your def then yes ghost works fine.
The Truth Channel: I understand what yr saying and agree with you. But I would also wonder why a recorded voice would claim to say "help". Deception perhaps from a so-called disembodied spirit?
But then, one would wonder what the purpose was for this deception.
Flowing Water To perpetuate-despite scientific evidence for somatic death-the seeming implication of the First Lie: “You certainly will not die.” (Genesis 3:4)💀=👻
I didn't think there was any awkward editing. Seemed clear to me the audience was laughing because they expected David to answer that his kid was like 5 years old or something, and instead he said 15. Given that Duchovny doesn't believe in the supernatural, it's strange that he didn't get why the audience laughed at that, but maybe he was just protecting his son's honor, and maybe Stephen was also feigning ignorance to do the same.
Cúchulainn was not a king, David - sure and you break my heart
Hmm. Nice concept... That sounds like a Neil Gaiman story. What was that called? Right. American Gods. Not that once an author writes something, it get scratched off a list. There are plenty of comparable stories from prior to Gaiman's take.
OmGOSH he is as hot as always! As is Gillian! Stephen, have her next, if you haven’t already and I missed it!
