The fact that he asked “are you happy?” Back to Josh and also took time to thank the chefs after the meal really speaks well about this young man’s upbringing.
Is it me or is Josh a severely underrated top tier interviewer? He makes it more like a causal conversation that gets deeper over time. I noticed most people he interviews relax into it like they're talking to their best friend. Iv'e never seen anyone better at getting into someones vibe.

i actually gained a lot of respect for Ludwig here, i have never been a huge fan of his online persona, but here watching him totally down to earth and just talking freely, yea great guy
I have been watching him for quite a while now, i like his humor and online persona. I can understand if that is not your taste, but he has quite a few types of videos where you see his (i think) true self come out like in this video.

@mcd08 in my opinion, remembering those little things and how good of a guy he must've been is just as good as remembering his voice, or something that most people commonly remember
Ludwig was a great guest, but I feel like the part that hit me hardest was at the end when he flipped the question on Josh "What about you? Are you happy?" And Josh said "I have plans to." That was real, man. ❤
He very clearly saw Josh as an equal them both being creators rather than the face of an interview for positive PR. This is the most neutral ground this show has seen and it may be me being a stream Andy, but I REALLY hope they bring on more streamers.🙏💕
Josh's reply to the happy question was a good, honest answer. I really like when "it's complicated" isn't said as "I don't know", it's a breath of fresh air, in a way.
Ludwig's introspection and self awareness is a quality that very few content creators have. I feel like its far and few between to find content creators with a more genuine persona like ludwig's. I quite enjoy these bits of him answering questions in a serious manner because its insightful on the things someone in that position is experiencing.
I absolutely love seeing Ludwig dropping the streamer persona in this episode. Him talking about the life and death of the people around him genuinely made me tear up.
I genuinely broke down into sobbing because of how closely I related with his experiences surrounding death, especially with the "being thrown in the deep end at a young age" thing. God, I did NOT expect that coming into watching this
@@Spaced0ut000 Why would you bring this under a positive comment?

@@Spaced0ut000 he has never ever been supportive of what atrioc did and has only condemned it completely. he’s been supportive of the actions after in which atrioc displayed real and tangible remorse and it’s between him and QT, not you.
Ludwig is such a nice, sensitive guy. His thoughts about the sunsets actually are so relatable I often think like him when I look at the Moon or when I visit some ancient historical places. He radiates warm old soul energy, Lud is a good man.
You almost wouldn’t even know he openly supports an abuser who paid and distributed ai corn of his own girlfriend and friends and still supports him! Just men supporting horrible men like always!
Not the collab I expected but the guest we NEEDED. I love everything Ludwig stands for and how his mind works, It's hella admirable. I'm glad we have most of this guy's values, ideas and personality summed up in a vid. Obviously it's impossible to encapsulate everything about a person in any form, but I feel like this video allows us to get a decent overview of this legend.
Ludwig was the first to turn the question around to josh, and Josh was the first person not to answer with a yes. Coolest moment of the episode for me, and Josh if you read this I believe in you big dawg
I thought long if I should comment on his vein... I would never comment on their body for most other guests, but I know that Ludwig would find it kind of funny if people comment on the vein
I'm glad I'm a fan of Ludwig, he has always struck me as a genuine and mature person. I feel like I've unconsciously picked up on his way of thinking and going through life through watching his videos,especially mogul mail and I have come to a very comfortable place in my life. It has helped me bond with my younger brother too as we watch his videos all the time when I go back home during college holidays. This episode was an amazing watch, the host had a very comforting presence and casualness to him and the episode gave me a lot of food for thought. Much love
I just lost my grandfather, and even though it was already a few weeks ago, it still feels incredibly fresh. I wasn't able to be there, no one was, it was sudden. I haven't seen him since may, and its been tearing me up. While other family have been having a hard time with it, I feel like I'm the only one who is still really struggling with it. Me and him were incredibly close, and I'm kind of at a loss right now in life. There was a lot I wanted to still do with him. I've been having trouble kind of getting through it and understanding it while not necessarily having someone to bounce off, as there really isn't anyone who was as close to him that I can easily talk to other than my father, though he sometimes has trouble talking in general. Seeing Ludwig talk about his fathers death, and simply watching sunsets and wanting to settle down and just kind of live in the background really resonated with me. I've been trying to think of ways to hold on to the memories I had with him, and have been anxious about the future, especially right before watching the video. Its late at night and I just feel dead inside, as I have since the day it happened. Hearing someone talk about what I'm going through currently helps though. Weirdly allowed me to step back and think about that, even though the world seems so messed up right now, there will always be those moments where we can slow down and remember our past and the good that came from it. IDK. There are just so many things I'm going to miss, and I'm afraid of one day losing, but I'm at least glad that they happened. Though I absolutely hate that it has happened, I'm at least glad that it happened now, and not earlier. With modern technology, even though he never really used it, I still have a plethora of photos, videos, voicemails, and so many other things to remember him for as long as possible. Its hard, but I know he would want me to keep going and not let his death stop me from achieving what I want in life. Its just hurts though.
I really love how out of all the interviewer channels out there, Mythical Kitchen by far outclasses them even if they're mainly food content creators. This series always leaves a sensation that not only are you being interviewed, but you're also having a deep and lively conversation at a genuine family dinner. Josh's charisma, the MK research team's dedication to even dig up ultraniche info or create questions that allows the interviewees to enthusiastically answer. And last but not the least, the gorgeously presented, non half-assed, scrumptuous food ready to be digged in. Food really allows us people to bond and talk with one another with smiles on our faces.
Agreed, I almost think it’s better than hot ones because last meals feels more informal and more intimate, hot ones still has the “we are journalists interviewing celebrities” feel.
@@jacobbartlett331 This! No offense to Hot Ones (they're really doing their job really well), but it feels too synthetic, restricted, and soulless. The gimmick of torturing guests with hot sauces doesn't outweigh the part of its boring personality and shallow info-gathering.
@@TurtlesC4nFlyYep I was watching and everytime a new episode of Last Meals dropped I was hoping it was him! I was so pumped when I saw this pop up at work lol
I loved the last few minutes. I feel Josh's response to the "Are you happy?" question on a personal level. It's complicated, it's changing, but I plan on being happy. Loved the episode, huge fan of Ludwig's. Let's live a good life, guys.
I lost my mom when I was 8. Ludwig talking about the things you forget is the first time I cried because of missing my mom for over 10 years. This whole interview was brilliant, I respect him more now, before I just thought that he was a bro type.
29:00 hit like a truck. My god. I never thought about it like this. When somebody dies, we eventually forget what they smelled like, looked like, sounded like... (unless you get a whiff of their smell for example) but what you never forget, is who they were. What they did, how they acted... quirks, mannerisms, etc... A person truly is what is inside them, and not outside.
I remember my great gran smelt of lavender and she told stories, I was a little too young to understand, to my mum She had a bunch of purple floral things and a really short fridge I was really proud I could reach the top of I last saw her when I was 7 she had a nice laugh I think and was a big gossip Update this really got me in the feels I’m getting a little tattoo of her favourite flower
these thoughts always get me at cemeteries. All we see are stones, but they represent whole universes of people... all of them laughed, got scared, had favorite things, memories... all that's left is a stone
I’m a big fan of Ludwig. And mythical kitchen. This is one of the best episodes of last meal. You can tell Lud and Josh are fans of eachother and that translates for the show.
My mom used to smile a certain way, a lot of my memories of her are from after she was diagnosed with Huntington's, but as it progressed she stopped being able to control how hard she'd smile so one of my most prominent memories of her later years was a big goofy smile. Whenever I see that smile in pictures or whenever I see someone else make a similar smile I just lose myself in a mix of grief and nostalgia. I'm glad in a way that I didn't repress those feelings completely, even if it's hard.
I did not know about this channel before Ludwig talked about it and I have not watched a video before this one. And honestly, what a shame that is. Great channel, great energy between the two of you and very deep topics. Love it and will stick around!
@@OctoMatoe even at its peak, melee as an esport was never "that popular". it was popular if you were already a nerd/followed gaming, but the vast majority of people would have no idea that the melee community even existed.
@@OctoMatoe100% with you. the biggest watched esport was a league tourney, and that did 6.4 million viewers. college football games do around that number consistently, esports will never be that popular in the grand scheme of sports in general and idk why people try to convince themselves it will be
I have never watched one of the last meal episodes and I am fighting back tears right now when they’re talking about their fathers; this is so sweet and amazing. Seeing the side of both of them is just making me so emotional right now, you both are amazing people and your dad’s would be proud.💕
been watching Lud for 4/5 years but recently, for some reason, i've been getting more and more into his content and would consider him my favorite youtuber/streamer, we're always used to watch his live "persona" being goofy and entertaining so it's always really nice to see this more genuine, real side, it even got me emotional at some point, it was a really nice and lovely chat to hear ❤ gotta love Ludwig, parasocially
This was great. I think Lud is very funny but it is also great when he gets serious about stuff because he adds a lot of insight into the things he says and has a very good approach to how he views things. BTW, "What if you said the channel right" was wild. Wasn't expecting it and it made me laugh so hard.
Thai video is so wholesome and brought up memories of people I loved you past away, seeing how others got through and turned out, gives me hope for a better more caring future.
as someone who also lost their dad at 10 years old, hearing someone that I look up to speak on such similar experiences and have so much emotional maturity means so much. thank you mythical for giving me this video
Lud has been my favourite internet guy for years but somehow this interview made me an even bigger fan. Such an emotionally intelligent and well spoken person. Love seeing this side of him.
Love chef Josh. Have admired Ludwig from afar. Being apart of the dead dad's club myself and in a totally different way. after Ludwigs talk of being in a mindset of "no matter what it'll work out" almost felt guilty "doing well" for myself after the pain that death has caused. You guys have touched my heart, made me cry, and filled me with an immense amount of inspiration. I love my dad and I love you guys. Thankyou
@@Wilbssshe doesn't want a chain though. He wants to retire, use his saving to open a neighborhood bakery with his girlfriend, and serve his community and live in obscurity. No mogul moves dude, just the simple life
@@cameronroberts5461 My mom has physical health problems, including with her heart, and one time when I was like 7 or 8 I heard her "screaming in pain" while I was up late playing on my nintendo instead of sleeping, and just bolted down to my parents room to help her however I could. Kinda funny in retrospect
I really believe that all of the things that have brought Ludwig fame will pale in comparison to the things he's yet to achieve because he's so down to earth and kind hearted. Watching his streams for years it's easy to forget that that his narcissism is a persona and that he's a top tier human.
Their talk about their fathers got me so emotional, I'm so sorry you had to go through that at such young ages 🥺❤ Amazing conversation overall with a really natural flow, very pleasant watch!
a slime last meal would kill, but idk how unhinged it'd be? i feel like slime gets to a really introspective place sometimes and has a lot of wisdom about death i'd wanna hear
This is the first time I’ve watched this show and I am thoroughly impressed with how well done it is. The questions are perfectly executed. Nothing was too quick or too deep too soon. It was very natural and a beautiful way to bring a human presence back to someone that to some people has become an actor in his own life.
il aurait pu dire «c’est super/génial» ou «c’est kiffant» je comprends qu'il ne parle pas le français couramment, mais je le trouve surprenant qu'il n'essaye pas de s'améliorer depuis plusieurs années
@@SpaceC4se I feel like he probably knows those words/phrases, but was trying to translate "that's fire" while still conveying the slang meaning of "that's great". He just doesn't know if they say "that's fire" in France.
My opinion of Ludwig went up a lot; he showed genuine wisdom and thoughtfulness here and also knows when to not be so serious. He's able to spread happiness and vibes so easily, it's no question why he's so successful and has so many followers, +respect Also it's sweet that there's multiple dishes from QT here
I love these interviews so much, because the guests are people that we've watched for years in many different settings, but when they're talking and eating with Josh, it feels like the closest we can get to how they are on a regular basis. Like, they aren't having to amp up the energy, or act a certain way, they're just being themselves.
I lost both parents, my mother a few months ago, and this Last meals really resonates with me. It’s scary realizing you’ll forget what they smell like, what their voice was.
Oooo if we got Ludwig, I'd love to see Sir Mr Chris Affable Abroad in Japan, Sunday Times Best seller, Daimyo of Otsu, personal friend of King Charles of Great Britain, and Emperor Naruhito of the Empire of Japan, Number one consumer of Famichiki in the world - appear on the show
Id definitely want to see chris on this channel, it'll be like watching an uncle pop off about their life stories or problems Like uncles in a Kopitiam (traditional coffee shop; in Singapore for me specifically) chatting
I've got to say, I know very little about this guy but I thought he was just kind of a streamer bro. The two videos I've seen of him before this, and this one, have really turned me around. I find I relate to him a lot and he is very thoughtful. What a wonderful surprise.

I really love how out of all the interviewer channels out there, Mythical Kitchen by far outclasses them even if they're mainly food content creators. This series always leaves a sensation that not only are you being interviewed, but you're also having a deep and lively conversation at a genuine family dinner.
Josh's charisma, the MK research team's dedication to even dig up ultraniche info or create questions that allows the interviewees to enthusiastically answer. And last but not the least, the gorgeously presented, non half-assed, scrumptuous food ready to be digged in.
Food really allows us people to bond and talk with one another with smiles on our faces.
Agreed, I almost think it’s better than hot ones because last meals feels more informal and more intimate, hot ones still has the “we are journalists interviewing celebrities” feel.
Nardwuar
@@jacobbartlett331 This!
No offense to Hot Ones (they're really doing their job really well), but it feels too synthetic, restricted, and soulless.
The gimmick of torturing guests with hot sauces doesn't outweigh the part of its boring personality and shallow info-gathering.
@@stroopyy Nardwuar has the deep cuts, but he lacks the emotional depth of a Last Meal interview
Lud might have been the last person I expected to see on this show but I have no complaints LMAO
I only knew because he talked about it in one of his streams, otherwise I would have been as surprised as you, haha!
Same, I was like, "LUDwig?!"
Certainly no complaints on my behalf
He tweeted to them during a stream and then they responded to him and they were like, "lets do it"
@@TurtlesC4nFlyYep I was watching and everytime a new episode of Last Meals dropped I was hoping it was him! I was so pumped when I saw this pop up at work lol
This gets us closer to having Ludwig on Smosh dont win mario party
oh please I'd love that so much!!
or any amount of the yard doing don't win omg
The yard boys (probably not Slime, he might be a little too out there lmao) on a TNTL would go so hard
Oh yeah 😂 i would love to see that
HOLY THIS IS SUCH A GOOD IDEA
I loved the last few minutes. I feel Josh's response to the "Are you happy?" question on a personal level. It's complicated, it's changing, but I plan on being happy. Loved the episode, huge fan of Ludwig's.
Let's live a good life, guys.
I lost my mom when I was 8. Ludwig talking about the things you forget is the first time I cried because of missing my mom for over 10 years. This whole interview was brilliant, I respect him more now, before I just thought that he was a bro type.
Trust me he doesn't get enough credit because people mostly know him of funny short clips. He's insanely intelligent and caring
He’s a huge theatre kid lol
29:00 hit like a truck. My god. I never thought about it like this. When somebody dies, we eventually forget what they smelled like, looked like, sounded like... (unless you get a whiff of their smell for example) but what you never forget, is who they were. What they did, how they acted... quirks, mannerisms, etc... A person truly is what is inside them, and not outside.
I remember my great gran smelt of lavender and she told stories, I was a little too young to understand, to my mum
She had a bunch of purple floral things and a really short fridge I was really proud I could reach the top of
I last saw her when I was 7 she had a nice laugh I think and was a big gossip
Update this really got me in the feels I’m getting a little tattoo of her favourite flower
these thoughts always get me at cemeteries. All we see are stones, but they represent whole universes of people... all of them laughed, got scared, had favorite things, memories... all that's left is a stone
I’m a big fan of Ludwig. And mythical kitchen. This is one of the best episodes of last meal. You can tell Lud and Josh are fans of eachother and that translates for the show.
Ludwig picking sushi for the cook-off so that Trevor makes one of his favorite foods is genius 😌
He also trained with a master sushi chef for a day lol
somehow I don’t think Ludwig knows this information 😂
@@goode_bagTrevor is still probably gonna destroy him tho. He’s possibly got the best culinary resume at the Mythical Kitchen.
My mom used to smile a certain way, a lot of my memories of her are from after she was diagnosed with Huntington's, but as it progressed she stopped being able to control how hard she'd smile so one of my most prominent memories of her later years was a big goofy smile. Whenever I see that smile in pictures or whenever I see someone else make a similar smile I just lose myself in a mix of grief and nostalgia. I'm glad in a way that I didn't repress those feelings completely, even if it's hard.
Why did this interview make me cry for multiple different reasons? Top notch.
Nah for real
Yeah same it was a good one.
Josh is legitimately one of the best interviewers of all time, he always seems so authentic. He actually cares so much. Everytime
I have no complaints, even though Lud was the last person I anticipated to see on this event.
I have no complaints, even though Lud was the last person I anticipated to see on this event. LMAO
I did not know about this channel before Ludwig talked about it and I have not watched a video before this one. And honestly, what a shame that is. Great channel, great energy between the two of you and very deep topics. Love it and will stick around!
Welcome! You've got so many good videos to watch, especially Last Meals.
It’s inspiring seeing someone come from a small community like melee and make such a splash. He still supports the scene to this day, great guy.
Was it small? Like peak melee was one of the biggest esport
@@OctoMatoe it kinda was considering it was very local and intimate, most people within the scene knew each other etc
@@OctoMatoe even at its peak, melee as an esport was never "that popular". it was popular if you were already a nerd/followed gaming, but the vast majority of people would have no idea that the melee community even existed.
@@litapd311 if we are talking about the vast majority of people, all esports are not known. Even more back then.
@@OctoMatoe100% with
you. the biggest watched esport was a league tourney, and that did 6.4 million viewers. college football games do around that number consistently, esports will never be that popular in the grand scheme of sports in general and idk why people try to convince themselves it will be
Thought Trevor was there to actually make that Ludwig's last meal for a second
ludwig and mythical kitchen are my fav channels rn it's like christmas
2:07 This is how the story goes 🗣🔥
might be my favourite last meal this episode felt so natural , the energy between you two is genuine
I think Ludwig and Josh couldn't be more of a perfect match. They're similar in a lot more ways than I thought. Especially their personalities.
I definitely think Josh is gonna be playing pickup basketball with them now. Would be sick if they had him on The Yard too.
The fact about the "My Brother Slam is Dead" is some Nardwuar level research.
I have never watched one of the last meal episodes and I am fighting back tears right now when they’re talking about their fathers; this is so sweet and amazing. Seeing the side of both of them is just making me so emotional right now, you both are amazing people and your dad’s would be proud.💕
what a great episode. So glad MK started this series. by far my favorite thing they do!
I like the energy between these two, I'd def watch more collabs between them. Make it happen!
been watching Lud for 4/5 years but recently, for some reason, i've been getting more and more into his content and would consider him my favorite youtuber/streamer, we're always used to watch his live "persona" being goofy and entertaining so it's always really nice to see this more genuine, real side, it even got me emotional at some point, it was a really nice and lovely chat to hear ❤ gotta love Ludwig, parasocially
his interview with Dr. K from a while ago is really good too!!!
@@destiny-ph5gk i remember watching luds video! but should rewatch cause it was long ago i feel
This was great. I think Lud is very funny but it is also great when he gets serious about stuff because he adds a lot of insight into the things he says and has a very good approach to how he views things. BTW, "What if you said the channel right" was wild. Wasn't expecting it and it made me laugh so hard.
truly so glad to have this to decompress with today :) thanks guys
Mogul Mail being Mythical was not expected.
Is calling Lud Mogul Mail some kind of meme?
@@explosiveejaculate6484 yes but dont disrespect mogul mail like that. ludwig is abhorrent
@ I get it now
I don't watch Ludwig often but hearing him talk about his dad was very sweet. He also seems to have a good head on his shoulders.
I hope Aiden somehow catches heat this episode
Thai video is so wholesome and brought up memories of people I loved you past away, seeing how others got through and turned out, gives me hope for a better more caring future.
as someone who also lost their dad at 10 years old, hearing someone that I look up to speak on such similar experiences and have so much emotional maturity means so much. thank you mythical for giving me this video
I had the exact same experience. Hearing him talk about starting to forget what his dad’s voice sounded like made me choke up
0:22 Your'e Ludwig Ahgren - we have to know!
Very good video. He may act goofy but he’s really whole hearted. Much respect.
Lud has been my favourite internet guy for years but somehow this interview made me an even bigger fan. Such an emotionally intelligent and well spoken person. Love seeing this side of him.
Lud is honestly such a sweetheart
Love chef Josh. Have admired Ludwig from afar. Being apart of the dead dad's club myself and in a totally different way. after Ludwigs talk of being in a mindset of "no matter what it'll work out" almost felt guilty "doing well" for myself after the pain that death has caused. You guys have touched my heart, made me cry, and filled me with an immense amount of inspiration. I love my dad and I love you guys. Thankyou
A show with both Tom Hanks and Ludwig is a banger
Also gorgonzola Ramsay
Happy to see two sides of my TH-cam fyp collabed
Dude just wants to bake bread for the people, I didn't know anything about him but I love him as a brother already
If he really wanted to bake bread he'd be doing it bruh - man has enough dough to start a chain of bakeries
@@Wilbsss Why rush though? He's still doing big things, let him have it.
@@Wilbssshe doesn't want a chain though. He wants to retire, use his saving to open a neighborhood bakery with his girlfriend, and serve his community and live in obscurity. No mogul moves dude, just the simple life
Like 2 friends talking and vibing, best type of chemistry!!
Great vid!!👍👍👍💫💫
Its always hilarious when parents try and hide stuff from their kids like they're teenagers sneaking around
Worse when they forget you are there and start shaking the walls.
@@cameronroberts5461 My mom has physical health problems, including with her heart, and one time when I was like 7 or 8 I heard her "screaming in pain" while I was up late playing on my nintendo instead of sleeping, and just bolted down to my parents room to help her however I could. Kinda funny in retrospect
... did anyone else realize that Last Meal got onto the level of Hot Ones for engaging questions and interesting formats? SO good, this show is...
Hot Ones is getting old. Personal questions may be different each time, but the formula stays the same and rather boring.
Ludwig's appearance on Smosh Don't Win Mario Party is getting closer thanks to this.
I really believe that all of the things that have brought Ludwig fame will pale in comparison to the things he's yet to achieve because he's so down to earth and kind hearted. Watching his streams for years it's easy to forget that that his narcissism is a persona and that he's a top tier human.
Their talk about their fathers got me so emotional, I'm so sorry you had to go through that at such young ages 🥺❤
Amazing conversation overall with a really natural flow, very pleasant watch!
It's his last meal because he's going to take back what's ours and he's not expecting to make it back
I think this episode helped me as a person, thank you.
josh genuinely might be the best interviewer ever
Josh is like the best combination between Nardwuar and Sean (Hot Ones). Love it!
True
God can you imagine a Slime version? It would be SO UNHINGED
i need this!!!
I would sell a kidney to see that 🤣
9 cold factor courses
a slime last meal would kill, but idk how unhinged it'd be? i feel like slime gets to a really introspective place sometimes and has a lot of wisdom about death i'd wanna hear
He'd be electric
"I have too much value in a number I have no control in"
great quote for many scenarios.
This is the first time I’ve watched this show and I am thoroughly impressed with how well done it is. The questions are perfectly executed. Nothing was too quick or too deep too soon. It was very natural and a beautiful way to bring a human presence back to someone that to some people has become an actor in his own life.
Imma say it. QT is so lucky. He’s so sweet.
Not to mention smokin’ hot
@@theplusman5171 respectfully 🤭😮💨
They're both so lucky. He always sounds so proud and supportive of her, it's so precious
35:49 for anyone curious, that's technically correct but does not convey the same meaning, it's a very litteral translation to "that's hot"
il aurait pu dire «c’est super/génial» ou «c’est kiffant» je comprends qu'il ne parle pas le français couramment, mais je le trouve surprenant qu'il n'essaye pas de s'améliorer depuis plusieurs années
@@SpaceC4se I feel like he probably knows those words/phrases, but was trying to translate "that's fire" while still conveying the slang meaning of "that's great". He just doesn't know if they say "that's fire" in France.
Josh is becoming Nardwuar 2.0
Nardwuar but he's not weirdly menacing about it
Sean Evans is 2.0. Josh is Narduar Digivolved.
My opinion of Ludwig went up a lot; he showed genuine wisdom and thoughtfulness here and also knows when to not be so serious.
He's able to spread happiness and vibes so easily, it's no question why he's so successful and has so many followers, +respect
Also it's sweet that there's multiple dishes from QT here
So glad to see Ludwig on here! I wrote on the mythical census that I wanted to see Ludwig on this show, so I’m glad to see him on here!
I am so pleasantly surprised by this one. Freaking love Ludwig.
Why? He's an idiot.
Based comment! ♥
I love these interviews so much, because the guests are people that we've watched for years in many different settings, but when they're talking and eating with Josh, it feels like the closest we can get to how they are on a regular basis. Like, they aren't having to amp up the energy, or act a certain way, they're just being themselves.
They may have cooked Ludwig the meals, but he cooked the episode 🔥
Brawl stars mentioned
For a while, I believed Trevor was there to prepare Ludwig's final meal.
I lost both parents, my mother a few months ago, and this Last meals really resonates with me. It’s scary realizing you’ll forget what they smell like, what their voice was.
I was waiting for this!!! I'm glad it came so fast after Ludwig talked on stream about wanting to be on the show
less than a minute in and Last Meals is already channeling their inner Nardwuar
Lud is too charming, he can't keep getting away with this
Honestly Ludwig has such a down to earth, grounded and wise mindset. It always impresses me.
LMAOOO 15:38 I ALSO got denied from the jet program lmfao that destroyed all dreams I had of teaching english as a second language 😂
Lmao I got denied too 😅
Oooo if we got Ludwig, I'd love to see Sir Mr Chris Affable Abroad in Japan, Sunday Times Best seller, Daimyo of Otsu, personal friend of King Charles of Great Britain, and Emperor Naruhito of the Empire of Japan, Number one consumer of Famichiki in the world - appear on the show
And then a monkey sounds pretty good after Chris
Ook
Id definitely want to see chris on this channel, it'll be like watching an uncle pop off about their life stories or problems
Like uncles in a Kopitiam (traditional coffee shop; in Singapore for me specifically) chatting
@@evertime123 Oo yes indeed, monkey would be great on here
@@FionaPGT Haha yeah. So much stuff to talk about with Chris
I think the title is pretty accurate. except the wagyu. I think Number one consumer of Famichiken is more accurate
Im ready for the throw down battle! Trevor vs Ludwig will be great
The Rhett and link comment was gold 😂
I've got to say, I know very little about this guy but I thought he was just kind of a streamer bro. The two videos I've seen of him before this, and this one, have really turned me around. I find I relate to him a lot and he is very thoughtful. What a wonderful surprise.
