      Thought I was the only one who picked up on this, I respect his drive and grind but Lawrence can be really obnoxious at times and I think he annoyed Louis slightly at times in this with some of his comments.

    Every time Lawrence says something inappropriate or short sited and Louis gently corrects it so we can watch it without feeling awful about listening to it. Thank you, Louis! People are saying forgiving things about Lawrence in the comments as if to excuse him, I wonder if he's normally more evolved but was just nervous cause it was Louis Theroux?! Bless him.

    Great podcast.
    I do like Loz, his contributions are often very insightful and generally brings the questions to a deeper meaning and feel than Brian's line of questioning. However he needs to work on his timing. Being a co-host is definitely a skill. His interruptions when Louis was mid flow of a story were very jarring.

    I've listened to this a few times now, as I do with most podcasts, and it's a great podcast. Brian has really really made himself into an absolute podcasting beast, very good questioning, and attempted to make the whole thing flow well. Lawrence, on the other hand, really needs to work on his timing and read the situation a bit better, instead of just almost losing control and feeling like he has to say something, especially when the guest is speaking and mid-conversation. At times, it felt almost cringy with Louis trying to get things back on track after Lawrence attempted to make a joke, which I don't think any of them hit well.

Lawrence honestly ruined this, he is the single reason I couldn't watch until the end. This screaming for attention with his jokes and constant interrupting was insufferable. This isn't just bad interviewer etiquette it's damn rude!. People are watching because they are interested in hearing what the person you are interviewing has to say, the spotlight should be on them so stop trying to jump in whenever they try to say anything whatsoever. I really hope that things change in future interviews. True Geordie, you did absolutely amazing man 👏, you clearly are a very talented and warm interviewer so thank you, genuinely.

      Louis made jokes back to him several times so it wasn't this pathetic vie for attention that you are making it out to be. You wanted a stuck up "Inside the Actors Studio" type interview and you didn't get it so you are taking it out on someone who is just doing his job the way Geordie hired him to do it. There are plenty of interviews with Louis that are exactly what you are looking for but this one isn't it and its probably not for you. Don't go to an ice cream shop and expect prime rib.

    Fair play to Brian for for being a loyal friend and sticking with Lawrence. He’s absolutely insufferable. The more intelligent the guest the worse he gets. Has to cut in when the guest is halfway through there points. He’s like a puppy wanting all the attention. You can tell Louis can see through him.

      Lawrence is impatient and interupts a lot, but he drived a lot of the conversation on this one. Feel this is a bit disrespectful. He knew way more about Louis' work on this one and asked a lot of very valuable questions. He was clearly nervous here, it's very apparent Lawrence admires Louis.

      @@liamk87 I’m not so sure, I agree with Lewis on this
. He made some pretty badly timed jokes, particularly in the first 1/3, but he had a lot to add, more than Brian imo, although Brian did bring some excellent questions and is an excellent interviewer in general, Lawrence really did a lot for this, you just have to look past some awkward moments. If you watch the mood, Louis does also engage with him a lot, and in terms of actual conversation and discussion, although not super common, I’d say the most engaged instances are between Lawrence and Louis, not with Brian. Overall I think Lawrence needs to hone his skill a lot more than Brian does, but to say he doesn’t have it is vastly missing talent
