Not at all. If anything she tries so hard to make it clear that she 'gets it' and tries to be in on it by being obviously sarky and smirking all the time. Even if she knew how to play it straight, which she doesn't, that still wouldn't have been better than watching a tool who doesn't get it at all. The awkwardness makes their interviews.

From 8:35-9:35 he is holding back a gigantic laugh SO hard that he has to fake cry just to not burst out in laughter and break character 😂 they're so amazing
24:08 How in the world does someone keep a straight face after someone talks about using a diarrhea dip-stick to read their emotions?! Simply amazing. Bravo to the whole bunch for keeping it under control. Great Job!
Tim is a master of weaving his laughter into his character. 3:53 for example. He can’t hold the laugh in any longer and just comes up with context on the spot.
This whole thing is a comedic masterpiece. From the setting to the characters and the interviewer. Going from talking about a new religious cult book and the different stages to Trump knowing how to tickle Tim in his special spot. You can sometimes see how close they are going over the edge and breaking character. But all three of them manage to get through it. Unbelievably good.
I actually saw this interview when it first came out and watched it several times then, and it occurred to me some 6 years later to find it and watch it again. It's that good! Totally agree...
Tim and Eric have this magical humor, like if someone would tell a joke and horribly fail because it was bad, Tim and Eric could just repeat the same joke without any changes and everyone would laugh their asses off.
If i was here 4 years ago when you posted this I would most definitely have a thing or two to say about this comment. Crud.. I wrote two twice, even though the words have different meanings they sound exactly the same and that really makes a horrible sentence structure. Thing or two to ..
Giant props to the interviewer for being one of the ONLY ONES I’ve ever seen who interviewed Tim and Eric and played it straight so it isn’t cringe and hard to watch. So many interviewers try so hard to be in on the joke and do their style and ironically she got to be more part of the bit then anyone of them, by actually playing it STRAIGHT. All those other losers clearly think they’re so funny and they can’t pass up not trying desperately hard when these famous comedy guys come through
Have not laughed this hard in a long time, they are so good. The interviewer is really good. A huge reason why this was so funny and loose. How are they not cracking up?
This might be my favorite interview ever. Tim and Eric kill it as they normally do but the interviewer is one of the few I’ve seen who can roll with their punches and actually add something to the mix.
@@maxrusty3596 They broke character. I’ve watched them for a long time. Tim also addressed the appearance on a podcast a couple of years ago, and mentioned how they broke a couple of times, including then.

I love the way the interviewers just mockingly goes "hmm" throughout the interview at how ridiculous the whole thing is. She is great and needs to be permanently on Tim and Eric 😆
This is one of the funniest interviews I have ever watched. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. "It only takes a finger." ....."it so often only does" XDD
Congrats to her on reading the situation very early on and realizing she wasn’t talking to the comedians Tim and Eric but the High-Zone priests Tim and Eric
I found these guys and they both changed my life. I found their 7 steps at my Alcoholics Synonymous group very helpful. These guys are capable of changing your life too.
Tim's a comic genius 🤣 How are they staying stone dead straight ??? 🤯 Monk level concentration ... I couldn't do it, Tim comes super close to cracking up, but, Eric ... wow. Not even a thing 🤯 He's brilliant. Love this 🥰 You can hear the crew laughing 😅

He was having so much anxiety lmao. And I love Eric in this interview, he kept his cool

It only takes a finger... "It so often only does." Amazing interviewer
xCrumblingMirth i'm sure she loves a good finger
She really did nail this interview.. most interviewers either can't handle Tim and Eric or try too hard and go outside the baahx.
She's really great. Somewhat of a treasure put up against other T&E interviewers.
...And she tried way too hard. Being from Huffpo was a dead giveaway that she'd fail anyways.
Tim and Eric>>>>>>Interviewer, every time.
Eric almost lost it after that line, lol
8:52 The level at which Tim is suppressing his laughter here cannot be healthy. At 9:23 he's in tears. The sacrifices these men make for their art...
I can't believe he kept it together
@5:50 watch Eric almost choke and lose it when Tim said “zone trajectory”
@@ArtVandelayOfficial When Eric touched his shoulder, it nearly killed him lol
@@Guyote_ Also the womans accent and English manner only added to it 😂
That self-important head gesture, eye closing and coy smile when Tim boasts about being on zone plane 8 is just so spot on.
