Josh Radnor is really a big inspiration for me. He is such a humble man and he didnt let fame change who he is.
It seemed like she was trying to keep the convo flowing but ended up interrupting too much lol.
he killed it in Hunters tho!
I would go as far as to say: Fame helped him discover who he was. Really amazing, the amount of introspection and reflection without getting negative about any of these things.
Not a bad statement by Josh : "failure is guaranteed; 100% you're gonna fail. It's just a matter of : can you string together those failures so that it turns into something called success."
Yeah, a good quote an old friend used to tell me was, "Every failure is like a rock. Some use them as stepping stones; others use them as stumbling blocks."
He's literally Ted, while NPH is the opposite of Barney lol
Yeaj that’s probably cause barney is the opposite of ted
@L no littlerly not. He is gay and married he is like James. No hate to homosexuality btw
@L yeah I know but but you forgot married
@L well lets just agree he is a Stinson lol
hmm maybe not exactly opposite ....NPH might be like Barney's brother who got married :P
I would love to see a podcast with him as a host.
Hey I second that! This guy's makes good conversation!
And his voice really works with explanations and comedy bits
You can’t see a podcast bro
A TED TALK
Alessandra Giorla DID YOU JUST-
Josh just seems like an actually grateful dude, I know he literally said it himself, but his tone and attitude do have this "I know you know me for HIMYM and even though I'm tired of it I still really appreciate it and am fond of it" ring to it that really gets to me. Seems like a dude that knows his place, and that seems well sorted out.
Anyone else irritated with the interviewer always interrupting him and not allowing him to finish answering
Well it's a woman
You'd hate Gary vee😂😂
Im married so its normal to me
That was big time annoying. Do you want the question answered or do you know already what he will say. Best interviewers give the other person plenty of time to talk!
Not so much really, it's a casual conversation I'd say
I just wish she hadn’t interrupted him.
yessss especially @3:05
Well they might've had a limited time
I think it's the editing
I think she might be the best interviewer i've seen , she really knows how to get the point out and move on to another without ruining the flow of the conversation or making it stagnate for 1 second . She even knew how to steer the conversation part to something interesting which eventually became the whole appeal of the video . " wait wait wait wait you got fired ?" and she kept him there coz the drama . 10/10 from me
American interviews try to be the star themselves
Listening to him is so enjoyable. He's so intelligent and focused. I wish Hollywood would cast him more. He seems like a kind of guy that has a lot of creativeness in him, that's ready to be put in action.
Josh should consider writing a book on failure and optimism, I'd definitely read that.
Btw Josh I haven't watched how I met your mother!
I think all actors kinda have to have that in them
You should watch it, it's really good
It's so fucking good
@Shady Coder he has a youtube channel
You need to !!
Josh Radnor :
Interviewer : "it was a blessing in disguise"
NBC : GUYS WE FOUND THE TITLE
He seems like a really humble down to earth person
I love Josh Radnor. Everything he touches is gold, but doesn't get the recognition... screw the Ted character, Josh is where its at.
He’s too real to make it big in Hollywood 😂
And wtf his still not married dammm schmosby 😂😂
Bro I thought I was the only one keeping tabs on that
he really must be searching for "The One"
@@swanay1 He said -almost- "Just so people don't think I am like Ted..." So I don't think that's why he hasn't gotten married
Because I haven't met him yet... lol
Classic schmosby
I laughed at the fact he did an INKTALK instead of a Ted talk.
Hahahaha Thank you for this comment.
It's a bit obvious tho why radnor didn't do a TED talk
Great talk! It makes such a huge difference when you can tell the interviewer has made the effort to do some research. I appreciate the way she's able to reference things about his background, career, and subjects he's touched upon both in past interviews and his INKtalk.
Amazing person and outstanding actor
Abdelaziz Emad and classic schmosby
How i met your mother is the best show , honestly ever .
Have you watch FRIENDS?
Jay Mayo I never got into friends. Idk why. I watched a few episodes and I disliked it. Himym is soo good. It’s a show you have on in the background a show that never gets old
@@jasneetkaur2655 Friends gets better and better. HIMYM is great from the start.
*The office has entered the chat
@@rgg9337 well the office got it's own genre
I love his words, especially when he said that he didn't have connections
5:14 "I immediately knew how to play the guy[Ted]"
No wonder 😂
Why?
@@quantessenz Because, it appears that a vast vast majority of who he really is shares the same traits of Ted the character.
IDK him, but as an actor, I play roles I can act less and reveal more. IDK, maybe Ted changed him to more like the character, maybe he always was or maybe in reality he's nothing like the character. Maybe I am bias, but I think he played Ted well because they shared a lot.
Its kind surprise that he didnt said "i love you" during this whole conversation. Good for you Schmosby!
A TV interview with a great guest and wonderfully conducted?!?! How is this possible 😅 Didn't expect this!
And the interviewer is interested, this seems like a good show
I love him so much. He's such a great actor and has a beautiful personality. 💙
Thanks Josh Radnor for being cool headed and enduring those moments when the girl cuts you mid sentences, like "hurry up, I need you to answer all my question, don't want anymore additional details," enduring them like a champ. 😅
Shes a truly terrible interviewer. Sam Jones from off camera is the absolute best I've seen, this women could learn a great deal about the art of asking guests questions from him.
I really appreciate Josh's perspective. Personally, I worked to become the person I wanted to become until I was 30, at which point I realized that wasn't working. Since then, I have been becoming the person I need to become. They are completely different journeys.
WOW josh sounds MUCH more friendly when he’s not acting like ted.
A S well “ted” like any other sitcom protagonist, is prone to lapses of self centred morality, Ted just seems to have it worse than anyone else.
This was the most calming interview I’ve ever seen. I feel at peace thank you
“You had a pretty good run..”
“....thanks.”
Lmao he was so insulted
Sure sounded bad, but I reall hope she didn't mean it like that 😂😂
Lauren P - yeah, that was bad. 😖
She ment the show, not his career and he knew exactly what she ment. Your starting fires.
It's 2019 and I am very grateful for his high school guidance counselor ❤👏
His music is a nice way to get over HIMYM
after he got fired he probrably hit his former boss with a chair so...
ah yes the four pronged approach
@@adammadill9379 Really brings the receiver to their knees.
Thank you Josh! Amazing interview, and he is such a humble, genuine, talented guy.. he was so on spot talking about the fame , success and happiness, that it doesnt necessarily come along with each other. I can see, he might lean to depressive thoughts, or being so, n I'm saying it because I Am having depression and what he says that our head, mind is the worst enemy and biggest obstacle. I couldnt agree more . . This pattern of negative thoughts are just coming all over so often, it's hard to not believe in them sometimes. It's hard to pick good ones .. thats why he is practicing meditation, which is cool thing, I used to do, but gave up .. I just love him being so " close"to us, so real, and kind. He is rare type, that's why he is not in this Show off Hollywood scenes. Much respect, and love to Josh! Always!
Ted got damn hot with some added age. ”BUT YOU STILL DONT SUITED UP.” :(
He and the charachter he played literally solved half of my problems ,
The other halves are solved by chandler and Joey's friendship
Thanx God for these two beautiful shows
Omg this lady interrupts him the whole time
It's called having a conversation in real life. Plus she's interviewing him, so it's her job to lead that conversation into topics that the viewing public might find interesting.
Notice how there isn't an awkward moment. She's good at her interview. She leads into other moments without it being unconnected.
@@fredericmoresmau4303 what??
@@HigHrvatski well real conversations happen like this but its infuriating to watch
I thought she did a great job??
Great actor, great person. HIMYM is helping me through some tough times, I'm very grateful that I took the time to watch it.
I would absolutely love to have a conversation with him, just because. I feel it’d be such a great and fulfilling experience... anyone agrees?
Yis
Totally. It was my first thought.
He's such a beautiful soul , I love him so much and wish him so much happiness
I don't see anything wrong with his face. And his voice is so soothing to me.
He, Jake Johnson, and Keanu Reeves should star in action comedy movie
He’s sweet ❤️
Monie Muse you horny gurl?
@@jonathandonovan1802 damn dude lol
I love the advice from this guy.
He sure knows how to brush off negative thoughts!
Great role model for all of us!
🇵🇬❤️
His agent was very confident in his success.
After watching many "Actors Roundtable" from The Hollywood Reporter, I have come to realize that actors/actresses are the ultimate society researchers. They get into what it is to be human and they get to experience so more opportunities to see other point of views than most humans.
I think this guy is quite a capable actor -and definitely not annoying like the ones who just want to be "stars" -Radnor wants to tell stories. I'd like to see him in more shows and movies.
Very authentic human...and a useful advice: "Say yes to failure and pick the good thoughts."
One of the best talks ..
Love you Josh
How the fuck they didn't like his face like I'm in love with his face
That was a great interview! Rooting for your success Josh!
Thanks for attending Kate's TED Talk.
I'm glad I stayed until the end. This is a brilliant interview and I'm sure a lot of us really relates to Josh.
I LOVE HIS FACE
Wow, this is first I’ve seen any materials about Josh Radnor outside of HIMYM, and I absolutely love this guy
Say yes to failure ...pick the good thoughts
THe more i watch the interview the more TED he becomes, its amazing.
It is criminal that Rise only got one season. Such an incredible show.
Such a beautiful soul
"Pick the good thoughts" ✨
I’ll write this down.
I love Josh, incredible guy.
Josh Radnor is really an inspiring actor as he really thinks out of the box and I love that
I could listen to Josh talk all day. He’s such a great storyteller. I can’t finish the interview, though. Interviewers who interrupt drive me bonkers.
I saw him around Lincoln Center once and I told the group of people I was hanging with, “Haaaaaave you met Ted?”
I think the more I watch and hear him the more I like him. The Ink talk was great!
What's wrong with her? Let him finish talking...,
does She have to interrupt every single time?
At 12:44 when he starts talking about his depression and she goes. "YA DONT WE ALL DO THAT! HAHA" oh man
she's probably nervous because she's got the hots for him
That's called womanterrupting
I can’t see him playing anything but ted seen the show more than 20 times and still feels fresh
i wish i could see Josh Radnor on Hot Ones
The guidance counselor gave the greatest guidance she could...respect
Too bad, NBC pulled the plug on Rise. It was a really great show. A lot of relateable stories in one drama...
Always loved his work!
This man is a genius,
In my opinion
I knew him from himym but, Josh is such a great person, well spoken, smart, passionate. Damn
Is it that common for an interviewer to cut him talking so many times? Why is no one talking about it? Pretty sure his excitement deteriorates from 4:01.
Great guy, never seen the tv shows but I get him
You should!!!
Such a down to Earth guy. I wish him well!
11:03 I think he could be also play a role in a action-movie pretty well. He got those John Wick vibes
I doubt it
lol imagine having your guidance councilor push you to go into the arts instead of doing everything to convince you otherwise
Thank you 🙏🏾
“Yes to failure and pick the good thoughts.”
Damn he's got that *quick smile then goes back to looking super serious and creepy look*
I saw this right at 8:24 before he did it haha crazy timing
I appreciate the honesty , and it is indeed important to have mentors . I had none ... absolutely NONE . and you really can not get far if you have no guiding lights
He was so good in Mercy Street. Damn you, PBS.
he's so inspiring!
Your POV. You are watching this after finishing season 9 of HIMYM but rip how harsh they have that lighting in this interview like wow!!!
Favourite character ever
Interesting, he never talks about his part in Not Another Teen Movie. Great flick.
I have so much respect for him ❤️ what a lovely man.
I loved him in HIMYM (ofc) and I loved him on Mercy Street.
He’s so likable!
My future husband.
Hands down my favourite!!!
i love him so much
He should do TEDtalks. 😊
Love This Guy ❤️
He is a so smart person I like him very much Joshua Michael Radnor 7/29/1974😀
@Josh I meet you awhile a go and you seemed a bit grumpy. Seeing this definitely changes my perspective of you and understanding your journey. Apologies for my ignorance and many wonderful moments on your journey.
T-mose. I love you
I raise you a cup of tea today Josh
I brove (bro love) Josh definitely more than Ted
Weren't you also on Buffy with Alyson? How did that play into How I Met Your Mother?
Ted got on my nerves but is actors really cool respect for this guy
He's a lot like Ted. But then having a camera on his face probably subconsciously turns him into Ted given that he played that role for so long.
