mmm
bro
Ricky it's great to see you again it's always a pleasure to sit across from you
thank you it's a little past seven o'clock eastern time and money evening
and that September
who is mad at you today an eye on Mon Ami
you conquer no one could be mad at me I'm 30 do you
I would you think if there's something also provocateur because
it was necessary anything about the office that suggest that but I feel like
with each
further integration and your work whether it's extra razor
certainly with the Golden Globes and and even a little bit and Derek years
a little more willingness to tupelo people well
I suppose it's because ideally to do subjects I I was house I think again
that's because I want to take the audience to place hasn't been before
I'm a you know I iced secretly oh look behind the car and I do think that
up comedians job a particularly in stand-up
isn't just to make people laugh it's to make you think as well again I think
I it's too easy people come out to laugh essay will in turn off their going to
laughably anyway whatever you throw in that
you know so I think that I was a very whether people have
you know paid good money they've got to find a park in spice in the babys and
maybe in you know and
you wanna give us something that's and slightly different
you I'm and some the to go why with so I do like my stuff to seoul resin I
a a job at I'm but I think the main thing is that I do TV interview subjects
and I think the offense comes from very often
people mistaking the target the joke
with the subject of a joke and they're rarely this time and I think not know
Banton come
up discussing two subjects the reason that to do is that no one wants to
discuss them and icy out on all the time we stand that we know
first as a clenching then there's a guy ask
then there's a lot of fun at all that was right few II
SIII warn the movie is terrible place tonight a concert by the hands might
come on this or sunshine
and I do think about I think that everything I've done
a in on the face looks like whites knocking
ironic considering a call I'm a a you know I think everything I've done is
also
call optimistic and uplifting yeah if you are told in advance of that
you know a certain subject is off limits are you know that there is a resistance
or
as he smiling all right now less dangerous nice down just because you
want to know why
is okay if someone says this is off limits
because it's at some terrible tries this happen to someone no question about it
course now
if they say it's off limits because
the boss doesn't like I Asus problem IIIi I think you're allowed to go to
anyone's behavior their ideals what they love you know
I don't think you can go for people for something that can help
you know so I'm but yeah
as a comedian and I think particularly with me I've always had
I'm a big kid I think most men are that's when my themes in most things in
a man as boys in women is grown ups I think it's I
I'm not saying never grown out I'm but there's there's there's
to 20 people in your head find don't say that 10
a way and people find offensive
them I like your yeah I know they find offensive
yeah I think someone like that I like him I like the guy who likes to every
night
I just like this this guy's many more days we know he always wins the only way
yeah this guy don't talk too much yeah
he's been on holiday yeah is it is a square yeah
apart it would mean the office so great and so precious is that there was
such a finite amount yet there was just the two seasons the Christian specials
that's it it was it was it in any way difficult for you to watch
the American version go on for nine seasons and 200 episodes in hand
you know Carell leaves in it still goes on do you know you deserve
just let it kinda be its own thing syndication yeah I made one i three
hundred up yeah I've ever ended
yeah how going on exhausted now you know 90 state come on
of it yeah
it's funny because it's true I'm know that sounds really cynical
it wasn't my baby of course I you know that the office was just much more
view mine artistic million a Anna intensive
i spose emotionally and that but I think the office
the american officers great I thought was really good and you know that's a
hard I have to do that
they took a sensibility is no stars at the time though
stars now no laugh track you know it was network as well let's not forget that I
was a
you know and they did 250 episodes so
I think the whatever you think about and I think it's great and I think Steve
Krause fantastic no accosted by
I i genuinely whatever you think about it
the success story is it
without you know 9 question yes i won no I'm I'm
I'm proud of it for for them and and it was that has and
you know it it was a little bit broader I think but it had to be you know
I'm and maybe I
Michael Scott was a little bit sweeter
but you have to be because I think I'm Americans more sincere
ten Brits in many ways that you know that they don't wanna
that doom and gloom that that dark side all the time brits only Bryce a
we like the underdog and when they're not the underdog anymore we wanna kill
'em
II you you you celebrate success and you stay by and you applaud it
you know you you see some with the Rose Royce you go well done we gonna scratch
that
I'm slather was ago Rose Royce I think this
fact so a hot to be different and americans are told
they brought up to believe I can be the next president United States and I saw a
current
britt to tell me what happened to you so don't bother so it's difficult
just so difficult to go over and I still feel like
I shouldn't be rich and famous you know I still feel like I wanna
you know I would go to a restaurant I wanna go I'm not
the season for many they do on my store here yeah
if this series that you are about to introduce on
on Netflix add garrick which had premieres on Thursday
it presents you is at I was a character these
very different many other character i've ever seen on on it
a a TV series before very different kinda character he's
you've played tell us about the genesis above
the Derrick caracter where he came from and why he decided to use it to show
where it is
%uh yes a very point actually because everything
I've ever done this time accounts first time friend I'm
existed long before the office
I'm I was doing the obits for them way before I'm not
and where where to put em wow I was in office ten years and it was just right
for
in a and the moment that character
was actually I was wanna do look a wisecrack a
but the weather wise cracking didn't do him any good
there was no it didn't I to be the clever is going in the room you know
that so I
saw though you know a where would it be he got to be
go acting my I'm
and Derek again I i've had direct I think longer than they would ban
a but originally he was a
at and/or gonna and he still is
5 tome that side it down is writing up 10 cents
I didn't want it to be another thing about find you know the office was sold
about find axed about fine
I did a stand-up show could find with the Golden Globes and I thought I want
to do
ordinary people again I'm so I turn that down
and I thought work-up am NOT I was gonna lie about why now
and OP was I'm I'm all my family
work hours growing up so about thirty years of stores
my mom and my sister my sister no and now my nieces
they've all gone into I out people care out so I'm a summer them
I and they come back every day I sometimes
with sad stories sometimes funny but that always interesting
and they've got all the pressure funding and everything and it is just
I thought it would be a great thing to
2.2m the reason I might add Derek Kentucky and CAV
solve what you think of his outsiders and soul blues as
base because I wanted kindness to come along and trump all that
right and it's a show about kindness and I'm
and that's what inspired me to do it and the other thing about it is
most people you me are more like
Derek and ugly and Kevin Hannah than
Johnny Depp and Brad Pitt and Ryan Gosling
I a so I i just i just
I feel most comfortable doing making the
very ordinary a little big storm
mmm
