Yeah,he's awesome..he's a good example of that saying "don't judge a book by its cover"..just because some might think he looks like a "dumb punk" doesn't mean he is..I love hearing him talk about life,it's deep but it's also real :)
My two favorite people. And Henry Rollins is exactly how expected. The two most punk rock people of then now and next. Sorry but this is the king and queen of punk rock. :)
I've realized lately...Henry Rollins and I are quite similar in life. Let people do what makes them happy, and we accept anything and everything. We're lone wolves, true punk rockers who don't give a fuck about anything except making the world a better place. We're both angry guys who have learned to manage our insurmountable amount of anger inside of us, and we use it to power our mission, our motive. I have Punk Rock and Henry Rollins to thank for all this. I've always been a hard-ass, punk rock lone wolf, but I balanced out my flaws and became a much happier and positive person thanks to Punk Rock, Post Hardcore, and Henry Rollins. I love you Henry Rollins. Hell, I love you RuPaul.
To see two strong, independent and intelligent individuals from diametrically different backgrounds come together and have a discussion exposing opinions and vulnerabilities without judgement or conflict is one of the most beautiful and heartening things I’ve seen… we should all strive to coexist in this world in the manner these two magnificent individuals have chosen.. ✌🏼
While I didn't love his Black Flag days, I have been seriously enamored of Henry Rollins speaking engagements. I find myself on RUclips, in awe of his brilliance, watching WAY too many hours of his lectures and spoken word performances. Seeing Henry live is on my Bucket List -- actually getting a chance to converse with him would push me over the edge! :-)
"Taste everything from the buffet and let the chips fall where they may." LOVE THIS!!! Henry and RuPaul make a great combo. Looking forward to seeing more of RuPaul drives!
2:21 I hear that,been in a few of those "honeymoon" phases with some amazing women,but it always fizzled out,since they've moved on and found happiness with others I gotta feel it was my fault entirely. Which is fine,as long as they found what they were looking for.
Frigging love this! Imagine pulling up and Henry Rollins and RuPaul are out cruising, lol! Love it! Great show and glad I am not too late to watch this.
Love Henry Rollins since the 80's when I was introduced to him and his music. He has continued to surprise me a complex human being. It takes people like him to show enlightenment and tolerance to other. I soooo agree with HammarHeart, so well said!
Katie Kaos Saw him speak in 2009 & he had us laughing for almost 3 hrs. Met him after the show, one of the coolest guys you can meet -- if you get a chance to, don't pass it up!
Let's do it...Teresa Germano.. Face book Woman with shoulder length. Spiral permed hair and a light blue shirt(for there is more than one Teresa Germano). Hit me up whenever
Here's my advice for those feeling stuck in the celebrity rosy glass prison: Take all the money you've made and are capable of making and invest in cybernetic inventions until you can make yourself into an armored superstrong being with laser eyes, wrist rockets, and jump jets. Then, go to Japan and fight crime.
I really don't like this facet of RuPaul, this notion he seems to have that he's got all this deep philosophical insight to share with others. It's arrogant, pedantic, and his musings are usually pretty cliché and without any real intellectual value. I hated that stuff on Drag U, so the idea that he now has a web series wherein that's ALL he does -- run for the hills!
Still, they both are celebrities and that can be quite a drag... (no pun intended). Even if you wanted to, there's there extra pressure of "who can I really trust now?".
Henry's always been the one man show. So I think that nowadays because everyone wants to be a celebrity there's probably people throwing themselves at him trying to get a piece of his celebrity so I think that's what he means
I like the tension between Rollins' menace and vulnerability. Blessing or curse, he's got that Goth gene where he appears to have black ink in his mouth about to pour out. For those that want Snookie to keep it real and not receive an honorary doctorate or speak at a non party college graduation, I enjoy seeing this other side of Ru. Not just seeing the crack dealer rifffing Ru on late night. Ru dodged an NPR interviewer who implored for makeup tips. Ru works a cosmetic magician act on his face!
Whilst this was a great interview and I love Ru - please give props to Robert Llewelyn's "Car Pool" which has been dong this on RUclips for years! Acknowledge - I say this with love and respect. X
That's just Henry though, if you ever get the chance to see him live it's just a constant part of his personality. There's this manic fear that's ever-present in all of his interactions from everything I've ever seen of him. It seems especially present when he's around people he respects or reveres, such as in this video.
Yes! And I actually find it a little bit disappointing that these episodes are so short! I love Llewelyn for his long episodes where you can really get to hear everything.
Cool that the car sets off from outside the WOW buidling on the corner of Hollywood Blvd and N. Cherokee Ave in Hollywood, which is where The Masque was located, or, in fact, kind of still is, because it's the basement of the WOW building and the grafitti is still on the walls. That black gate to the left with the red writing now blocks the alleyway that led to the entrance to the club. You can see it even more clearly in the final shot. The ghost of early LA punk becomes thick ectoplasm at this exact spot.
I've found most of these 'Drived' interesting but after a while I've become claustraphobic being stuck in a car everytime. Hey Ru, why not do a few on the subwary of flying from gig to gig?
That was great! But it was the most heavily edited RuPaul Drives... I've seen so far. Why is that? I still haven't watched part 2, so ...... IDK. Love the show, Ru, love the passengers-love every conversation. Get this on a network!
can I lobby for a show where Henry Rollins and Ru Paul team up to fight crime?

Never have I needed something more and not realize it until someone pointed it out.
Same hero new boots
Always enjoy hearing what Henry has to say. He's such a smart, open and honest guy
Yeah,he's awesome..he's a good example of that saying "don't judge a book by its cover"..just because some might think he looks like a "dumb punk" doesn't mean he is..I love hearing him talk about life,it's deep but it's also real :)

I love Henry! That man has had my heart since I was 12
Same here!
I think i love him longer 🤣🤣
@@lillylilly3035 you are faaaaabulous
Henry Rollins talks about RuPaul and this car ride in his showtime special “keep talking, pal”
While I didn't love his Black Flag days, I have been seriously enamored of Henry Rollins speaking engagements. I find myself on RUclips, in awe of his brilliance, watching WAY too many hours of his lectures and spoken word performances. Seeing Henry live is on my Bucket List -- actually getting a chance to converse with him would push me over the edge! :-)
Really enjoyed the philosophizing of Henry and RuPaul.( and Henry you are one handsome silver fox!!)
Ru Paul wants Henry Rollins to find love. That gets me a little teary eyed. Faith in humanity validated.
"Taste everything from the buffet and let the chips fall where they may." LOVE THIS!!! Henry and RuPaul make a great combo. Looking forward to seeing more of RuPaul drives!
all new respect for Henry..
Anyone else loving the fact that this video has Henry Rollins AND a Volvo 242 coupe in it?!
this showed me the other wonderful side of RuPaul which I haven't seen yet. Henry is amazing. Love him and his attitude to life!
Henry is such an interesting person. I always enjoy hearing his thoughts. He is also a very beautiful man! ... inside and out.
I volunteer as tribute to marry Henry Rollins!
This!!!!!
Two of my favorite people.
Henry Rollings=awesomeness defined! Love RuPaul=keeping it oh-so-real!
Oh Henry, open yourself up to some love.
2:21 I hear that,been in a few of those "honeymoon" phases with some amazing women,but it always fizzled out,since they've moved on and found happiness with others I gotta feel it was my fault entirely. Which is fine,as long as they found what they were looking for.
Who else would drive an 80s Volvo with 20 inch rims on it??? Ru Paul, that's who.
This video made my head explode because I love both of them
Frigging love this! Imagine pulling up and Henry Rollins and RuPaul are out cruising, lol! Love it! Great show and glad I am not too late to watch this.
Love Henry Rollins since the 80's when I was introduced to him and his music. He has continued to surprise me a complex human being. It takes people like him to show enlightenment and tolerance to other. I soooo agree with HammarHeart, so well said!
Just saw Rollins on Halloween and he spoke about this. It was fucking awesome!
Katie Kaos Saw him speak in 2009 & he had us laughing for almost 3 hrs. Met him after the show, one of the coolest guys you can meet -- if you get a chance to, don't pass it up!
weird to read your comment on halloween haha
i love the idea of this, i would love to do something like this myself. just sit and drive and have a meaningful conversation with someone. beautiful.
Let's do it...Teresa Germano..
Face book
Woman with shoulder length. Spiral permed hair and a light blue shirt(for there is more than one Teresa Germano). Hit me up whenever
Ru is so Wise and just utterly amazing
WOW indeed! Please, more interviews like this one.
Great combo awesome episode really enjoyed this
They're in a 1983 Volvo 240 coupe. Such a beautiful little car. An absolute pleasure to drive.
Oh man!!! Two of the great people I love.
Its cool to know where jerry seinfeld got his idea for riding in cars with comedians lol
These two remind me of the "Old Lady House" concept from Always Sunny. They need a reality sit-com.
Great interview!
that volvo is soooooo clean
Henry Rollins looks great. I'd love to see him live.
That Volvo is everything.
I live in LA, Ru and would love to drive around with you for a little Kiki. I could use a lift from you :D
Rollins must have a massive memorabilia collection by now.
Love these
I say it all the time.. I'm a much better friend if you don't try to love me. So good to know I'm not alone. Ironic. 😊
Love you, Mama Ru!
Here's my advice for those feeling stuck in the celebrity rosy glass prison: Take all the money you've made and are capable of making and invest in cybernetic inventions until you can make yourself into an armored superstrong being with laser eyes, wrist rockets, and jump jets.

love this
"get a couple of smiles going..." :)

This was thoroughly enjoyable to watch
This is some mandela effect shit.. i swear theres a funkytown music video
That's a great back-and-forth dialogue. Good one.
I 100% agree with this statement.
This is everything!
People this is dangerous! xD conversations the main reasons car accidents happen. can we have ru drive and sing instead ?? :D
that's a bad ass car.
OMG! Fucking Punk God Henry Rollins and RuPaul! How amazing was that!
He can love me anytime!
rollins is touring! I'm seeing him next month here in Gville Florida
He was on SAnIbel Island in May this year reading at a book store. I hope he enjoyeed the nature preserve. It is awesome!
External shots in tilt-shift and colour, internal conversation shots in B&W. Interesting choices that I would like to understand.
2 of my idols. This is great. ♥
I love Henry and I love rupauls so I was like why not
These are amazing, I wish they were longer.
Still, they both are celebrities and that can be quite a drag... (no pun intended). Even if you wanted to, there's there extra pressure of "who can I really trust now?".
What do you suppose Henry means when he says, "I find myself kind of caving-in to the accessibility of another person."
Henry's always been the one man show. So I think that nowadays because everyone wants to be a celebrity there's probably people throwing themselves at him trying to get a piece of his celebrity so I think that's what he means
He might be gay or bi ppl.been saying for years now but who cares he's still awesome
That's an incredible 242 they're in, wow. Classic.
RuPaul is so insightful and so wise. I want him to drive me around in his car for an hour every month. Who do I talk to if I want to make that happen?
Two of my favourites in one Volvo. Groovy.
I like the tension between Rollins' menace and vulnerability. Blessing or curse, he's got that Goth gene where he appears to have black ink in his mouth about to pour out.
For those that want Snookie to keep it real and not receive an honorary doctorate or speak at a non party college graduation, I enjoy seeing this other side of Ru. Not just seeing the crack dealer rifffing Ru on late night.
Ru dodged an NPR interviewer who implored for makeup tips. Ru works a cosmetic magician act on his face!
So, RuPaul and Henry Rollins walk into a bar...
This is the best thing I've seen all month.
Leave it to RuPaul to call out Rollins on not having a girlfriend. The best!
Whilst this was a great interview and I love Ru - please give props to Robert Llewelyn's "Car Pool" which has been dong this on RUclips for years! Acknowledge - I say this with love and respect. X
WOW.... just wow!!! #truth
Cool!
you mean to tell me know one else hears Ru trying to guide Henry out of the closet?
So?
Curious-
Does anyone else see a look of fear in Rollins face here?
That's just Henry though, if you ever get the chance to see him live it's just a constant part of his personality. There's this manic fear that's ever-present in all of his interactions from everything I've ever seen of him. It seems especially present when he's around people he respects or reveres, such as in this video.
This was great. I've always had such a crush on Henry Rollins.
Yes! And I actually find it a little bit disappointing that these episodes are so short! I love Llewelyn for his long episodes where you can really get to hear everything.
Since when did Henry become RuPauls old friend. ?
Ask Joe Cole.
I really dug this. So much more real than a lot of the other bullshit on RUclips.
I want a video just about his Volvo.
Henry you can spread some enjoyment my way anyday.
Cool
Everyone pure spreads their legs in ru's car
Hahaha Gayle!
:)
Gayle Anderson
ru paul n henri rollins! i had no idea you were a fan. Fancy meeting you here
lol i know. Rollins did a few talks for the big think as well. It's interesting stuff! :)
He rocks I love him. Saw him play at the garage. Insane
I really do wish that these two will collaborate music wise someday soon! :-)
I have found a new lvl of respect for Henry Rollins.
This looks like a Volvo inside and out the other one look like a SUV inside and the Volvo outside with Livia
Hahah. This is wonderful.
Nice car!!!
Why are the people I admire so damn close (LA) yet so far away? Sigh... Love both these humans. Empaths unite!
Love hiiiim. Muy guapo
Since a long time ago.
I like that RuPaul drives this old ass but great condition (at least on the outside) Volvo.
i love love love love LOVE this mannnnnnn
Cool that the car sets off from outside the WOW buidling on the corner of Hollywood Blvd and N.

Two of my favorites
This is the world should be ot the garbage we experiencing
Wonderful interview
I've found most of these 'Drived' interesting but after a while I've become claustraphobic being stuck in a car everytime.
Hey Ru, why not do a few on the subwary of flying from gig to gig?
😲 I never knew this till now!
This was a great interview ^_^
That was great! But it was the most heavily edited RuPaul Drives... I've seen so far.
Why is that?
I still haven't watched part 2, so ...... IDK.
Love the show, Ru, love the passengers-love every conversation.
Get this on a network!
luv ru but seems like a knockoff of comedians in cars getting coffee w/ jerry seinfeld
Rollins is a trans man's trash can....and we think thats fabulous
