Nardwuar talks to Henry Rollins. August 15, 1998. Check out another interview Nardwuar did with Henry 13 years later here • Nardwuar vs. Henry Rol... !
I love how when Henry realizes how much work Nardwuar puts into his interviews he actually lightens up and gives him a real interview! Still gives him attitude after but still respects the art!
@@lutze5086 Maybe you took it that way, but Henry was pretty much just saying it as if he was a bit taken aback, and it implies Nardwuar is a completely different person off-camera. A persona that I don't think anyone really sees outside of possibly those he interviews
That's how he acts towards most people, he's got a disgustingly huge ego, but minus the ego, he's a respectable guy. Just wish he would drop the fuckin attitude and like, loosen up a little. Man is a wealth of experience and stories, but who knows how many will ever be shared.
@@MacaqueStinx honestly If past Henry met current Henry, he’d probably beat the shit out of himself for going soft lmao but I guess that’s what happens with age
That's what made it so great and people talking poorly about Rollins need to watch some of the interviews where the interviewer is nowhere near as intelligent as Nard. This was amazing that he got Henry to stay so chill for so long, especially considering some of the questions he asked 😂 Must've been the coffee lol
Numb, and tired of morons who think that their sad attempt to goad me into feeling something, due to their own lame need to justify their own self inflated need for validity, will offer their being some level of pathetic justification, or satisfaction- for whatever ails you: you're lame and irrelevant to my existence.
AmericanAkosm i’m gonna be real with you, homie. whatever you were trying to say with that last comment was not very well articulated, and the only thing i got from it was that you seem like a pompous prick who mimics the largest you know in an attempt to sound smart so you can trick yourself into thinking you’re above others. you’re no better than the rest of us, bud.
@@AmericanAkosm I agree with Michael, you really need to proofread your shit more. You didn't communicate anything at all, other than that you have a shit personality. Also just for clarity, the "virgin vs chad" thing is a reference to a meme in a community called "incels", and the "virgin" represents weak, ineffective, undesirable men, and the "chad" represents strong, impressive, desirable men. So that comment was playing with that meme by characterizing Henry Rollins as a virgin and Nardwuar as a chad. I think part of why that's so charming here is that this is the reverse of what you would expect, but there's also an element of truth to it because Nardwuar is, despite his initial appearance, a formidable person.
@@tjcmoto5484 He realises he was flat out being a bellend to an interviewer who was asking genuinely in depth questions. He pretty much admits it afterwards.
Even though I'm not a fan of Henry's, I could watch these two talk forever. They're both smart guys but with different personalities. I like Henry's furrowed brow as he tries to determine if he's being disrespected, and Nardwuar's unflinching courage to keep pushing him. So many hilarious exchanges result.
Honestly I'm just surprised at how long Rollins kept trying to put conversational boundaries in place only for Nardwuar to leap over each one with all the energy of your dog smelling your neighbour's BBQ
I love this interview so much it's like a little movie. Beginning, a bored and tired rollins who has no respect for nardwuar, to appreciating his effort yet still suspicious of his character, to showing signs of endearment and giving him his full attention.
There are some other clips on RUclips where you can hear his actual speaking voice. He's also broken character a couple times. He seems pretty normal to be when he's not beefing up his persona.
Him interviewing Eric Andre was magical. The guy known for being an insane interviewer was given a taste of his own medicine and didn’t seem to know what to do!
I love how Rollins got sick of it and told him he had one more question, so Nardwuar worked around it by laying out every single question he was planning to ask and let Rollins pick one, even Rollins was like 'well shit, okay you win' hahahaha.
I love that there's a moment when Henry is listening to the run of questions where he suddenly gets it. He starts to play along and basically relaxes a little. :)
Henry probably was hoping that Narduwar would touch his soup can. "I fucked a stripper in DC" yeah sure you did Henry. A stripper that you picked up at Chippendales.
I've never seen an interviewee go through so many different levels in an interview. Confusion hate denial acceptance appreciation shock awe,, and so much more. Ha nardwuar broke him. I've seen some interviews of badass gangster rappers vs nardwuar and within a minute they are in blind acceptance of his sheer awesomeness and they understand that he's asking them questions nobody else ever has or ever will.
Nardwuar's got some balls just chugging right along with the interview... especially when he spat out all those questions in a row when Henry said he only had one left. Haha!
No he doesn't. This is a guy who feels emasculated because he lacks confidence, which is why he is such a sordid piece of shit who feels like bullying 14 year old kids.
I get how some people don't like Henry's attitude. But he's a true punk rocker. And his aggression made this one of the most interesting Nardwuar interviews, what a pro interviewer.
I think Henry thought he was trying to make him look bad so he was being defensive but his opinion changed a little bit when he talked to Nardwuar more.
actually he's grown on me ...he does have an irritating style but he's a genuine guy and he made his own thing happen ...but fuck that doo doo bullshit at the end of everything lol
"I was also wondering, if you get bigger, if it's a possibility that you'll be able to get more tattoos actually on your body." That was the question that broke the camels back, and won Rollins over :)
This is ridiculously enjoyable. Both these guys have such strong personalities. Props to Nardwuar for playing this character with such beautiful commitment, he's a legend.
The late 90’s was when Rollins was the most cynical and self-isolating. The books he wrote around this time were probably his most violent and difficult to read, in my opinion. It’s weird to think that Rollins around this time would accept a Nardwuar interview.
@@SmartStr33t That makes it really funny then, to imagine Henry reading “Narduar” on a piece of paper or email or on the phone and thinking “huh, ya sure ok.” Poor Henry trapped himself
Henry Rollins just sees peoples' true intentions and doesn't tolerate people's bullshit. It can pass off as being an asshole, but he's just his own kind of nice. I really respect that about Rollins. He's himself.
+Iggy Oak u mad? heads up you're about to get real butthurt: I don't listen to blackflag, or like henry rollins for his musical offerings - I know almost nothing about them, or the genre he's in for that matter.
+Iggy Oak I wasn't telling you my opinion. I don't have an opinion on his music. That's all I was saying.. I thought you'd be a be bit butturt (actually you do sound a bit butthurt) because nothing I have to say is about your preferences in music (of which I have no opinion). Hey man let's just forget this about be friends, we don't even disagree on anything!
Love the way Nardwaur handled that, the multiple choice thing felt like “well Henry I like you and want to talk to you but if you don’t here’s the rest of my questions and if you don’t want to answer any of them then you can go” and I think Henry picked up on that and respected the shit out of it. That took some balls.
I once saw Sook Yin Lee (muchmusic in Canada) interview Massive Attack and they were incredibly rude, and she collapsed. I'd love to see Nardwar deal with those guys.
Your comment is a case study in how to make an ignorant comment about a guy with a great deal of intelligence and self-awareness. I guess you're some nerd who thinks all muscular guys are evil
@@boxychubbo6922 Henry's a great guy. He could have spent his life working minimum wage but he lifted himself out of that through initiative and sheer hard work, made some great records, then transformed himself into a sought after public speaker.
@@boxychubbo6922 Rude, condescending behaviour toward idiots is entirely appropriate and ought to be encouraged. Nard is no fool - just the opposite - but it's clear that Henry takes him for one, and with Nard's schtick, who can blame him? Besides, Nard's breath apparently created a bad impression. There's a later interview where Henry is (a bit) nicer to him. If you really want to see people being douches to Nard, check out his Blur, Lydia Lunch, and, to a lesser extent, Sonic Youth interviews
Nardwars interviews have improved - he learnt how bring the interviewee with him but at 7 min Henry gives up and just becomes taken in by the mighty Nard.
It’s like Henry wants to have fun w the interview, but Henry won’t let him
So Henry is having an internal struggle
This might be the best comment on youtube.
Very funny
Lmfao
@@upshitdownshit4200 Henry isn't but Henry is
I feel like this interview was Henry's first big step towards lightening the fuck up
why lol. i think most people who dont suck ass for a living would be put off by nard, that's kind of the point.
@@lumpusman wtf
@@poundcayx wtf what?

He realized he needs to let go of his earthly tether, and become the wind.
This interview was an emotional journey for Henry. I feel like he grew as a person in these 9 minutes. Well done Henry, proud of you champ.

its was 1) whys this guy such an ass 2) wait am I the ass? 3) we are both the ass and thats fine lol

Jaw like a steroid user
He’s like a living simulacrum of the chad side of the chad vs incel memes
I love how when Henry realizes how much work Nardwuar puts into his interviews he actually lightens up and gives him a real interview! Still gives him attitude after but still respects the art!
He's such a fucking dork having to point out that nardwuar is playing a high energy character, like that's some kind of unique insight

I don't think he respected him for shit. The guy is so pathetic but harmless.
He was so disrespectful towards Nardwuar, at least he lighten up at the end and tried to be less hostile.
@@lutze5086 yeah not everyone wants to be around this type of energy. Shits annoying and draining
I like how Henry acts like he has better things to do in 1998 than to talk to Nardwuar for 15 minutes
That's how he acts towards most people, he's got a disgustingly huge ego, but minus the ego, he's a respectable guy. Just wish he would drop the fuckin attitude and like, loosen up a little. Man is a wealth of experience and stories, but who knows how many will ever be shared.
Well, he did have to play a henchman in the movie Heat, and there was those Gap commercials...
@@MacaqueStinx He's gotten better about it all, the older he gets the more he drops the douchey shit.
@@MacaqueStinx honestly If past Henry met current Henry, he’d probably beat the shit out of himself for going soft lmao but I guess that’s what happens with age
@@MacaqueStinx He used to have a super huge ego, but not as much anymore. He doesn't like to be jerked around.
Arguably one of the best interviews of all time. The unapproachable Henry Rollins VS the unflappable Narduwar, a showdown for ages
What a psychological brawl
Great comment. Haha I thought the same
DopestHD Nardwuar won
@@Fatlexis He always wins, except for 'vs Lil B' lol

That sums it up perfectly.
Michael Chacon lhhh
Perfect analogy.
id say nardwuar is way more riddler than joker.
"You're touching my soup can, buddy." "I'm sorry about that." Pretty much encapsulates the entire interview.
hahah yes indeed
😂😂😂😂
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
7:20
“You got one question left”
Proceeds to answer all 5 questions
After he heard them all, he realized his genius and how fun it could be. He was just revving him up as he was about to quit!
“Why are you asking me all this stuff from 13 years ago.”
My man just doesn’t understand nardwaur
Or interviews in general.
13 years later Nardwuar interviews him again
He’s a shit interviewer, a real MTV shill
Because the fans would like to know
Andrew V you’re joking right? 💀💀
The moment Nardwaur wins Henry Rollins over by listing all his questions is pretty cool
k emps nice! I was waiting for it.... loved that moment. "I gotta respect that" while not smiling at all
+k amps lost him again at the end
+k emps Rollins is still being ridiculously impolite...
Rollins isn't worth winning over. He's a monumental douchebag.
Especially for a guy that goes around bragging about how polite he is. Definitely being a fucking dick here.

Sgt. Baker “You’re touching my soup can there, buddy.”
JT Splosion you’re touching my soup can there buddy
"He's a born again christian."
"Well, we all end up somethin'."
Not even a minute in.
Henry Rollins just sees peoples' true intentions and doesn't tolerate people's bullshit.
It can pass off as being an asshole, but he's just his own kind of nice. I really respect that about Rollins. He's himself.
shrimpanzee001 that comment is 3 years old yo
Fieldy Znuts that comment is 2 days old... yo
cesar herrera still relevant yo
Michael Briseño no, he’s an angry souled asshole lol
Nah, he's def an asshole. Or at least, he was.
oh dude henry rollins is so real, I love it, he's in a different game. Nardwuar really being tested here, and crushing it!
+Iggy Oak u mad?
heads up you're about to get real butthurt: I don't listen to blackflag, or like henry rollins for his musical offerings - I know almost nothing about them, or the genre he's in for that matter.
+RolandMcGruner no, not mad. and how would that make me butthurt? you telling me your opinion is basically invalid lol
+Iggy Oak I wasn't telling you my opinion. I don't have an opinion on his music. That's all I was saying.. I thought you'd be a be bit butturt (actually you do sound a bit butthurt) because nothing I have to say is about your preferences in music (of which I have no opinion).
Hey man let's just forget this about be friends, we don't even disagree on anything!
+RolandMcGruner I'm not. and I don't care. and no. fuck you.
+Iggy Oak sorry to have upset you.
God he's got a muscular NECK.
Imagined if he worked out, jeez
@@RUclipsIsTheWorstDOOMLevel, haha yes.
Y'all forgot about Doyle from the misfits
You’ll love Corey Taylor
And a soup can COCK
the virgin "Eric Andre interview" VS the chad "Henry Rollins interview"
na
@@dewdop ya
Nardwaur a legend
and Henry is a d*ck
roy_for_real lol
Nah not really he’s a toggaf
He's the best!!! This is maybe the best interview i've ever seen, period.
My uncle used to be friends with him
"you're touching my soup can buddy."
it was at that point that nard realised he's got this guy hooked line and sinker lol.
Hook, line, and sinker.... it's a fishing reference.
3:19 holy shit that is a large coffee
Two masterminds playing chess. Great interview
This interview was like a love hate relationship
Nardwaur DESTROYS Henry Rollins with QUESTIONS and LOGIC
Miss reign I’m pretty sure it’s a joke 😂
@Miss reign DESTRUCTION
its easy to force a conversation when you hold the microphone
@@Heatseeker1996 sure?
This guy is Sean Evans with a power level over 9000.
"and im also wondering if you get bigger if it's a possibility that you will be able to get more tattoos on your body"
*rollins smirks*
Love the way Nardwaur handled that, the multiple choice thing felt like “well Henry I like you and want to talk to you but if you don’t here’s the rest of my questions and if you don’t want to answer any of them then you can go” and I think Henry picked up on that and respected the shit out of it. That took some balls.
late 90s henry rollins was kind of a tool. good thing he mellowed a bit
If he wasn't who he was in his run would he even have been as well known? You're right tho.. dude took himself seriously as hell
What a genius interviewer. This should be a case study in how to successfully interview a jerk.
I once saw Sook Yin Lee (muchmusic in Canada) interview Massive Attack and they were incredibly rude, and she collapsed. I'd love to see Nardwar deal with those guys.
Ehhh Nard definitely did great but some of the questions were quite doltish
Your comment is a case study in how to make an ignorant comment about a guy with a great deal of intelligence and self-awareness. I guess you're some nerd who thinks all muscular guys are evil
@@boxychubbo6922 Henry's a great guy. He could have spent his life working minimum wage but he lifted himself out of that through initiative and sheer hard work, made some great records, then transformed himself into a sought after public speaker.
@@boxychubbo6922 Rude, condescending behaviour toward idiots is entirely appropriate and ought to be encouraged. Nard is no fool - just the opposite - but it's clear that Henry takes him for one, and with Nard's schtick, who can blame him? Besides, Nard's breath apparently created a bad impression. There's a later interview where Henry is (a bit) nicer to him. If you really want to see people being douches to Nard, check out his Blur, Lydia Lunch, and, to a lesser extent, Sonic Youth interviews
6:40 is when Henry’s vibe changed
Henry has ADHD
almightybeanchild bro i have adhd, it doesn’t work like that at all lmao
@@SneakyFruitBat there's different types ya dingus
almightybeanchild yeah i know but it doesn’t change your mood, ya dingus. also do you have adhd? because i probably know more about it than you do
@@SneakyFruitBat I do. Is a mood changer.
This is one of the best and most funny interviews I've ever seen; from anyone anywhere!
Just a few more questions - 8 Min left.
Literally the most entertaining interview I've ever seen, I musta watched this video at least fifteen times.
10 Strength + 90 Intimidation vs. 10 Charisma + 100 Speech
0:38
3:50
Nardwuar is on fire lol
How did the camera person not laugh
"You're touching my soup can" Lost it
I can't hate Nard. Its impossible
Nardwars interviews have improved - he learnt how bring the interviewee with him but at 7 min Henry gives up and just becomes taken in by the mighty Nard.
Belushi getting Fear and Black Flag onto SNL is an awesome thing I never knew. What a badass.
I love how Rollins's grimace officially turns into a smile @ 6:16
