They refused to be on it. First they asked to be paid for the interview, which Theroux refused, and then they used their Google search results as justification to say Theroux wasn't relevant any longer. **snort laugh** Edited to add, I also love how irrelevant it made them seem.
We see eniugh of the., we have heard all that they have to say, we know what they do.. so, yiu are so right! Makes tgem seem.. because they are.. irrelevant. Their moment is over. Theyll need to reinvent now. Their next thing will probably be feigning being sorry and seeing the error of their ways
They’ve always been irrelevant, woke lefties just didn’t have anything to grasp to so they decided to focus on this “misogyny” epidemic that doesn’t really exist rather than do anything productive like go after the grooming gangs you have in the UK.
@domgluhweinLambos, that depreciate even before they are off the lot, and one accident can cost tens of thousands to repair. Plus, they are as ugly as the owner is on the inside.
Louie was the perfect person to do this documentary because it’s nearly impossible to insult someone that has no ego lol. He’s just so calm and nonchalant in front of these ridiculous characters.
@howareyou857 It was genuinely funny to see them expect Louis to be intimidated given all the genuinely dangerous situations he and his crew have been in. These people did zero research into who they were being interviewed by.
Louis didn't go into the difficulty that the families of these boys, that are being brainwashed, are facing. And how women really feel. I think this deserves a part 2
Things come and go, and it seem like a long time from now, but in five years it will probably be forgotten, in ten Alpha males won't exist, and their kids will look back at them and laugh and it will seem unbelievably, like people saying groovy and far out chick
1 that's literally an interview style. 2 you can do this with any sub-culture or movement, just film them for 5-10 hours then clip the weirdest or awkwardest or craziest statements. it's also telling who he picked to represent manosphere. sneako did homo porn, probably not straight. myron gaines is an actual fed who worked for dhs and federal government, both now pushing questionable anti-semetic slop online.
@jabba-the-narcit's nothing new, Google Neil Strauss and Ross Jeffries, this has been going on for decades, it's just the internet makes everything bigger now.
He made himself look kind of pathetic believing half of the stuff that they said, they’re intentionally brash and controversial… it’s the whole reason he’s interviewing them, because that persona is what brings attention. They’re playing Louis like an absolute fiddle….
No. It would be one thing if Louis Theroux was just kind of a quiet man, which he is entitled to be, but being a cuck, being a kapo to his own gender, selling out his own gender to rehab his image after Jimmy Saville (who was a friend of his, look this up), that's not really healthy masculinity as far as I can see. Also the term "toxic masculinity"...I think its a term feminists created to attack men and masculinity. I'm not sure I'm a fan of this term, in the sense of, it comes with connotations and implied assumptions I'm not sure I agree with or that I think are correct.
Two things - 1. Romesh is an A-Grade interviewer, really perceptive and insightful questions. 2. I had no idea Louis was so funny, straight up hilarious. Great chat.
@paulinebuckenham6699 idk who Harvey is or what the rumours are but it does make more sense to me that that part was meant to be a joke on HS' part. It would be weird for him to act like that knowing it's being streamed to his own audience if he wasn't in on a joke
@tony-e3v6r He was such good friends with him, he did multiple documentaries about it! very good watch actually. But not the dunk you seem to think it is.
Its funny how the guy who's gimmick is demeaning women needed his mom to help him but it was also sad to see cause for a moment you could see a more childish side of him and realize that his mother was probably a big reason he grew up to be how he is
Romesh is way better at interviewing than he realises. This is a winning format already, because he creates an atmosphere in the room where everyone is having fun. It’s that perfect combination of humour and the freedom to go absolutely anywhere and guests to talk about absolutely anything. It’s convivial but the conversation is also unpredictable enough to be exciting.
I agree but I’d like to be more specific. He’s a natural podcaster. Podscasting is much more extensive ‘conversation’ than a half-hour ‘interrogation’, including the odd mutual tease, the odd deep-dive, having a laugh, and allowing the other person asking the host a question, etc. He does all of this very well and seems entirely at ease doing it.
I watched the documentary last night and honestly thought it was all terrifying. I'm a 17 year old male yet luckily I haven't been exposed to much of this. The fact that these terrible people are able to make millions is just horrifying. I am very grateful that Louis made this and I hope as many people see it as possible, particularly parents of young boys.
Dude, you are EXACTLY the kind of person that needs to see this. i'm 32 and am past being influenced by people like HS these days but thinking about how i felt when i was 17 i could have been one of those kids if id have grown up these days! By the time i was 18 i had awesome friends of both genders and i was much more balanced out keep an eye out for mates falling down the wrong rabbit holes (like the manosphere and tiktok conspiracies) and tell them they're being an idiot if you see them doing so! its good to see this comment from people your age, all the best mate
Refreshing to hear. Do you feel like you've missed direct exposure (exposed to a lot of peers who are influenced by this) or do you really not encounter it?
@Megan-rz4fc I generally just don't really encounter it. I've seen the odd clip of Andrew Tate and HS Tikkytokky but no one I know takes them seriously. I go to a mixed school so that probably has helped. I'm sure there would be more boys falling down the rabbit hole in all boys schools.
@Vacasa21 I honestly don't know a single person who has been influenced in such a way by these people. Although I go to a mixed school so I haven't seen what it's like in all boys schools, and I assume it is worse in younger years
I remember him also saying somewhere else about how ridiculous it is that he cares so much about having an expensive car as if that has anything to do with his worth as a person 😎
@c.leighx For me, Louis Theroux is a superstar, Andrew Tate, doesn't interest me at all, except for the joke Greta Thunberg made about him, that did make me laugh. I don't consider being good at click bait, an interesting talent.
So the kids think this HS kid owned Louis, yet all I saw in the documentary was him getting shouted at by his mum and wiping the floor with a towel because he made a mess and his mum wasn’t having it lol
It was the worst depiction of what the Red Pill is about. He didn't even interview Chris Williamson, The Guy eho wrote the rational male, the guy who wrote the book of numbers, multiple females who also speak on mens problems, etc etc. It didn't look at why these people are there, but it was purely "look at these weird dudes" totally missing the point it's a reaction to men not being resoected like they should.
Theroux is single-handedly dismantling all the patriarchal constructs that prop up mediocre men. He's showing men what healrhy masculinity looks like. Kudos!
patriarchal means having a father figure, go get a dictionary dude, then you can talk. and these men are raised by women, not saying they suck at it, but a society based on single mothers really fits the bill for everyone, not just a single gender, whatever that word means anyway these days.
Sincerely one of the best interviews I've watched in soo long. It was lovely and the laughs were infectious. It was genuinely just like being at a kitchen table with friends. I loved the banter. I love interviews, I love humans, I love this one 😹
Louis was wayyy funnier than I thought he would be, I always thought he seemed quite witty, but I genuinely laughed out loud at points. And Romesh seemed to be having the craic!
Louis Theroux is an icon,weird weekends was class I was still in school when I was watching it and over 20 years later I'm still watching his documentaries
In the documentary I really wish Louis had spoken to the women who had chosen to appear on Fresh & Fit to get humiliated how much were they paid, why did they do it? Did they regret it etc. And there needed to be more discussion on the impact of these men on women in general. Their voices were lost
I agree. I was so curious why these women would get on these humiliating shows. But what I got from the doc was that they could be cross-promoting their own business/OF and they don't care how they are treated as long as they get exposure.
There might have been more, but the conversations with women we did get are still chilling. The manager who got messaged mid conversation and was scared for her life, a girlfriend who was telling Louis that she expected something from her toxic boyfriend, the mum in the end who tried to get through to HS and annoyingly helped his son around the house, and you see here conflicted feelings of witnessing him being a complete shithrad but still caring.
Honestly so impressed to see Romesh speak out about the influence on his kids about how to treat women and materialism. A blessing in these uncertain times.
@jamiegodfray2801yeah, he's a fuckin weirdo. The fact that people are buying his act just reminds me how stupid people are. He is a 2d character. He plays a part. I hate him and I dont know why. I just get a seriously bad vibe off him
IMO HS talking down to Louis is on brand for Louis. He's an underdog, he steps into peoples worlds where he doesn't naturally belong and these people he meets act like they know everything and then they talk down to him all whilst the audience actually routes for and loves Louis. Also, we all see ourselves in him. All of us edit ourselves so it doesn't make Louis untrustworthy to us it just makes him more relatable.
Nah I think louis tried a bit too hard to provoke a reaction several times throughout it and gave a lot of loaded questions especially around the one sided poly relationship stuff, which is only their business. I don't see why louis thinks he can pass judgement on money and clout seeking behaviour from men but totally ignore the same behaviour from the women that hang around with these men for the same reasons.
@beatdizzy knowing a problem exists is never a bad thing, most men/boys are going to hear about these people regardless, so best inform everyone before they give little Timmy a tablet and let them loose on Twitch/Kick
I'm so happy Louis Theroux is back making documentary styled commentary, can we make a pact to keep googling Lou so he relevant stays ahead of tate and his weird con-men goons?
Watched Inside the Manosphere yesterday and Louis nailed it as usual. He always keeps his cool and with surgical precision asks the right questions at the right time. Those caricatures of a man he interviews in the documentary complain that Louis made them look bad simply cannot understand that they did it to themselves. Their incapability to self reflection is their worst enemy, They lack the capability to laugh to themselves, and make fun of themselves. They take their own BS too seriously and that´s what makes them ridiculous in front of everyone over 20. Louis on the other hand is the total opposite. Intelligent MAN with a sense of humour and who is not afraid to laugh to himself and does not take himself too seriously. Louis does not have to prove anything. Those BOYS in the documentary try to prove they are alpha men and fail so badly that it´s comical. Unfortunately some kids take them seriously. Anyway thank you Romesh for great interview. You got a new follower.
I just finished watching the latest documentary about the manosphere. Troubling stuff that petulantly arrogant low IQ misogynists have that much reach to younger boys via social media. They all come across as deeply insecure.
Don't use IQ as a measure. Trump uses it. That is enough to turn me off. I say that as someone who did a test for mensa a few times and did well. It's not really any measure of how a person actually is or how they act in the real world. It doesn't account for so many things. I prefer to just call them non-curious twats generally. Sheep I suppose.
@Vacasa21I wouldn't really say so. Religions that passed this type of stuff dominated almost all of the world. Bringing kids up to think this way from birth, with not much in the way of pushback for a very very long time
@dariorodriguezdeamericayou’re a little terrifyingly insane no? Do you think that was an appropriate response to someone talking about singing à silly song to an annoyed teenager?
@MsNatiBug no, not really, but thanks for asking. I like how psychopathic people are so easy to read, you're always defending the wrong cause acting like you have a clean slate, I wonder why the opposite doesn't happen, when someone does something that takes more than just talking entitled they all hide. You people crack me up. I feel you take my words as an attack to your group mind and you have to defend your interests and little ego, and clearly have no awareness at all on other people's feelings, as long as they are taught to you on "how to look human".
@d@dariorodriguezdeamericaweetheart. You’re in psychosis. You have never met me ànd àre speaking about what I “always do.” You’re hallucinating. You verbally assaulted someone for talking about singing à little silly song to their kid. You….. àre not only exhibiting psychotic traits, but LITERALLY psychopathic ones as well. Remember tism ànd psycjoapths àre neurologically almost the same. No neural pruning, No cognitive empathy, Always feeling like a victim, always excusing their assaults on people as “defenses..” This is terrifying. You’re a devastating example. Please in earnest show this exchange to à mental health professional TODAY. Do not take my word for anything. Show someone you can trust how your responded to à mom talking about how she sings à silly song to her tchild. You’re going end up in jail. You’re the textbook antisocial that always think all their violence is okay bc they always see themselves as à vicitm
Louis comes across brilliantly here. Very funny., dry witted, self depreciating and a beautifully dark sense of humour. I've watched him for decades and this is just great. Lovely interview Romesh 👏🏻 👌🏼
I just watched the documentary. These are not salesmen. My father, a salesman said to me that there is only really one difference between a salesman and a conman and that is the salesman had to believe in what he was selling. These guys are conmen. That’s all they are. Pushy, arrogant, insecure conmen. Being a man is about respect to others, these are children and it shows.
This podcast seeing Louis with his gaurd down but also talking so openly , is exactly the Louis we love ; and romesh did so well coming head to head with a titan in the medium . I love that
All the women in the doc looked like they had a gun to their head. There was a specific look of pain in their eyes and it almost looked like they mentally went into freeze. HS Mum... The level of cognitive dissonance.
Louis's Netflix doc Inside the Manosphere is nearly unwatchable. It’s not a knock on Louis’s filmmaking, but a reflection of the subjects. These aren't 'alphas'; they're just sad, lost, and dangerous men. Loui is great, this subject (doc) is a deadend tho. Love the show Romesh
@l@louB7321like his other docs - and this is no fault of his. You felt like there was some self awareness or good behind these people ie neo Nazi radical right religious family etc. But here it was the lowest common denominator. No moral code or Centre. They are who I thought they were. Sad, insecure, men, disguised as alpha, masculine, etc.. it takes strength vulnerable gentleness, and kindness to be good. They have none of these virtues. They are very insecure, very immature and no awareness of those things to put too fine a point on it.
Yes, perhaps an investigation into some of the things people are really concerned about would have been more honest. Even looking into the reasons these young men choose their way of life. Modern feminism & the demonisation of masculine men
@louB7321the people Louis interviewed were so disgusting in the manoaphere documentary. I have seen Louis Theroux interview criminals, cultists, murderers, they gave him more respect than these manosphere influencers. Plus I found it grotesque how these influencers use their followers to guide them in how to bully and harass others. Plus i couldnt believe how deluded they are and how impressionable their followers must be. Louis Theroux is so respectful and nice but these manosphere influencers were the bottom of the barrel
Search for things of interest 🤷♂️ People are so dangerously-lazy these days they rely on an algorithm designed by billionaires to capitalise on their laziness - it’s fkn wild
Its interesting that they make a scene about being live and not editing anything, but immediately clip up and post short, edited clips only showing what that want to be shown.
I think a lot of the algorithms favour live streams. Plus they can charge viewers to ask questions etc. They’ll do whatever the algorithms favour and whatever will make them the most money.
It’s funny because HS seems so desperate for attention and recognition, which feels like the complete opposite of the “I don’t care what people think” persona he tries to project. It’s a bit like the millionaire version of a chav driving a heavily modified, tacky Corsa down the street trying to impress people..... he genuinely seems to think it’s impressive.
I did Google Andrew Tate because I didn't know who he was and someone in my office was spouting anti-feminist nonsense.I had a long heated discussion with them. After the Google, I was horrified that my colleague was supporting a horrendous criminal like that..
Yeah. Do you believe women now when we say men àre dangerous ànd terrifying ànd it’s impossible to know at first glance which ones are good vs which ones are bad? I would never in a billion years consensually even speak to àn Andrew tate supporter, much less sleep with one . You think these types of guys tell the truth about their sociopolitical views BEFORE r*ping by fraud? We’ve been trying to tell you all that it’s a horror show out there.
Name one crime he has been convicted of. I literally typed into AI “Is Andrew Tate a criminal” and it said “No”. So tell us, why were you horrified, and what horrendous criminal acts has he committed?
@heathsolowhen typed into AI rbe first thing that comes up àre all the crimes he’s accused of and charged with. Human trafficking ànd r*pe. Also tax evasion.
@heathsolomost people that commit crimes are not convicted of them. That’s….. How crime works. Lmfao. If everyone or even any significant portion of people that committed crimes were convicted or them….. There wouldn’t be much crime àt all. All the criminals would be in jail. But that’s not how reality works.
Great interview, The Manosphere is a hard watch really, these misogynist men in the doc are vile, Louis does a great job as usual of letting them expose themselves.
The way they talk about everything like it's slightly ridiculous and mystifying is perfect for undercutting the aggression and hatred of the manopshere's philosophy ❤
As a woman I was laughing so hard when HS was acting like a little boy in front of his mother 😂 it was always clear to me that Louis had more masculinity than all of these men combined.. at some point I even thought this HS character had some slight mental handicap because I couldn't quite believe that they were so immature for their age. If they were 14 I would understand but they are way older and act like 14 year old boys.. it made me actually a bit sad and when I saw most of them lacked a father figure it all made sense to me.. I feel bad for them, I hope the grow out of this mentality and become real men who are able to love and be genuinely loved at some point ❤
Watched the Manosphere one yesterday. Love Louis Theroux but the content of that documentary is horrid. I find it so concerning and made me very scared for the future of my daughter. Those guys belong in prison.
They’re grifters, abusers and highly projecting their own insecurities. Very dangerous for anyone who buys into that though not realising they’re just being used
@jesclifford88 you do realize that most of their content is them responding/commenting on things women post about men online? Thats the one aspect no ones talking about . Lol
25:26 I love how they were 'owning' him by saying that he was owned by a certain group who controls everything. Despite doing a documentary exposing a certain country's 'oppression' of their neighbour.
I'm actually happy he never interviewed the Tates. This somehow made them seem irrelevant, which I love!
They refused to be on it. First they asked to be paid for the interview, which Theroux refused, and then they used their Google search results as justification to say Theroux wasn't relevant any longer. **snort laugh** Edited to add, I also love how irrelevant it made them seem.
Yh we all watched the same video mate
It's a good job you're here to tell us this stuff, it's not like folk ever find out this kinda thing in interviews etc.
We see eniugh of the., we have heard all that they have to say, we know what they do.. so, yiu are so right! Makes tgem seem.. because they are.. irrelevant. Their moment is over. Theyll need to reinvent now. Their next thing will probably be feigning being sorry and seeing the error of their ways
They’ve always been irrelevant, woke lefties just didn’t have anything to grasp to so they decided to focus on this “misogyny” epidemic that doesn’t really exist rather than do anything productive like go after the grooming gangs you have in the UK.
Boys trying to jiggle their money in front of a man who knows that real money folds.
Boys trying to show off their Lambos in front of a man who dazzles everyone in a Fiat
@domgluhweinLambos, that depreciate even before they are off the lot, and one accident can cost tens of thousands to repair. Plus, they are as ugly as the owner is on the inside.
Best comment
@domgluhweinhaha, so true! Louis doesn’t need a fancy car to hide behind 💪🤣🤩
Loved this interview! So interesting. Wish it was longer. 😊
😂😂😂
Just commenting to boost anything with Louis Theroux in the algorithm, don't mind me
Your comments don't jiggle jiggle
❤
Good call, #me too.
@NoventaSportthey fold
Fabulous 😊
Louie was the perfect person to do this documentary because it’s nearly impossible to insult someone that has no ego lol. He’s just so calm and nonchalant in front of these ridiculous characters.
He has interviewed so many obnoxious people. These manchildren are no threat.
@howareyou857 Manchildren😂
@howareyou857 It was genuinely funny to see them expect Louis to be intimidated given all the genuinely dangerous situations he and his crew have been in. These people did zero research into who they were being interviewed by.
It was Louis's pathetic insecurity that lead him to do this in the first place.
Louis didn't go into the difficulty that the families of these boys, that are being brainwashed, are facing. And how women really feel. I think this deserves a part 2
Googled Louis Theroux just now you know…..for the graph-maxing 😂
Lolol
I'm going to do it too
😂
me too B)
With Theroux, he didn't have to say anything to any of them to make them look pathetic, he mostly listened.
Things come and go, and it seem like a long time from now, but in five years it will probably be forgotten, in ten Alpha males won't exist, and their kids will look back at them and laugh and it will seem unbelievably, like people saying groovy and far out chick
1 that's literally an interview style.
2 you can do this with any sub-culture or movement, just film them for 5-10 hours then clip the weirdest or awkwardest or craziest statements. it's also telling who he picked to represent manosphere. sneako did homo porn, probably not straight. myron gaines is an actual fed who worked for dhs and federal government, both now pushing questionable anti-semetic slop online.
👏 I’m actually stealing this take for future conversations. Bravo!
@jabba-the-narcit's nothing new, Google Neil Strauss and Ross Jeffries, this has been going on for decades, it's just the internet makes everything bigger now.
He made himself look kind of pathetic believing half of the stuff that they said, they’re intentionally brash and controversial… it’s the whole reason he’s interviewing them, because that persona is what brings attention. They’re playing Louis like an absolute fiddle….
The first six minutes of this was two men analysing the pleasure induced by making lasagna... The manosphere is going to implode.
😂😂
😂😂😂
This made me laugh so hard! Thank you!
Also getting an apron as a gift. They will combust 😂
@tamarjoosten8907glad you got a laugh from this! 😂
This is such a great conversation. What healthy masculinity looks like.
Feminised betaboys
No.
It would be one thing if Louis Theroux was just kind of a quiet man, which he is entitled to be, but being a cuck, being a kapo to his own gender, selling out his own gender to rehab his image after Jimmy Saville (who was a friend of his, look this up), that's not really healthy masculinity as far as I can see.
Also the term "toxic masculinity"...I think its a term feminists created to attack men and masculinity. I'm not sure I'm a fan of this term, in the sense of, it comes with connotations and implied assumptions I'm not sure I agree with or that I think are correct.
You mean men who don’t criticise feminism?
Exactly and those clowns would call these two beta
Oh no!😩😩😩😩😩
Love seeing two men laughing so much about silly things. It's a beautiful conversation.
❤❤
Hearing Louis Theroux say “clavicular is jerstermaxxing” hit me like whiplash.
I'm just going to go ahead and presume that those are real words.
Sounds like some kind of historical empress.
Really spikes the cortisol
Two things - 1. Romesh is an A-Grade interviewer, really perceptive and insightful questions. 2. I had no idea Louis was so funny, straight up hilarious. Great chat.
100%
You watched his shows and didn’t realise he was funny?
Oh wait were you on one?… that would make sense 😂
Yeah. Interesting song Louis as an interviewee, and Romesh- a great interviewer
I absolutely LOVED THE ENDING of this documentary, the guy's mum babying and cleaning up after him. Wonderful 😂
I was wondering how he is the way he is with his mom allegedly being against all the -isms and then realize at that point… oh boymom… there we go
Unfortunately I think that was him poking fun at Harvey from the rumours
@qwertyuiopasiii2822he is a perfect example to prove his point that women can’t raise kids
@paulinebuckenham6699 idk who Harvey is or what the rumours are but it does make more sense to me that that part was meant to be a joke on HS' part. It would be weird for him to act like that knowing it's being streamed to his own audience if he wasn't in on a joke
@kiko3971Katie Price son
Louis has such a natural comedic sensibility
Happy to report Louis Theroux is out-trending Andrew Tate on Google Trends currently 😂 22:22
Who is Karl Pilkington and why have I just wasted five minutes of my life listening to some of his cretinous thoughts on Channel 4?
@tony-e3v6r He was such good friends with him, he did multiple documentaries about it! very good watch actually. But not the dunk you seem to think it is.
But what about king Louis?
Thanks for this wonderful information my friend 👏👏👏
Honestly thank god. I was starting to think we were outnumbered 😂
Louis surely didnt get owned... HS literally had to ask his mummy to be there.
"I'm not owned! Louis is owned!" HS screams through tears as his mummy asks if he wants some juice
Its funny how the guy who's gimmick is demeaning women needed his mom to help him but it was also sad to see cause for a moment you could see a more childish side of him and realize that his mother was probably a big reason he grew up to be how he is
That mother needs a firm slap for allowing her son to be an obnoxious turd.
And I guess his mom was also fine with him being on the run from the law? Tells a lot
The question on Israel stopped me in my tracks actually. Was a bit disappointed he didn't answer it.
If this interview was 9 hours long - I'd have listened for 9 hours. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Fr fr it’s a crime for any Louis episode to be less than 3 hours
You literally just stated you spend your life watching somebody else live their’s.
Louis Theroux on taskmaster would be incredible
Brilliant suggestion 👏👏
Unfortunately the allocation of straight white men now it's on Channel 4 is like 1 or 2 max per season, so will take a while to get him on there.
@kygo🙄🙄
@SarahlouisetattoosI know, it's a shame, I wish they weren't so racist and sexist with their cast selection.
@kygo weirdo
Romesh is way better at interviewing than he realises. This is a winning format already, because he creates an atmosphere in the room where everyone is having fun. It’s that perfect combination of humour and the freedom to go absolutely anywhere and guests to talk about absolutely anything. It’s convivial but the conversation is also unpredictable enough to be exciting.
Sucking on someone's sphincter is now classed as a good interview?
I agree but I’d like to be more specific. He’s a natural podcaster. Podscasting is much more extensive ‘conversation’ than a half-hour ‘interrogation’, including the odd mutual tease, the odd deep-dive, having a laugh, and allowing the other person asking the host a question, etc. He does all of this very well and seems entirely at ease doing it.
Yeh he’s super chilled and not trying hard
Who's Ramesh? 🤔
I’m dyslexic and you, my friend, are a pedant.
The silence in his Docs are masterful. He has developed that into an art
An art called editing...
@redscratch585 as long as it works
I watched the documentary last night and honestly thought it was all terrifying. I'm a 17 year old male yet luckily I haven't been exposed to much of this. The fact that these terrible people are able to make millions is just horrifying. I am very grateful that Louis made this and I hope as many people see it as possible, particularly parents of young boys.
God thank you for making this comment because this doc made me feel like all teenage boys are into this
Dude, you are EXACTLY the kind of person that needs to see this.
i'm 32 and am past being influenced by people like HS these days but thinking about how i felt when i was 17 i could have been one of those kids if id have grown up these days! By the time i was 18 i had awesome friends of both genders and i was much more balanced out
keep an eye out for mates falling down the wrong rabbit holes (like the manosphere and tiktok conspiracies) and tell them they're being an idiot if you see them doing so!
its good to see this comment from people your age, all the best mate
Refreshing to hear. Do you feel like you've missed direct exposure (exposed to a lot of peers who are influenced by this) or do you really not encounter it?
@Megan-rz4fc I generally just don't really encounter it. I've seen the odd clip of Andrew Tate and HS Tikkytokky but no one I know takes them seriously. I go to a mixed school so that probably has helped. I'm sure there would be more boys falling down the rabbit hole in all boys schools.
@Vacasa21 I honestly don't know a single person who has been influenced in such a way by these people. Although I go to a mixed school so I haven't seen what it's like in all boys schools, and I assume it is worse in younger years
he's so effortlessly funny. truly a national treasure
Sure thing bot
@oc5879 lol.
@LucyGem98 LOL you should bot your channel.
yeah, don't go stealing him now for the crown and the sell a copy to the arabs.
Louis telling Andrew Tate he is more relevant with stats is pretty gangster ngl 😭
I remember him also saying somewhere else about how ridiculous it is that he cares so much about having an expensive car as if that has anything to do with his worth as a person 😎
@c.leighx For me, Louis Theroux is a superstar, Andrew Tate, doesn't interest me at all, except for the joke Greta Thunberg made about him, that did make me laugh. I don't consider being good at click bait, an interesting talent.
@outoftheblue_UK that's it for me too, Tate is fun to joke about and so is Greta.....extreme people (on both sides) should be ridiculed.
@c.leighx Do you think people are not judged on their wealth, income, & social class?
@jayvander7156 you think andrew tate has social class lmao
So the kids think this HS kid owned Louis, yet all I saw in the documentary was him getting shouted at by his mum and wiping the floor with a towel because he made a mess and his mum wasn’t having it lol
It would have been something on the stream HS was filming.
HS can't take credit for any "owning" someone when he's literally being guided by his chat's prompts
@AgentPineapple41the definition of audience capture.
It was the worst depiction of what the Red Pill is about.
He didn't even interview Chris Williamson, The Guy eho wrote the rational male, the guy who wrote the book of numbers, multiple females who also speak on mens problems, etc etc.
It didn't look at why these people are there, but it was purely "look at these weird dudes" totally missing the point it's a reaction to men not being resoected like they should.
But of course, the kinds of people who idolise HS also have their mums clean up after them. He's a man of the people. Man-baby people.
Theroux is single-handedly dismantling all the patriarchal constructs that prop up mediocre men. He's showing men what healrhy masculinity looks like. Kudos!
yeah uh except it had all collapsed by the time he turned up
SO being a ugly dork is what a man is lol
@FelicityQuackenbush
He’s ongoing.
#jimmysaville
@deeznutz8320 your level of intellect really shines through 👏👏👏
patriarchal means having a father figure, go get a dictionary dude, then you can talk. and these men are raised by women, not saying they suck at it, but a society based on single mothers really fits the bill for everyone, not just a single gender, whatever that word means anyway these days.
Louis Theroux is a national treasure.
He backed up his paymaster at the time Jimmy Saville
@Chinesemanchocolateshowif you say so Martin. Your parents must have been some numpties to have raised you.
First time viewer.
Damn, you guys are meant to be together.
That had me in stitches.
Great guest. Great podcast, Thanks,
Sincerely one of the best interviews I've watched in soo long. It was lovely and the laughs were infectious. It was genuinely just like being at a kitchen table with friends. I loved the banter. I love interviews, I love humans, I love this one 😹
I love Louis Theroux laughing at his own jokes.
Louis' description of lasagne as a 'single, physical unit' like a bricklayer😂🖤
Romesh is genuinely so talented, I'm not even sure he knows how talented he is. Brilliant
Nah he interrupts too much.
Great interview with a person who's legend will outlast Tate's by miles...
Louis was wayyy funnier than I thought he would be, I always thought he seemed quite witty, but I genuinely laughed out loud at points. And Romesh seemed to be having the craic!
Having the craic u have to be Irish? Only because I am an I say it all the time lol.if I'm wrong sorry just guessing
@camillekelly3341 you are indeed correct! 😊
Listen to some old Adam and Joe stuff with Louis. All friends from school, all have a right laugh together
@camillekelly3341 We say it in Scotland too, its mainly come from Irish cousins though 😂
his comedic timing is brilliant
I could listen to Louis reading an hour's worth of those letters and responses 😂
The whole interview was great but the last segment was outstanding 😂
Louis Theroux is an icon,weird weekends was class I was still in school when I was watching it and over 20 years later I'm still watching his documentaries
Louis needs to do a lookmaxxing doc as a sequel to the manosphere
In the documentary I really wish Louis had spoken to the women who had chosen to appear on Fresh & Fit to get humiliated how much were they paid, why did they do it? Did they regret it etc. And there needed to be more discussion on the impact of these men on women in general. Their voices were lost
I agree. I was so curious why these women would get on these humiliating shows. But what I got from the doc was that they could be cross-promoting their own business/OF and they don't care how they are treated as long as they get exposure.
There might have been more, but the conversations with women we did get are still chilling. The manager who got messaged mid conversation and was scared for her life, a girlfriend who was telling Louis that she expected something from her toxic boyfriend, the mum in the end who tried to get through to HS and annoyingly helped his son around the house, and you see here conflicted feelings of witnessing him being a complete shithrad but still caring.
Women love the humiliation. It turns them on.
Honestly so impressed to see Romesh speak out about the influence on his kids about how to treat women and materialism. A blessing in these uncertain times.
Couldn't agree more :)
Cringe , hardly spoke out. He just didn’t have the balls to say he likes Ed and HS
Such an airhead comment. You might as well praise someone for saying "rape isnt great, is it?" Stating the obvious isnt worthy of a clap
@georgezb LOL these are all bots. The BBC and co are dying
@oc5879yeah, certainly seems like it
Louis is so legitimately funny
I didn't think I could like Louis more, but here we are 😂
he funded by isreal
@jamiegodfray2801sounds like his documentary was pretty opposite of being paid by Israel 🤔 unless they are paying him to trash Israel
@jamiegodfray2801 What makes you think that?
@jamiegodfray2801haven’t seen his doc on Israeli settlers then?
@jamiegodfray2801yeah, he's a fuckin weirdo. The fact that people are buying his act just reminds me how stupid people are. He is a 2d character. He plays a part. I hate him and I dont know why. I just get a seriously bad vibe off him
"Cooked" Louis absolutely rinsed them "influencers" some documentary that was! Lad 👍🏻
I actually felt sad when this ended! You two look like you’ve been best mates forever. So many laugh out loud moments. Thank you!
IMO HS talking down to Louis is on brand for Louis. He's an underdog, he steps into peoples worlds where he doesn't naturally belong and these people he meets act like they know everything and then they talk down to him all whilst the audience actually routes for and loves Louis. Also, we all see ourselves in him. All of us edit ourselves so it doesn't make Louis untrustworthy to us it just makes him more relatable.
True. Good summary.
Agreed. I think it's a technique he uses that he's found gets people to open up more.
no that was absolutely justified by HS
@cupoftea2957 So glad that made sense to someone - I was worried I articulated that poorly 😅
Nah I think louis tried a bit too hard to provoke a reaction several times throughout it and gave a lot of loaded questions especially around the one sided poly relationship stuff, which is only their business. I don't see why louis thinks he can pass judgement on money and clout seeking behaviour from men but totally ignore the same behaviour from the women that hang around with these men for the same reasons.
Have no clue who HSTikkyTokky is. Enjoyed this interview a lot. Thanks.
I just watched a video of him and Louis and I still don’t know who he is
This is kind of the problem with giving these people a platform.
@beatdizzy knowing a problem exists is never a bad thing, most men/boys are going to hear about these people regardless, so best inform everyone before they give little Timmy a tablet and let them loose on Twitch/Kick
Me meither, the name is so silly, I thought it was a madeup character 😂
When romesh started saying it I thought it was some lingo about TikTok that I hadn’t heard before
I'm so happy Louis Theroux is back making documentary styled commentary, can we make a pact to keep googling Lou so he relevant stays ahead of tate and his weird con-men goons?
Yes 😅
Going to google him right now just for this haha
Good idea!! 👍
Googled him once today already
Goon means something else now ☹
Watched Inside the Manosphere yesterday and Louis nailed it as usual. He always keeps his cool and with surgical precision asks the right questions at the right time. Those caricatures of a man he interviews in the documentary complain that Louis made them look bad simply cannot understand that they did it to themselves. Their incapability to self reflection is their worst enemy, They lack the capability to laugh to themselves, and make fun of themselves. They take their own BS too seriously and that´s what makes them ridiculous in front of everyone over 20. Louis on the other hand is the total opposite. Intelligent MAN with a sense of humour and who is not afraid to laugh to himself and does not take himself too seriously. Louis does not have to prove anything. Those BOYS in the documentary try to prove they are alpha men and fail so badly that it´s comical. Unfortunately some kids take them seriously.
Anyway thank you Romesh for great interview. You got a new follower.
Spot on!
Not sure who is in charge of Romesh's guest list, but they're crushing it!
I just finished watching the latest documentary about the manosphere. Troubling stuff that petulantly arrogant low IQ misogynists have that much reach to younger boys via social media. They all come across as deeply insecure.
Don't use IQ as a measure. Trump uses it. That is enough to turn me off. I say that as someone who did a test for mensa a few times and did well. It's not really any measure of how a person actually is or how they act in the real world. It doesn't account for so many things. I prefer to just call them non-curious twats generally. Sheep I suppose.
Created by feminists
It's nothing new. It's been the norm for thousands of years
@skindred1888the level of reach is new though
@Vacasa21I wouldn't really say so. Religions that passed this type of stuff dominated almost all of the world. Bringing kids up to think this way from birth, with not much in the way of pushback for a very very long time
I love jiggle jiggle, I sing it to my 15yr old son, he doesn't appreciate me singing it to him.
then stop harassing your own kid, you douchebag. you psychos love to inflict pain and say its cute when done to loved ones.
@dariorodriguezdeamerica🤣🤣🤣🤣 you should seek help.
@dariorodriguezdeamericayou’re a little terrifyingly insane no?
Do you think that was an appropriate response to someone talking about singing à silly song to an annoyed teenager?
@MsNatiBug no, not really, but thanks for asking. I like how psychopathic people are so easy to read, you're always defending the wrong cause acting like you have a clean slate, I wonder why the opposite doesn't happen, when someone does something that takes more than just talking entitled they all hide. You people crack me up. I feel you take my words as an attack to your group mind and you have to defend your interests and little ego, and clearly have no awareness at all on other people's feelings, as long as they are taught to you on "how to look human".
@d@dariorodriguezdeamericaweetheart.
You’re in psychosis.
You have never met me ànd àre speaking about what I “always do.”
You’re hallucinating.
You verbally assaulted someone for talking about singing à little silly song to their kid.
You….. àre not only exhibiting psychotic traits, but LITERALLY psychopathic ones as well.
Remember tism ànd psycjoapths àre neurologically almost the same.
No neural pruning, No cognitive empathy, Always feeling like a victim, always excusing their assaults on people as “defenses..”
This is terrifying. You’re a devastating example.
Please in earnest show this exchange to à mental health professional TODAY.
Do not take my word for anything.
Show someone you can trust how your responded to à mom talking about how she sings à silly song to her tchild.
You’re going end up in jail.
You’re the textbook antisocial that always think all their violence is okay bc they always see themselves as à vicitm
Louis is funnier than most recognised conedians. What a fantastic interview!
A bit of British banter 👌🔥
Louis comes across brilliantly here. Very funny., dry witted, self depreciating and a beautifully dark sense of humour. I've watched him for decades and this is just great. Lovely interview Romesh 👏🏻 👌🏼
I just watched the documentary. These are not salesmen. My father, a salesman said to me that there is only really one difference between a salesman and a conman and that is the salesman had to believe in what he was selling. These guys are conmen. That’s all they are. Pushy, arrogant, insecure conmen. Being a man is about respect to others, these are children and it shows.
Conmen are good at sales
💯hopefully the tax man will catch these dumb boys!
@imtbi nope, they are good at tricking folk who dont' pay attention. they are really bad at actual sales.
Great point - conmen indeed
All the best lasagne chat.
Theroux interviewing these guys just exposed how insecure they really are. all those awkward silenced made them really scramble to explain themselves
Yes that’s what Theroux does, uses his arrogance and superior intellect to humiliate and shame others, which is why he’s no better than they are imo
“No better than them” 😂 you are a clown
@R-ec9bnand you’re a parrot using that dumb term
He’s making money just like they are?
So everyone who makes money is the same? Wow please keep typing so you look like an even bigger clown
Louis has perfected the art of saying nothing. He doesn’t fear an uncomfortable silence, It’s almost a super power.
That last section with Louis’ letter to HHC and the replies was absolutely brilliant 😂😂😂
Louis you’re a bloody legend mate
This podcast seeing Louis with his gaurd down but also talking so openly , is exactly the Louis we love ; and romesh did so well coming head to head with a titan in the medium . I love that
Reading that letter was the bravest thing King Lou E has done yet.
All the women in the doc looked like they had a gun to their head. There was a specific look of pain in their eyes and it almost looked like they mentally went into freeze. HS Mum... The level of cognitive dissonance.
The spouses were the best part. Could’ve done the whole programme on them.
💯 💯 💯
but they show how strong they are to do the effort no matter how hard to cash in the sheckels.
They're seen as trophies and possessions than people by these "men"
I think money is the issue, if they werent making money the women, mums or gfs, wouldn't be there, right?
Louis stressing about the Ed Sheeran thing throughout the conversation is so real 😭😭
I could probably listen to these two conversing every day and not get bored.
What a cracking hour and a half spent with two absolute fking legends.
Calm down
Louis's Netflix doc Inside the Manosphere is nearly unwatchable. It’s not a knock on Louis’s filmmaking, but a reflection of the subjects. These aren't 'alphas'; they're just sad, lost, and dangerous men. Loui is great, this subject (doc) is a deadend tho. Love the show Romesh
I hope it gets a lot of watches so that more families with boys/young men can openly mock these guys knowledgably.
what's the worst thing that stood out from Manosphere ?
@l@louB7321like his other docs - and this is no fault of his. You felt like there was some self awareness or good behind these people ie neo Nazi radical right religious family etc. But here it was the lowest common denominator. No moral code or Centre. They are who I thought they were. Sad, insecure, men, disguised as alpha, masculine, etc.. it takes strength vulnerable gentleness, and kindness to be good. They have none of these virtues. They are very insecure, very immature and no awareness of those things to put too fine a point on it.
Yes, perhaps an investigation into some of the things people are really concerned about would have been more honest. Even looking into the reasons these young men choose their way of life. Modern feminism & the demonisation of masculine men
@louB7321the people Louis interviewed were so disgusting in the manoaphere documentary. I have seen Louis Theroux interview criminals, cultists, murderers, they gave him more respect than these manosphere influencers.
Plus I found it grotesque how these influencers use their followers to guide them in how to bully and harass others.
Plus i couldnt believe how deluded they are and how impressionable their followers must be.
Louis Theroux is so respectful and nice but these manosphere influencers were the bottom of the barrel
I know this is going to be great when it starts with a 5min bit on lasagne.
The king Louis HHC section was the best thing I’ve seen in a while 😂
That was podcast gold , loved how lou was roasting rom so much , but then felt bad for it. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Great interview. 😂😂😂
Socially awkward/socially anxious but endearing
Louis Theroux WHAT A LEGEND ❤
That paisley Barbour shirt is fire.
Louis sense of humour is brilliant. He meets some absolute mental people.
Sesh With Romesh was right there as a title
Finally I can stop scrolling for something to watch.
Search for things of interest 🤷♂️ People are so dangerously-lazy these days they rely on an algorithm designed by billionaires to capitalise on their laziness - it’s fkn wild
@nathana.m.1622 Wasn't that serious bro
@nathana.m.1622True, but also shush.
Confirmation bias
I agree, Louis is courageous. He asks probing, sometimes disarming questions with such genuine interest he hits gold. 😅
That's the funniest I've ever seen Louis on a podcast, his real-time self examination and self reprimanding bits are hilarious
He really is just such a funny dude…brilliant comedic timing ❤
Its interesting that they make a scene about being live and not editing anything, but immediately clip up and post short, edited clips only showing what that want to be shown.
I think a lot of the algorithms favour live streams. Plus they can charge viewers to ask questions etc. They’ll do whatever the algorithms favour and whatever will make them the most money.
Louis is a real one, national treasure
It’s funny because HS seems so desperate for attention and recognition, which feels like the complete opposite of the “I don’t care what people think” persona he tries to project. It’s a bit like the millionaire version of a chav driving a heavily modified, tacky Corsa down the street trying to impress people..... he genuinely seems to think it’s impressive.
He was gross! At least his mothers proud🤢
In the media space Louis is a juggernaut! He is so fearless . Love his work
I love being about to hear the whole crew laughing in the background of these. Louis is a funny guy.
I find it a bit irritating tbh! He’s not THAT funny!! 😮
I did Google Andrew Tate because I didn't know who he was and someone in my office was spouting anti-feminist nonsense.I had a long heated discussion with them. After the Google, I was horrified that my colleague was supporting a horrendous criminal like that..
Yeah.
Do you believe women now when we say men àre dangerous ànd terrifying ànd it’s impossible to know at first glance which ones are good vs which ones are bad?
I would never in a billion years consensually even speak to àn Andrew tate supporter, much less sleep with one .
You think these types of guys tell the truth about their sociopolitical views BEFORE r*ping by fraud?
We’ve been trying to tell you all that it’s a horror show out there.
Name one crime he has been convicted of. I literally typed into AI “Is Andrew Tate a criminal” and it said “No”. So tell us, why were you horrified, and what horrendous criminal acts has he committed?
@heathsolowhen typed into AI rbe first thing that comes up àre all the crimes he’s accused of and charged with.
Human trafficking ànd r*pe. Also tax evasion.
@MsNatiBug So convicted of none of them?
@heathsolomost people that commit crimes are not convicted of them.
That’s…..
How crime works. Lmfao.
If everyone or even any significant portion of people that committed crimes were convicted or them…..
There wouldn’t be much crime àt all. All the criminals would be in jail.
But that’s not how reality works.
These two vibe well together
I’m pleased Romesh’s podcast is gaining traction. It’s great stuff!
This interview is absolutely amazing - like you’re listening in to a good catch up between mates. 10/10 lads.
Watched Louis from his start on tv. What a great bloke. He’s a master at what he does.
One of the most enjoyable interviews I'm seen in some time!
Great interview, The Manosphere is a hard watch really, these misogynist men in the doc are vile, Louis does a great job as usual of letting them expose themselves.
*boys* not men
yeah, and the men hating women that profit from it, terrible to watch, so much plastic!
Louis, I'm 50 next year, jiggle jiggle is still my ringtone for my sister calling. Legend! 🤣
The hip hop connection stuff was the best thing ive heard for 'time' as King Louis would say.
The last ten minutes 😂
The way they talk about everything like it's slightly ridiculous and mystifying is perfect for undercutting the aggression and hatred of the manopshere's philosophy ❤
As a woman I was laughing so hard when HS was acting like a little boy in front of his mother 😂 it was always clear to me that Louis had more masculinity than all of these men combined.. at some point I even thought this HS character had some slight mental handicap because I couldn't quite believe that they were so immature for their age. If they were 14 I would understand but they are way older and act like 14 year old boys.. it made me actually a bit sad and when I saw most of them lacked a father figure it all made sense to me.. I feel bad for them, I hope the grow out of this mentality and become real men who are able to love and be genuinely loved at some point ❤
Watched the Manosphere one yesterday. Love Louis Theroux but the content of that documentary is horrid. I find it so concerning and made me very scared for the future of my daughter. Those guys belong in prison.
😢 l haven't watched it ...not sure l want to now😮
@louB7321Definitely a must watch. Need to be aware of what is out there. The more we know, the more we can protect the people who are being targeted.
They’re grifters, abusers and highly projecting their own insecurities. Very dangerous for anyone who buys into that though not realising they’re just being used
@jesclifford88 you do realize that most of their content is them responding/commenting on things women post about men online? Thats the one aspect no ones talking about . Lol
@island97 Poor you, baby boy, those awful women, they hurt you so badly...
😂 got an ad for a manosphere podcast whilst watching this.
is manosphere bad?
@hugevagiine watch Louis’ documentary and decide for yourself 👍🏻
@hugevagiineLouis was great he just let those fools show their true colours which was hilarious as they are all so dumb all made by Andrew Tate🤦🏻♀️
😮😂
louis absolutely blew these guys out the water
Harrison Sullivan "wheres my juice mummy"
Romesh, please can you get your mum to do the outro? I think a lot of us would really enjoy it. Thanks and love you xx
“You’ve ended Louis Theroux” you can’t end Louis. Louis is omnipotent
In those days, English rappers had fake American accents
I already commented when I was half way through, but now I’ve finished this ep it just gets better and better. Hilarious 🤣🤣
25:26 I love how they were 'owning' him by saying that he was owned by a certain group who controls everything. Despite doing a documentary exposing a certain country's 'oppression' of their neighbour.
“HS Tikie Tokie” killlssss me 😂😂😂
Podcasts can be so serious so I love hearing Romesh laugh with the guests.
we need more laughter ! funny stuff ...it's like we're starved of it these days 😮
