I think Paul Rudd hit the nail on the head in his episode when he said "You're a really good interviewer, you don't even need the hot sauce." And he's absolutely right.
Little do they know, Sean gets all his info through sheer violence and intimidation. He has a lead, he tracks them down, then he force feeds them The Last Dab until they give up the info.
@@biazacha "now that you have eaten all of these spicy wings, can you tell us a little about how it felt when you pushed your best friend down a 50m cliff in sixth grade?"
Sean’s first question: What’s your favorite color? Sean after the celeb has eaten da bomb: Do you believe in god? The celeb: wh-what? Sean: I heard you have a rocky relationship with your father, care to talk about that? The celeb: h-help me Sean: Last night, you slept at the Cecil hotel and watched tv till 3:00 am and ate pizza leftovers. The celeb: THAT’S NOT EVEN A QUESTION-
@@Qarth56 yeah I gathered as much. I was even thinking they went back to shit before google and found old magazines interviews or something... (yeah alot these people were around before google was a thing)
You could tell that Sean instantly became Anthony Mackie’s favorite interviewer of all time. When you ask someone about what’s obviously one of their favorite hobbies and give them the floor to just go on about it, it really stands out to that person. Best interviewer in the business IMO
I mean especially for Mackie who’s had to do the Marvel press tours and get asked “how did you get your start” or “what is your favorite superhero” or “what was it like rapping with Eminem” over and over and over again. It’s gotta be exhausting. And just letting him talk about something he’s passionate about without deriding or interrupting must be like a breath of fresh air for Mackie. That’s why I love Sean and why so many people he interviews love him too.
@@AugustBreak that's what makes it personable and he's built this foundation of a medium. It's great. Sean and his team are world class. Now get Messi and Ronaldo on here!
its what happens when you ask someone something they want to talk about instead of what causes headlines,. I mean anthony talking about cooking fish wont make massive headlines but it certainly makes the interview that much better to watch
@@TheCrazyGuyUpstairs Nardwuard is great and all. He does an even better job of research. But Sean turns that research into a great questions. Nardwuard usually just says "what does [childhood memory] remind you of."
Pain is an equalizer. When your mouth is on fire, you hardly have the focus to put up a personality, so it's easier to just be yourself and focus on answering the questions instead.
Never underestimate the power of a great question -- makes you feel seen, understood, and cared for. Not just a great show for the wings and the responses, but great show for the questions and interactions. Sean Evans may be the most underrated interviewer alive.
What's so impressive is that the questions aren't just "oh look I found this random piece of information to shock you that I found it" but it's finding ways to shape that deep research into genuinely interesting and relevant questions. Always so good!
I always get giddy when the guests like a question Sean asks! Sometimes they're on a massive promo wheel and it must be exhausting to have the same questions asked again and again and then they get a question they'd actually love to answer and it shows in their face! Hot Ones is so wholesome despite the brutal wings
Ive said it and ill say it again. Sean was born to be an interviewer. Like the undertaker said, they always answer the same questions over and over again, but sean spices it up and asks out of the box questions. Must be refreshing for these celebrities not having to just put yourself on repeat mode
All they do is ask their agent "who raised ______?" Then they phone that person and flatter them into giving information on questions that would reflect positively on the Stars character, and that the guardian spills their guts because they want the public to see the good in people in a world that wants bad. Journalists know this but they know good doesn't sell. Media is trash except this excerpt.
@@micahhall9579 Really though, its a huge production, they just call a few people be like eh man we will give you X amount for some good info on Y. His last point doesnt make sense though. News today isnt about actual journalism its just clickbait shit to keep you engaged/mad to keep watching or whatever but that has nothing to do with this.
@@RevengeAvenger why do other people do the same thing calling there agent the people that he interviewed say themselves that no one ever asks these questions
Sean has to be the greatest interviewer of all time; I've never heard anyone get nearly as many compliments on the questions asked as this guy. I think every talk show host and interviewer needs to study this guy.
@@prestonpersonal yeah but I'd say Joe is in another category he's more adult oriented where as Shaun keeps it light so all ages can enjoy without subjecting the younger viewers to vulgarity and to many adult concepts.
Joe Rogan is a great host because he is thoughtful and intelligent, and knows how to read his guest and keep the show flowing, a talent shared by other comics, such as Craig Ferguson, both are very entertaining to watch. But none of those guys gets the compliments the way Sean does; that guy is just a master of asking the right questions and doing his homework like no other.
Honestly, as an interviewer, I think his ability to make sure that the GUEST actually HAS FUN is soooo underrated!!! He does such an amazing job because the interview is SO much more dynamic when the person being interviewed is intrigued by the questions and clearly is excited to answer!
I've never really been a fan of watching the more unknown celebrities, but I always appreciate these complication videos that show it doesn't matter how big the celebrity is, Sean will research the hell out of you.
The fact that everyone always seems to be enjoying themselves and then getting surprised by the level of questions is a testament to how well done these shows are. Kudos to all involved it really shows through on the screen
Well he deserves It thou. Nothing better than make a good job and be complimented about. I love to give and take compliments when the job is well made xD
the face the undertaker makes when Sean asks him about his commando days is amazing. the sheer shock on his face that someone not only know but would ask about truly makes him happy.
You can see how the guests just light up and completely change when they get a question they've never heard before, and that they know is based on Sean's extensive research. It makes for such better content than the monotony of other interviews.
He actually puts thought and care into his guests and treats them as actual people, with interests. They are so happy to be in a conversation and not an interrogation.
its crazy how even in civilized middle european countries you hear stories about clubs in remote villages that have rivalries where thd fans beat themselves to deaths edge...this sport actually attracts the biggest cavemen supporters in some places on earth
I love this idea for interviews, nothing too formal, just two friendly people having some spicy wings together and chatting about stuff. Sean also makes it fun with his impressive questions.
I'm not gonna lie, at first I came to this videos just to watch celebrities suffer with the hot sauces, but when I realized how awesome and original Sean's questions were I fell in love with the show...
The producers on this show are the BEST. The questions are always so interesting. Watching people sweat over Da Bomb (spoilers, they don't like it) wouldn't be half as interesting without these great questions. KUDOS.
Matt Damon really looks like your average generic FPS lead guy, for him to essentially turn that down cause he wants a more memorable experience like Myst gained him quite a bit of kudos to me.
About Thundercat's question, I've always found it amazing how much of a difference the soundtrack makes. Even if you aren't actively listening to it, it brings the whole thing together. Try turning the music off during a cutscene or an epic fight and see how big of an impact it has. Dead Space is a great example.
There are games and games. Some are built to be without almost any music, and some add an enormous feeling to the game with the music. As he said, I cannot picture having the same adrenaline rush in mario when I pick up the star if it wasnt for the fast, cheery music.
The way all the guests truly enjoy the interview makes me see them in a different way, more relaxed and happy to be there. Sean and his team really did something amazing here.
Low key Sean Evans is the best interviewer of our generation, maybe of all time. He doesn't just ask the standard "what is it like being so great" fodder, he digs and find questions the person really *enjoys* answering.
Gotta love how humble Sean is. Every time he's praised for his interviewer skills, he reacts like it's the first time he's been told that, when it's anything but.
Sean evans and his team are changing the game and setting a new standard in interviews. People won’t settle for the late night shitty banter anymore we want this!
It's always so good to see the guests faces brighten up when they get hit with a great question. People just love when they are asked about something they really are passionate and they don't get the chance to talk about.
I LOVE, LOVE seeing Sean get his praise. Dude is the interviewer of interviewers. He respects the person he's interviewing by deep diving in questions and doing a shit ton of research and it shows. Respect and nothing less. 💯
not only are these some of seans best questions, these questions yield amazing answers which is why hot ones is SO popular; sean really gets these artists to open up about their lives and what they actually think about their work and the world they live in. so well done. great compiliation
Jak ovasaur in the context of why it was said I agree. I understand where the others that have commented are coming from but as tragic and brave as those situations are, they don't apply to entertainment aspect of it. Although constructive criticism is great, those critics that get popular by only pointing out flaws have ruined the point of critics. The quote is a powerful statement if taken the way its was intended.
@@boycebible3344 I mean this line of thinking can be applied to the entertainment business. Say if something is so popular that you make yourself look like an idiot by giving it critic. But yeah, that's outside the context the statement was used in here.
I love that Anthony Mackie's little bit, he's so happy to get to talk about fishing on the set of the Avengers movies and it adds so much when you watch Falcon & Winter Soldier and see that for his character fishing was a large part of his life before he joined the military. Reality feeding fiction in a very nice way that rewards those in the know
Sean and crew always have the best questions, he's severely underrated as an interviewer just because of the "joke" premise of his channel, but he is SUPER solid and always brings the research. Just well done to all the crew, really.
Undertaker is actually wholesome outside of the ring. Very cheery guy. I remember he was all smiles and giggle and then a kid asked him to do the eye. His face change almost instantaneously.
This is such a brilliant interview regime. Breaking the celebrities down physically with hot sauce, then hitting them intelligently or emotionally with amazing questions. It creates some of the most true and vulnerable moments
It must be such a breath of fresh air for these people in interviews. I imagine most interviewers ask the same old questions all the time but Sean and the team come up with some of the greatest questions
Sean is a conversationalist, even on videos where he’s not interviewing and just being a guest his questions take cues from what the other person just said
Amazing to see another compilation! Absolutely love it. Just missing the question to David Harbour about white tree frogs where he bursts out laughing and goes on about how Sean does amazing research.
Honestly, the best part about these questions for me is seeing the interviewee’s eyes light up and that smile spread across their face as they go, “Wow, that question is amazing”
I think the whole point of the show, and what makes it so special, is that it’s so humanizing. Celebrities get asked the same ten questions in almost every interview they do. Sean, on the other hand, takes his time to genuinely get to know them. It’s amazing.
That's should be the proper way of doing it. Though I can't blame the mainstream media for doing the common questions. They're usually running on limited time. The Hot Ones platform provides a better avenue for more humanizing interviews. It just comes off as a friendly conversation. Big question though: where does Sean get his info!?
This is the proof to why almost no one dislikes "Hot Ones", even the guests like to be there, Sean isn't invasive, hostile or rude. He always tries to get a question that makes the guest express their own feeling about something and there's always at least 1 chuckle, laugh or smile from the guests because of a question
It's so sweet to see how moved the celebrities are when someone asks about something that really matters to them and that's an essential but often overlooked part of their story. It's such a treat to watch.
The genius thing about the spicy sauces is it breaks down the defenses of the interviewee, thus making them more susceptible to certain questions. Genius genius.
"... how did you know that?..."
".. he's been dead for 10 years..."
I love this.
It's fucked but fuck it
Well... yes.. but no
When life hands you lemons, just say fuck the lemons and bail.

I'm sure he talks to their team and family members for him to know something that isn't public
I think Paul Rudd hit the nail on the head in his episode when he said "You're a really good interviewer, you don't even need the hot sauce." And he's absolutely right.
He said in an interview with I believe Kelly Clarkson that him, and his Creative Partner Chris, do the wings to make the interviews more entertaining.
People come for the wings, stay for Sean's amazing interviewing skills
The wings/hot sauce makes the guest feel connected as a brother-in-arms in pain kinda thing.
Man I love Paul Rudd. Dude’s just such a genuinely nice guy.
Yeah "what are your top four cured meats" is really getting under their skin
Little do they know, Sean gets all his info through sheer violence and intimidation. He has a lead, he tracks them down, then he force feeds them The Last Dab until they give up the info.
i thought he forced fed them Da Bomb?
Waterboarding with hot sauce
LMFAO 😂☠️😂☠️😂☠️
😂😂
Force feeding the last dab to make people talk is not that good of an idea: how are they supposed to speak if they're choking and agonizing?
2:27 I love the barely disguised fear in his voice 💀 “…h-how did you know that? He couldn’t have told you, he’s been dead for 10 years”
Sean conformed to be a necromancer
I’m like a proud mom watching Sean impress everyone with his questions lol
I was thinking exactly the same
Right??!!!
He’s deff channeling his inner Nardwar.
Yep, it brings a tear to my eye 😢 our boy is all grown up

The only reason I would want to become a celebrity is just so I can be interviewed by Sean and have that “Woah how did you know that?!” reaction

@@boycebible3344 I mean this line of thinking can be applied to the entertainment business. Say if something is so popular that you make yourself look like an idiot by giving it critic. But yeah, that's outside the context the statement was used in here.
I love that Anthony Mackie's little bit, he's so happy to get to talk about fishing on the set of the Avengers movies and it adds so much when you watch Falcon & Winter Soldier and see that for his character fishing was a large part of his life before he joined the military. Reality feeding fiction in a very nice way that rewards those in the know
Sean and crew always have the best questions, he's severely underrated as an interviewer just because of the "joke" premise of his channel, but he is SUPER solid and always brings the research. Just well done to all the crew, really.
I think Sean is the most dedicated interviewer ever. Unique questions, real eye contact, honest enthusiasm and so friendly attitude.
Thank you so much for including their answers and not just their reactions. This is a top tier compilation. Great job!
Undertaker is actually wholesome outside of the ring. Very cheery guy. I remember he was all smiles and giggle and then a kid asked him to do the eye. His face change almost instantaneously.
The way the guests' faces light up when hearing the questions is the feeling we all need everyday in our lives. :D
We're all just NPCs and Sean is the main character, he's on his 80th playthrough as of now
It's awesome to see their faces light up as he's asking some of the questions because they have not had someone ask them about it before lol
When Sean starts a question with “I know that you…” just run… he knows too much
This is such a brilliant interview regime. Breaking the celebrities down physically with hot sauce, then hitting them intelligently or emotionally with amazing questions. It creates some of the most true and vulnerable moments
Sean knows all the answers to everything, he's just doing the show for us
I can’t stop smiling when I see the guests faces light up to a good question, what a stud of a host!
It must be such a breath of fresh air for these people in interviews. I imagine most interviewers ask the same old questions all the time but Sean and the team come up with some of the greatest questions
Sean Evans is what every, and I mean E-V-E-R-Y interviewer should be!
i love seeing the spark in all the guests’ eyes when they get to talk about their passions that aren’t what they’re famous for
Sean is hands down the Best interviewer there is right now! He has a care and genuine intrigue in his guests.
5:47 Definitely my favorite. Ask a man about his favorite fishing moment and his eyes light up
Sean is a conversationalist, even on videos where he’s not interviewing and just being a guest his questions take cues from what the other person just said
That reaction by Taker when Sean starts the question is awesome. That's just pure epic surprise in his fac.
Amazing to see another compilation! Absolutely love it. Just missing the question to David Harbour about white tree frogs where he bursts out laughing and goes on about how Sean does amazing research.
dah can't believe i missed that one
Honestly, the best part about these questions for me is seeing the interviewee’s eyes light up and that smile spread across their face as they go, “Wow, that question is amazing”
I guess the trick is, ask the question the celebrity wants to answer, but is never asked.
I think the whole point of the show, and what makes it so special, is that it’s so humanizing. Celebrities get asked the same ten questions in almost every interview they do. Sean, on the other hand, takes his time to genuinely get to know them. It’s amazing.
That's should be the proper way of doing it. Though I can't blame the mainstream media for doing the common questions. They're usually running on limited time. The Hot Ones platform provides a better avenue for more humanizing interviews. It just comes off as a friendly conversation.
Big question though: where does Sean get his info!?
@@mistermastermind528 People close to the interviewee most likely.
I love seeing them smile when he asks them questions about their interests
3:46 Matthew Mcconaughey's laugh lmaooo
This is the proof to why almost no one dislikes "Hot Ones", even the guests like to be there, Sean isn't invasive, hostile or rude. He always tries to get a question that makes the guest express their own feeling about something and there's always at least 1 chuckle, laugh or smile from the guests because of a question
I’d love to see Sean interview his team, and ask them questions about previous guests
Yes!!!
It's so sweet to see how moved the celebrities are when someone asks about something that really matters to them and that's an essential but often overlooked part of their story. It's such a treat to watch.
The genius thing about the spicy sauces is it breaks down the defenses of the interviewee, thus making them more susceptible to certain questions. Genius genius.
The way Takers face lights up shows the effort you put in pays off. Love watching these
these shits SLAP, i be smiling through the whole thing
Grammar is a lost art.
@@georgehutto please do excuse my grammar oh mighty scholar, I seem to have mistaken a compilation of people eating hot wings for a literary review
@@georgehutto lel wut dis the interwebz
@@marc0-237 Ignoring the other guy, you did use the "habitual be" wrong tho.
@@Aajaaha sue me
Lmao Matthew McConaughey laugh is so perfect 😂😂😂😂
