"I would have sex with a tiger" "what if the tiger got pregnant" "I would raise that child as my own" -Eric Andre

Eric Andre is the embodiment of what boomers fear about millennials

"What's your secret talent?" "I can.... 69..... Larry King whenever I want." "No you cannot."

When Larry reads off the cards, Eric goes for surreal. When he talks conversationally, Eric dishes. Two geniuses

This is just a more realistic version of the Joker and Murray conversation.

"I've never even hugged a girl, I'm a virgin" "I don't doubt that" Christ.

I love how Eric makes every interview feel like the Eric Andre Show

Larry king is in heaven right now still trying to understand this interaction

Did i seriously just hear Larry King ask "Do you believe in legalizing ranch"

I like how Larry hates the whole interview but then gets really into the topic of Eric killing himself. Edit: Rest in peace to the King 👑

RIP Larry King, this is one of my favorite interviews ever.

What Larry didn't realize is that he already was on Eric Andre's show. That's how much Eric turned the tables and controlled this interview.

"Im trying to make a connection with you and youre just glued to the cards" I love how human Eric Andre is

I think Larry missed it. Eric talks about being a temp and quitting the music industry because it doesn't make any sense. He gave Larry an in, and he didn't take it. Eric essentially admitted embracing irony and nihilism because his earnest efforts got him to a dead end.

Love how Eric ask how far Larry’s gotten with a girl, while Larry literally got married 8 times.

I guess we will never see Larry king on the Eric Andre show :'(

Weirdly, I think Larry King was the perfect person to interview Eric Andre.

It's genius, notice how he answers the questions seriously everytime Larry doesn't use the cards. The second Larry picks up the cards Eric changes completely.

I love hearing the crew dying of laughter in the back when Larry’s trying so hard to be serious

9:47 this entire interview is crazy but hearing Larry King Ask what would happen if he impregnated a tiger is so incredibly absurd. this is great.

you know it's good when Larry King's crew is heard laughing throughout the the video.

I could almost believe Larry King is Eric Andre's disappointed father

Eric: I’m a Jew Larry: ok I’ll pay attention again

Larry: "What is ranch?" Eric: "I'm in the hot seat now, Larry." Larry (with more emphasis): "What is ranch?" Eric: "Ranch is a sauce that you put on a salad." (Shrugs) "Surprised you didn't know that."

"How would you use 'bird up' in a sentence?" *BIRD UP.*

Dude he’s turning this interview to the Eric Andre show

It blows my mind how awake Larry was at that age. He wasn't just mentally healthy, he was completely fresh. Amazing.

8:22 "1960 Democratic Convention" "President Taft." "I can tell you're a historian." LOL

Larry's crew laughing in the background basically says it all. It was like completely different sides of the spectrum colliding creating something magical

"Love it when you get the intellectuals" Larry king doesn't even understand he is on the Eric andre show the whole time..

also i love how larry plows through most of andre's bizarre, provocative one-liners but randomly decides to go with a handful of them in complete seriousness. he seemed genuinely interested in the details of tiger impregnation, free-hand circumcision and televised skydiving suicide.

Larry: "where do you want to go with this talent?..." Eric: "...jail" Why is he so genius 🤣

Eric becomes a very good guest when Larry puts the cards down, but when Larry has cards in his hand, Eric sidetracks the whole thing lol.

i like how once larry puts the cards down... eric starts to answer his questions seriously. lol what a play

Got a little emotional when he said “I’ll be on your show, Eric.”

This is like a father trying to contain his dysfunctional yet oddly hilarious demon child.

Larry: How would you use bird up in a sentence? Eric: Bird Up! Larry: ... Eric: ...

You do not interview Eric Andre, Eric Andre interviews you.

I think I figured it out... Eric studied music all his life, and went to Berklee, but gave it up because Justin Bieber exists, is popular, and makes money. In his mind "High Art" has no purpose, because "Low Art" exists, and sells. That's the foundation of his philosophy, and approach to entertainment. Larry King is the absolute opposite end of the spectrum, so seeing these two together is really something.

It's art; non sequitur, surrealist art. the point is people are sick of traditional talk shows, and their uninteresting dialogues that could put you to sleep. the point is its spontaneousness keeps it fresh and entertaining. the show itself is a artwork for the guests as well, jolting the guests with intense emotions and a sense of confusion; it's like a surreal feeling of reality and expectations breaking down and entering a dream world, a glimpse into the unconscious, it shows the guests reacting as their true selves, "unscripted", to something they had no idea was coming, which is a good way to get a sense of a someone's personality and even morals, without asking all the serious questions. And it's funny.

Larry: "I have to be objective" Eric: "No you don't"

Unstoppable Force VS Immovable Object

A lot of people are talking about Larry and Eric being so different but I honestly was surprised how much Larry humored him. He had a great sense of humor.

Larry is good. This is the closest Eric has ever been to completely candid in an interview.

"Ranch is a sauce you put on a salad Larry" lmao

7:19 When Eric describes Hannibal: "He's semi-normal until you talk to him. Then you realise that he's also a sociopath" LMAO

19:23 “I’m trying to have a connection with you and you’re glued to the cards”

"What is this, a court?" "YEAH 😀" You cant give Eric even an inch lol

"Why does my pee-pee come out yellow?" -Martin Luther King Jr.

can see eric andre's heart breaking when he starts suspecting larry doesn't like him. awwww.

Larry was low key having a blast.

I'm surprised at how funny Larry King is. "What if the tiger got pregnant?" had me rolling.

“I set out to make the worst talk show ever made.” Little did he know he would make the best talk show ever made

it seems to me Larry King don't trust like that

Man, I was so looking forward to when Larry would guest on Eric’s show

I was absolutely dying through all of this. I'm glad Larry mentioned Andy Kaufman, because Eric Andre is up there with Kaufman. When I see someone like Eric get interviewed by Larry King-something that most people revere and treat like some sacred event-just act like he's hopping into the car with a friend for a cruise I know everything is going to be alright with the world. You could tell Larry was happy the episode wasn't just your run of the mill interview. This was a real treat of an episode!

Eric Andre is literally the embodiment of Chaotic Neutral

"the taint is the root chakra" "when someone is tickling your taint, its a rush" i fukin died

The entire staff losing it in the background is my favorite thing about this interview. Probably the greatest day they ever had at work.

Lmao Larry tried so hard not to laugh after Eric said “that’s called a turkey”

"name one convention." "1960 democratic convention" "President Taft!"

This interview reminds me a lot of my conversations with my therapist

Well, had to come back and watch this today because it still kills me. RIP Larry, sad we'll never see you on The Eric Andre Show now, but at least we got this interview.

it s a shame he never came to his show

I have witnessed two varieties of elder god engaged in a dialogue

was a bit surprised that King seemed to actually enjoy Eric being on the show. Quality interview

As crazy and boisterous Eric can be he actually is a very smart knowledgeable guy if you really listen to what he’s saying. He has a way with words and knows all these crazy random things

Larry King was a Gem, may he rest in peace. He had the patience of Job to interview Eric Andre. I recently seen Eric's new movie, 'Bad Trip'. It was disgusting and funny. Eric is the type of guy I could become good friends with because he doesn't seem to judge people and live his life.

8:04 "I've been to hundreds of conventions-" "PROVE IT"

I feel like Larry had this instantaneous moment of guilt when Eric was like "Yea, I'm Jewish."

RIP Larry Legend. My Nintendo switch account is called LarryKang because of this, my favorite interview ever.

The laughter off camera is so funny

His job is to poke the brains of the people he interviews, but what happens when he’s presented with a brain that pokes back?

little did we know Larry King was the terminator this whole time

I say this with the utmost sincerity... they’re a truly compelling duo.

His reactions to the social media questions are the best because larry is confused the whole time and Eric just acts confused

This is like the Dark Knight interrogating the Joker scene

How many people have managed to make Larry King uncomfortable? That’s not an easy thing to do. Eric Andre is a true surrealist.

The first clip I looked up when I found out Larry King passed. The man could talk to anyone, and this is the best example of it.

In my 38 years of living this is one of the greatest interviews I’ve ever seen. I keep coming back to this every so often especially if I’m feeling down.

He's proof that we're in a video game, he's the customized character

Eric actually starts giving a thoughtful interesting answer on music and Larry just yeah yeahs him again and moves on to the next question.

RIP Larry King. This is one of the first interviews that came to mind when I heard the news.

Larry laughing about Eric gathering a tiger baby is fantastic

This entire interview is them cutting eachother off

I think Eric Andre is the most human guy out there. All he wants is a connection, nothing else matters or can take his mind off of that. Mad respect for the guy.

Coming back to a lot of his interviews on the day of his death, and it brings me so much joy. Thank you for everything you've given us in your long and amazing life Larry. I will cherish your interviews for the remainder of my life.

18:30 Larry King saying "Sassy" is the absoloute best sound bite ive ever heard.

So evident that Eric doesn't enjoy interviewers that are there to simply "interview" and not develop some kind of connection. He just takes you deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole the more BS he hears.

they're both smart in very different ways and its so entertaining

Larry- “where do YOU wanna go with this talent?” Continues rambling Eric in the background- “jail.”

Larry never came on his show :(

Watching these two interact is like seeing two people from separate dimensions meeting for the first time

"he thinks the US government put bombs in the towers" literally the most tame idea he has ever had

I watched this and was surprised how well Larry stood up and conducted the interview. After some time, it was clear why he was one of the greats. Rest in Ranch, King

"You won't do full frontal on my show? Well I'm insulted.." -Eric Andre #goat

The way this interview falls apart is incredible.

Eric: "who you talking to?" Larry: **looks angrily at Eric** "The audience!"

I love this so, so much. If only Larry King had been a guest on Eric Andre's show, the universe would be complete. RIP Larry.

I come back to this every couple of months ✨
