Although you might think Chris is showing poor manners by wearing a hat indoors, you should know we conducted our interview under a beautiful moonlit sky, thanks to a flash tornado tearing the roof off of the bar moments before filming.
He is within his gentleman’s rights to be so behatted!
Next week: Homeland’s Damian Lewis
Tomorrow’s Speakeasy features me in conversation with Chris Hardwick.
The conversation was a little awkward, because I stood next to Chris as he sat on a stool, both of us facing forward and never making eye contact. Why did we do this? It’s hard to say now.
Hindsight being 20/20, we probably should have adopted a more traditional conversational posture. I hope history will judge us kindly.
So! Here is the trailer for a web series I’ll be hosting, where I chat with cool people over actual alcoholic drinks. We’ve shot a dozen of these so far and I am grateful to have been asked to host them. I got to have interesting conversations with strangers and friends alike.
It goes live on Monday 5/7!
