7. David Cross Interviewed By A Drunk Dude
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=GDcel8p0yIY Ahead of a stand-up gig, a "journalist" manages to snag an interview with David Cross, though it's incredible to believe the guy was able to talk his way into getting five minutes with the guy, especially as it's evident from seconds in that he's completely wasted. Cross asks him what his name is, and he retorts, "I write under the name Gordon Downs, but my real name is, uh, Senator Drinks-A-Lot", immediately causing Cross to lose all faith that he was actually going to have a discussion of any substance whatsoever. Downs asks Cross a few questions with scarce coherence, while Cross is gracious and patient to begin with, though clearly gets rattled by this idiot's bizarre line of questioning the further it progresses. At the end of the clip, Downs barely seems able to operate his tape recorder, and Cross then steals the guy's notes for some reason. Confusing and embarrassing, but Cross comes off as a pro.
