I read a piece about Amelia Dimoldenberg, who, for 10 years, produces a YouTube channel chronicling her dates at London chicken shops. Her dates include Elmo, Synthia Erivo, Jennifer Lawrence, Sabrina Carpenter, Ryan Reynolds, and others. I love this show!
British humor. I love the dry, awkward, deliciously witty, and absurdity of British humor. The title of the videos, “Chicken Shop Date” alone is hilarious — a chicken shop is not where you go on a first date in London.
The Questions! Interviewing is an art. It’s like music. An opening and hard hitting starting question gives way to a meaty answer which gives way to a lighter un-related question which gives way to an out-of-the-box answer which gives way to a harder more cerebral question… the dance continues. Interview shows like “Chicken Shop Date” or “Hot Ones” or even “Between Two Ferns” gives an aspiring interviewer so many ideas for how to engage an interviewee and bring out the best in them.
Question: “What object would you be?”
Keke Palmer: “A rock…” her explanation is awesome.
