I met Danny at my local coffee shop. I am a total ass and said “Abed?”. He said " Danny. " and shook my hand. Thus confirming my status as Total Ass, and his as a mensch.
They don’t even have to be new, a good pair of socks fresh out of the drier is the best IMO. I avoid wearing new socks unwashed because there can be all sorts of nasty shit on them from the factory, shipping, warehouse, etc. that I’d rather not have rubbing against my skin.
They’re not made to eat, so who the hell knows what kind of chemicals they douse clothing in to keep them “fresh” and keep bugs out of them while they travel across the ocean in shipping containers. Agreed, wash the fuck out of them, first thing!
It might not necessarily be a bit but he was definitely setting Danny up with some softballs giving him room to do his thing; Larry King was a great interviewer.
He doesn’t come off that way in this interview. He seems like a rich old fuck who’s been so rich for so long that he genuinely struggles to understand how the poor plebs could possibly exist without private jets.
Oh he was for sure out of touch, he got hugely successful in the 70s and interviewed actual rich and powerful people, real world leaders and superstars. Over his career he interviewed over 50k people, everyone from Nelson Mandela to Eric Andre. Like the other commenter said, it was kind of his shtick to not prepare or learn too much about the guest so he’d “genuinely be curious” about them.
I’m not saying the dude was a saint, he was a womanizer and was married like 7 times, but he wasn’t born into money or anything. He was a little kid from Brooklyn whose dad died when he was 9 and it messed him up, he grew up poor as fuck until he lucked into radio in the 50s. He did end up seeing a lot of success, idk if he ever got private jet rich but I’m sure he traveled 1st class more than once.
Eat the rich and everything but also save your ire for someone that deserves it, an old dead interviewer seems pointless.
Danny Pudi also said “socks” and Larry King was not having it. Makes me think Danny would be cool to meet and Larry not at all.
You cannot meet Larry anymore though, not in this life.
Not with that attitude.
All you need is the right attitude… and a shovel.
I’d rather not meet Larry right now. I imagine it would be yucky and frightening and then eventually boring with a side of PTSD.
In fairness, “socks” is a pretty lame attempt at a joke answer.

To be fair, Abed would say “Abed” if he met the actor that played himself…

The interview they’re talking about
Edit: the smile he makes after saying socks it’s top notch
Yeah, a fresh pair of socks is pretty great. I’ve never met this dude but he seems like he’d be alright.
I’m wearing brand new socks right now. Feels great.

That makes me laugh every time. The meme really doesn’t do his delivery justice.
Is Larry King really that out of touch or is this a bit?
Larry King is no longer alive but I think he had an old school reporting style that he stuck with.
The delivery was incredible.
“Larry, I’m on Ducktales”

That description landed me on “Boomer Pete Davidson” which isn’t that far off.
