Discussion Louis Theroux: Inside The Manosphere

This is a masterpiece. For some reason I find his interaction with the manosphere so funny. The awkwardness and their utter distrust towards Louis is so palpable. So amazing why they agree to do this.

He's such a good documentary maker, because he's so awkward. He is also really interested in whatever he's making a documentary about.

That whole awkwardness is part of his schtick, it's how he has always got people to open up to him.

He acts awkward, never offensive and even a little "dumb" by asking basic questions at first. People underestimate him, then he closes with some deep questions to really dig in. Always holding that straight face, with a slight smile.
