We are all familiar with him as ‘Alan,’ the endearing rascal who started the Hangover trilogy by roofing his friends, but he is not always a cute person.

Yes, we are talking about an American actor and comedian, Zachary Knight Galifianakis, who has been conducting awkward interviews and berating some of the biggest stars in the world through his Between Two Ferns series for around the past ten years. We can’t deny that we have witnessed some of the most cringe-worthy moments on the internet due to this absurdist celebrity talk show, which was produced by the ‘Emmy-winning Funny Or Die.’ 

The show is entertaining despite its low production value and the increasingly invasive and offensive questions that the celebrities respond to with their own passive-aggressive retorts.

Even though everyone knows what’s going on, not a single person in the room even cracks a smile, and the tension in the air is unbearable. 

One of these roasts was directed at American actor and producer Matthew McConaughey, who also couldn’t help but become the target of a hilarious jab in Between Two Ferns, in which the Hangover actor interviews A-listers to restore his Hollywood reputation.

Zach Galifianakis roasted Matthew McConaughey in a hilarious interview

Let’s be honest: Zach Galifianakis is extremely funny. In addition to being generally absurd, he is renowned for the countless jokes that he contributes to his every comedy film. Because fans only require his side comments, jokes, and one-liners, he isn’t often cast as the main character.

The actor takes on the role of the most unnerving interviewer imaginable in his parody show Between Two Ferns. One such take was targeted at his guest Matthew McConaughey in 2019, when he sat across him and asked the American actor and producer awkward questions, forcing him to endure awkward pauses and mispronunciations. In other words, he puts the actor in a hilarious and odd situation.

The throwback video is from a conversation Galifianakis had in 2019, which was featured in the movie adaptation of his wildly successful web series talk show, Between Two Ferns.

As he joined the 53-year-old host on stage for the interview, McConaughey must have known he was in for a good time because The Campaign actor is better known for his brutal yet funny interviewing style. 

He is known for asking all the peculiar questions that nobody else would dare to ask anyone on screen.

Only he can react this way to Zach Galifianakis’ deadpan humor!

Since it debuted more than ten years ago, Between Two Ferns has become a cult favorite due to its distinct brand of deadpan humor, and intriguing ability to keep asking questions despite the subject’s fits of laughter.

Naturally, it was this talent that caused Matthew McConaughey to burst out laughing in the throwback video the actor shared on Instagram following his interview with Zach Galifianakis. Well, to note, this even included some extra interview outtakes with A Wrinkle in Time actor.

In the course of their conversation, Galifianakis questioned the A Time to Kill actor about the rumors he heard about his father dying while having s*x with his mother. He also heard that “he [McConaughey] wanted to go the same way,” so perhaps that is what he has known.

However, barely letting The Gentlemen star catch his breath, Galifianakis quickly jumped in to say

“You and your mom need to set up some boundaries.”

Well, that’s not true,McConaughey said.

The Netflix movie was created as a spin-off of this similar web series with the same title. That can surely brighten your day. So gather your snacks and get ready to binge-watch!
