Jordan Peterson & Matthew McConaughey! (Parody)

hi i have the good fortune of speaking with one of america's and the world's possibly most prominent actors matthew mcconaughey he's uh been regarded by his colleagues as a pleasure to work with and it's not bad to look at to say the least so i'd like to bring on matthew i'm here to see you you're not interviewing me buddy i mean we're on we're on the same we're on the same page you know you open the book of life we're both on page 48. right well your radio stations turn to mine both listening to 103 5 kiss fm we're both doing the same things well let's turn it a little bit a little bit to your new book green lights and how that came about how that started for you and what that journey was like writing it well journey's the right word to use they said i need a ghostwriter i said i'm not a ghost yet i'm still a human being so what i did was i went out to the desert with 45 journals and i'm sure you would agree with me i filled out every single journal in every single language i could think of english spanish even a made-up language i called mcconaughey's what i learned was they're all the same your past and your future are inverted of each other you start born you're not alive before you're born yes for me it's all about feedback it's what the earth gives me it's what i give the earth it's what the earth nourishes me with i put water in the earth i get seeds plants tomatoes i eat the tomato and i put the tomato back in the earth i want to turn the conversation over to some of your films and some of the films i've been watching lately so your physical transformations and a lot of these roles are quite significant substantial to say the least by what process did you go about transforming your body you know to get into shape for for some of these roles i mean your back stomach even your nipples are glistening in the wind you know how did you accomplish that i took a trip to zimbabwe when i was 15 and i had no money no food no water because i didn't want any food or water in that journey i found the only thing that transforms your body is your mind the only thing that transforms your mind is your environment right the only thing that changes your environment is the way you look at your environment and the only way to look at your environment differently is by changing your body so it's actually you do need to change your body in the beginning in order to change it in the end so it's kind of a whole big loopsy dupesy uh upsy turvzy i have to admit that whatever you did over the course of you know those early days and getting in shape really worked man you know michaela and i we watch those movies man frame by frame and i don't mean it in that way but you know i'm saying if if i did i would you know so oh well thank you i mean i appreciate that but that's what i would say i'd like to turn the conversation over to some of your notable performances over the years especially the ones i've been struck by in particular so if you want to talk about that when i was working on dallas buyers club it was well you know you know we could talk about that and you know but i meant some of the early rom-coms you know i mean how to lose a man in 10 days you know that was really something how did you prepare for ben in that scenario in that case uh well ben was um he was uh he was like the funny funny guy oh man he was really something you know he he really you know he he did everything she was trying to really get him to to lose her you know she was doing everything you know that the radical feminist movement was trying to get her to do and he was not buying it at all man you know and you you played that quite well right and you i mean i had to do that in order to sort of build the confidence to do like true detective and then true to tech i'd say the radical feminists today you know they're telling you how to lose a man in 10 minutes or 10 seconds even you know that movie was about losing a guy in 10 days and she couldn't even do it and i think it really articulated the necessity for stable relationships you know when you you pulled that off quite well you know and it was quite fun to watch you know i see what you're saying stable relationships that's what builds us and when i was when i was filming interstellar it's all about stable relationships and i thought that's where i grew as an actor right well you know that's an interesting film i mean it's more science fiction it's out of my wheelhouse i'm more of a clinical psychologist which brings me also to failure to launch you know how you did trip i mean tell me about trip and the process that you had to go through to develop trip in failure to launch failure to launch uh well that was sort of the beginning of my journey you know whereas before i was you know enlightened i think what failure to launch did was they brought me to contact and contact brought me to interstellar i'll tell you what it did it gave me a bloody laugh man you know because i've been you know coaching people for many many years on how to launch their own lives and their careers and i think it really spoke to that deep level of human development that's lacking you know spent a lot of time a lot trying to get people to launch their own lives and determine the path that they should set forward to be productive members of society so what trip did man you know that was really something and sarah jessica parker didn't have it easy there too what was it like working with her well you know i'd love to talk about consciousness if you were down or would you rather talk about sarah jessica well consciousness you know when she did sex in the city you know the movies i thought they really lacked consciousness you know sure yeah um so i think you're getting that is being enlightened finding your vision driving the car of your life you would say more like planning you know planning your life planning you know the green lights you can't plan the green lights all you have to do is you can plan the next step i didn't plan to be in wolf of wall street on the subject of planning you know who did a good job planning was the wedding planner jlo i thought that was fantastic a phenomenal performance really quite believable so uh yeah yeah i mean she's great not a badass either
