Comedian John Mulaney ends his new Netflix special by reading aloud from an interview he doesn’t remember giving. Now, that writer is speaking out.
.” “I spent most of the interview thinking Mulaney was lightly trolling me—having a little fun with the idea that he was doing an interview about voicing an animated superhero pig.”
From Thorpe’s point of view, Mulaney’s off-the-cuff answers—made-up stories about haunted vacuum cleaner stores in Union Square; a pitch about a talk show that would essentially be a talk show—were just part of the joke. There were even times that Mulaney came across as introspective, he writes, like when he reflected on his position as an apolitical comic in a politicized era.
GQ ended up publishing the interview sooner than expected, after the news of Mulaney’s admittance to rehab broke in mid-December. A note about the timing was appended at the top, coloring the story. But when Thorpe ended up seeinghimself, after Mulaney was released from rehab and back on the stand-up circuit months later, he got to see his interview recontextualized live.
