Sitting on stage with Artie Lange felt like being a member of Billy Bob Thornton's band

I remember thinking, oh, this is what it feels like to be in [Billy Bob] Thornton's band. Just because I remember about that same month, I think, there was this viral clip of Billy Bob Thornton on a radio show talking about his music... and his bandmates just kind of sitting there and not really saying much and kind of taking it all in.

Perfectly describes the vibe of the viral 2009 Q Radio interview with Billy Bob Thornton.

I remember having this thought early on as it was kind of happening thinking, oh wow, you know this is, makes for a great television.

The segment's longevity as a viral clip suggests Rudd was correct about its entertainment value.

I think he's looser and funnier. ... when you start to just say, Oh God, I'm just going to tell you what's been going on... there's a, you feel freer. And when you're freer, you're kind of, you're just, you're a bit more approachable.

A subjective observation on character development.
