Nardwuar's Top Five Greatest Interviews

By MATTHEW SINGER
[Read a profile of Nardwuar here.]

Nardwuar vs. Mikhail Gorbachev (1993)

Nardwuar vs. Kurt Cobain (1994)

Nardwuar vs. Blur (2003)

Nardwuar vs. N*E*R*D (2008)

Nardwuar vs. Snoop Lion (2013)
Any of the encounters Nardwuar has had with Snoop over the years are worth watching. Initially, Snoop made a habit of stealing the props Nardwuar would bring to spur conversation (a Whispers record, a Redd Foxx doll), prompting Nardwuar to start presenting the items as gifts to his guests instead. But the two have developed quite a hilarious rapport, to the point that Snoop now refers to Nardwuar as “my Howard Cosell.”


SEE IT: Nardwuar and the Evaporators play the Know, 2026 NE Alberta St., with Thee Goblins and Red Shadows, on Friday, Sept. 27. 8 pm. 21+. Call venue for ticket information. The show will be followed by a presentation of Nardwuar’s best interviews.
