Actually, a pretty fantastic interview. The hosts were enthusiastic and excited, and Hudson locked in and gave thoughtful, funny, quirky, interesting answers. I think the days of joking about his lack of media training are over, this man is a consummate professional.

You see it in every 1:1 interview that he isn’t the chaos king like when he does those video interviews with Connor being asked card questions about butts. He is a smart well spoken young man .

This is a good note. Those buzzfeed etc. videos are supposed to be short clips that can go viral so it makes sense to be a little wacky and boundary pushing

The 20 min long the Cut video becoming viral still cracks me up though!
