Stephen somehow understood George's sci-fi rant as a crisis of faith, asked about it, and then just pulls out a random space project to restore George's faith. Next level interviewing.

Stephen, please do more interviews like these. It was far more entertaining and interesting hearing real thoughts and opinions than a 7 minute interview for a movie plug.

Its genuinely endearing that hes always so happy to talk about his work despite being asked about it for almost 20 years

Really weird hearing Fromsoft being brought up on a late night television show. I’m so happy for Miyazaki and the team for finally getting the recognition they deserve. I may have joined the community later than others, but I was still there before Elden Ring so seeing how far they’ve come just brings me so much joy… and also a bit of fear

I love how Stephen just let him talk without interrupting or trying to hurry him up.

I’ve never seen an interview of George before and wow. He’s incredible. Such a fun, quirky, and amazing person. He’s a legend.

My guy is an elite tier geek. May the american medical system keep him with us for many years to come.

Everytime someone tries to ask GRRM about inspirations or tips of writers he always speak about new modern writers that doesn’t have a big audience. It’s just so genuine everytime he does it and he’s so cool for doing it.

It's so amazing that this man has created these incredible worlds that have spawned so many jobs and sparked so many imaginations. There are UKpostsrs whose entire job is to deep dive into his work for fans. He's touched so many lives.

We often look at George as a fantastic storyteller and novelist but he’s also such an exceptional human being. God bless him.

This Is what you get when the host actually understands and is passionate about fantasy and science fiction. Excellent interview, thoughtful questions.

The way Stephen breathes hope into George after he addressed his very understandable pessimism was beautiful

It's always terrifying when an intelligent man is scared.

@steveng8251 Рік тому

I love how you made him comfortable enough to really share what his motivations are.. Well done sir.

@wrenlinwhitelight3007 Рік тому

He is every nerds hero. R.R. Martin is an-matched legend of fantasy story-telling. I'm so hyped whenever Stephen interviews him because he turns into a child again <3

Of all of the guests on this show, George is probably one of the guests I'd like to spend an evening with the most. He's just down to earth, interested and fully engaged in the subject.

I thought my growing pessimism about the future of humanity was just a symptom of my becoming "too online" of late. Hearing someone with GRRM's intelligence, sensibility and length and breadth of experience echoing my worries is both validating and terrifying. I hope people are listening.

I remember first time meeting George R.R. Martin, I didn't know who he was at the time. It was at a popular culture convention. All the other famous people had a special area where you had to pay to get an autograph or photo taken, and this gentle bearded man was on the main floor, signing books and chatting to people, and there was a long line. I still treasure the photo I took of him then, especially after reading most of his books. I started reading Scifi and fantasy in my teen years and cherish the adventure of traveling into the authors' imaginations. Sadly I find many modern Scifi sections in book stores don't carry books that broaden your horizon, but rather are just retellings of established brands.

This guy is a hero simply by writing out his fantasy. It’s amazing. He created so many jobs, both for movies and social media. He made such good art that has entertained millions. Man, what an actual hero

What a great interview, and the mention of Elden Ring was a delight, completely unexpected; huge FromSoft fan here. Thanks for asking him that Stephen.
