Internet Dream Lounge
The Internet Dream Lounge is an ongoing podcast series, hosted on YouTube. The podcast is known for interviewing people with a sizable following over the internet. The host of the podcast is R. Merryweather (aka Merryweathery), a Danish artist.[1]
On 4 September 2017, Chris retweeted Merryweathery, who announced that Chris would be the next guest star for the podcast. Despite the announcement's broadcast date set for the following week, days before the expected release, Merryweather went on to announce the delay of the video; however, he was accepting additional questions for the interview. Based on one of Chris' Facebook posts, he participated in the interview on or prior to 22 September.[2]
Chris stated that he accepted the interview for the following reasons:[3]
- He was not pressed on sensitive issues.
- He was paid.
- Merryweathery agreed to help Chris's Sonichu business as a "social media manager."
On 5 September, Merryweathery showed up on the Kiwi Farms in defense of the interview, upon receiving criticism from users that he was not going to get any new information out of Chris. He revealed to an extent the contents of the interview, notably an "interesting answer" from Chris with regards to the identity of the Magical Man.[4]
