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 Internet personality.[1]

Prelude

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, Merryweathery went on to announce the delay of the video; however, he was accepting additional questions for the interview. Based on one of Chris's Facebook posts, he completed an interview on or prior to 22 September.[2] According to Merryweather, a re-recording was carried out on 3 October, for a 9th of October release.[3]

Chris stated that he accepted the interview for the following reasons:[4]

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.[5]

Transcript

Analysis

Merryweathery introduces Chris to the game Fuck, Marry, Kill, where the chosen person is given the name of three individuals, and has to decide on whom they would have sex with, marry, and kill. Presented with Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Donald Trump, Chris is swift to choose Clinton and Trump to marry and kill, respectively. In spite of the nonconsequential nature of the game, Chris is hesitant to straight up say he would "fuck Obama"–opting instead for a tamer verb. Though Chris claims to embrace the LGBT culture, Chris's discomfort may hint a Freudian slip on his attitude towards male homosexuality. In a second round, co-host Easy-K asks Chris to choose between Amy Rose, Rosechu and young Mary Lee Walsh, to which he selects to kill the human. In some point during the interview, Merryweathery will call Chris as Chris instead of Christine, surprisingly Chris Chan didn't seem to have notice since he normally tends to get annoyed when refer as a he.
